    For the people asking if a turbo is a worthwhile upgrade....

    Regarding emissions testing.... I don't know what is worse, the fact that I had to get emissions testing on a 30 year old diesel that never had any emissions equipment to start with, or the fact that the emissions testing standards are so low that a 30 year old diesel with no emissions...

    Expandabile Van Drivability

    It makes a big difference. The 934s are noticeably different from the cargo trucks. The tractor ' s short wheelbase also makes a huge improvement in driveability compared to the cargo trucks.

    WANTED - M816 Snatch Block AKA Tackle Block/Sheave Assembly

    I strongly suspect that some time in the last 7 years he found one... or doesn't need one any more. :)

    Tucson to OKC to Ft Riley to St Louis and back, within the next 10 days. SPACE AVAILA

    Anything I have can be delivered en route. Anything Carnac has can be delivered en route(go look at his M1061 trailer!). Also along the way we have Droprat, and Ryan, and Warthog and several others. Warthog is dumping a bunch of stuff so cheap that it's almost free - here's your chance to get...

    it isn't really a trailer....

    It isn't really a trailer. Note the diffs on the axles - they're powered (and have lockers even). This is the back half of a mk48/16, like a hemtt that hinges in the middle. The driveshaft is in the bed of my 5ton. The drawbar is a cobbled together piece to allow it to be towed by a truck, but...

    M923A2 Doing 80 MPH!!

    I splattered a coyote at highway speed otw back from Carnac's a few months ago. Never hit the brakes. In fact I didn't even have time to let off the accelerator. I had my 1ton Ram on towbars behind the M923A2. In response to your comment on driving speed: on a motorcycle I've always been of the...

    M923A2 Doing 80 MPH!!

    The thing about limits is you don't know exactly where they are until you exceed them. We can say the absolute limit is "somewhere above 55mph" but that could be 62mph or 81mph. Until you exceed that limit you can't accurately define it. Unfortunately, exceeding that limit results in...

    it isn't really a trailer....

    That's what I was thinking... the mother of all semi dollies :). Except that even without a trailer it reaches the max rated tow weight for the M939series cargo trucks, lol.

    it isn't really a trailer....

    ..and I have no idea why I bought it. It's a completely useless heavy thing. I have no idea what to do with it. I guess I'll just have to get the front half....

    My M1009, what to do...

    Wish you were closer. I'd MIG it for you for free if you did the prep work. Sandblasting the 5ton trucks is no problem. They're thick and hard to deform. But the cucv will warp on the wide flat spots. Sandblast with care... ospho may be a good idea as a final pretreatment prior to paint.

    CTIS Pneumatic Controller Question

    I doubt it's the controller. If they fail they go to 5 solid lights. Maybe Alexsha will chime in with more knowledge. ...

    Susanville Towing would probably be willing to go get them for you. They've done loadouts for me out of Herlong...

    Is it considered poaching to deer hunt with a bumper?
