The hoist is built by Rugby I think, off of an old GMC single axle dump that had a Gvw 35000. As far as maxing out the hoist, I've had over 10 yards of 6 inch minus on it and no problems dumping. The hoist sub frame is only 10 feet so I use cribbing blocks on top of the truck frame to support...

Installed a sub frame hoist on mine.

Is there anything in particular I need to know about mounting the rear axle to the front axles.

How does she handle a load? Now I want to do this to my m931. Steal the hydraulics and pto from my other 925. Switch between a dump and a tractor, and I'll have a wet kit if I ever get a dump trailer or a lowboy. Never seen a single axle 4x4 tractor yet.

I didn't mess with the washer. I simply removed the arm that makes contact with the washer on that air valve by loosening the Allen head screw that holds it on, and the little arm pops right off. Then I can decide when I want the front axle engaged whether in high or low range with the dash switch.

Have you loaded it yet?

Which selector valve did you use? I need one so that I can switch between my dump hoist and my winch on my m925.

That is exactly what I'm looking to do to extra m925. I have a dump hoist off a old f700 but same idea.

M35A2-AZ do you have the part number for that valve?

Thanks for the update. A 4 axle deuce tractor... interesting. How'd you mount the 3rd axle? Is it steerable?

I was wondering what happened to those trucks. Looks awesome. Would have been nice to win one of those trucks. Just got a little expensive for my tastes.

You got any pictures of how you mounted the winch? Want to take the winch from a m925 and Mount it like this on my m931.

I put a sub frame hoist on mine.

Remember that the farther forward you mount the hoist, the more it can lift. But at a decreased dump angle, especially on a 14 ft. Bed. I have a m931 that I plan to Bob in the near future. I plan to put a 8-10 ft bed on it. My brother has a f350 with a 10 ft dump on it. The truck and bed are...

It is a heil sub frame hoist. Right now I'm using the winch valve to control it. Only problem is since it is an open center valve, once you release the control lever, the bed will automatically lower. Adding a second closed center valve to better control the hoist are currently in the works.

I think it'll depend on how often you need it, and amount of material you plan on moving with it. If you want to move alot as quickly as possible, and be able to do it consistently, Then I would recommend a pto driven pump with heavy duty hoist under the bed like the set up I got on my m925a1...

If you need hydraulics, look into a m932a2. It's already got the pump. Could always add a larger hydraulic tank if need be.
