    Bobbed 939 factory length

    Treed, I was just looking for it under your threads. I actually kinda like the length. Now that’s a full length m923 bed?

    Bobbed 939 factory length

    I guess I should have clarified a little bit. I want a real bobbed 5 ton, however my time constraints may not allow that, so I was wondering what a factory length 925 with a rear axle removed looked. I kind of like them with the deuce bed, but I want to retain the drop sides. I want to see if...

    Bobbed 939 factory length

    So I searched through 370 threads and several hundred pages to no avail. After having my bobbed deuce and my m1078 I want a bobbed 5 ton. The closest thing I have seen to what I’m looking at is a 5 ton with m35 bed. But I’m thinking about a 5 ton with factory bed and chassis length. Has anybody...

    Another bobber thread!!

    Then why reply? I mean honestly? This isn’t an opinion thread, I’m like looking for real world results.

    Another bobber thread!!

    I guess the point blank answer is, it can do whatever it wants in 6x6 but I don’t want a 6x6 truck? I want a 4x4, 5 ton. I don’t need, nor desire 3 axles? A 5 ton with rated tires and springs will do just fine. If I needed a tandem this would be an m931a2 dump thread not and m931a2 bobber...

    Another bobber thread!!

    Maybe it’s just me, but over the years I have had way more luck with all wheel drive dumps then 2wd. This isn’t an end all be all for off road use, or something I think can magically not get stuck. It is simply a better alternative then a factory dump to lessen the headache I get when I have to...

    Another bobber thread!!

    Several reasons actually. Scratch the bobed 5 ton itch, and dump in one swipe, a tandem is overkill for the bed size. The truck will mostly be used to move horse **** to the landscape place that takes it, and stone here and there from my local supply yard to my house 500 feet down the road...

    Another bobber thread!!

    From what looking I have done I’m looking at a 9 or 10 foot bed with 3-4 foot sides. That’s what seems to be on most 5 tons. I don’t really like adding springs either but I’m almost positive they could add a new top thicker leaf. I need to stop and see what my options are but the guy wants the...

    Another bobber thread!!

    Now first let me State I have searched. And I’m not finding exactly what I’m searching for. I know there are a few options out there, mrap, and 5 Ton fronts, full air. When I bobbed my deuce there was a plethora of after market parts out there, saddles, perches, blocks, hangers, etc. with the...

    Do we have an official Bobbed Deuce picture thread? If not, here it is! Post em!

    I thought about a lift block, but with as much weight as I have put in this truck, the 105 springs are not ideal. I found a company out west who will make me a set of custom springs at any rating I desire for about 600 for the pair. I just need to get around to measuring for them. That and...

    My heap, working on the rear squat here when I decide I want to drop the coin on custom springs. http://i261.photobucket.com/albums/ii73/inline6359/99CDF4C1-BC16-447E-8ECC-201CC4DB594B_1.jpg Edit: apparently Photobucket changed how you insert photos?

    Hmmwv shopping, have a few questions

    After some looking it seems it's going to be hard to find what I want. I enquirer about 7 trucks over the last few days, either nobody would respond when I enquired about the S/N or if t was purchased as off road use only or were very vague like they didn't know what they had. I'm about to say...

    Hmmwv shopping, have a few questions

    Thank you. So pretty much what I'm seeing is that for what people are asking for these 998's and the 1038's I'm better off just buying a 1124 or 1045 in the auction and being legit. The price these people are asking is what the legit ones seem to be going for.

    Hmmwv shopping, have a few questions

    Im not sure where your getting the problem is with the state? I'm not asking how to tile one. I'm asking how I know one is or potentially could have been a truck sold as off road use only. And a test drive and inspection isn't going to do that. Research only goes so far, for instance I looked...

    Hmmwv shopping, have a few questions

    To me it matters because I don't want to deal with the legalities of a vehicle sold with an off road use contract should something happen. I understand there are ways to obtain a title, legal or not. Dosent make it any less of a liability should something happen, they may go after the seller but...

    Hmmwv shopping, have a few questions

    Recently I have gotten the itch again for a Humvee, but before I sell one of my pride and joys I want to know a few things. In no way am I asking how to circumvent the off road only designation they are sold with, but the recent infux of adds on Craigslist with these "titled" vehicles has me...
