Chains are good-- but the best combination to have are both chains and air-lockers. And really I think RUD chains are better than the cheap-o-stuff I put on this truck for fun. For my Arctic Documentary I'm putting Supergreifsteg chains on it. They are very aggressive chains. The present ones...
Well, I first wanted to put CTIS on it. But, I've since decided against it after talking to the manufacturer of the system and understanding the real issues of it. So, I've settled on the following modifications:
1) ARB Air Lockers in each axle, new Ouverson shafts, gear sets and girdles...
What? I'm not sure I understand your statement... If you are talking about modifying my truck-- I have almost all the parts now that i need. I've been a little slow on collecting them all. Some have been hard to find.
Really you need a degree to understand that a weakness is a flaw? I thought that was just simple lexical issue? ****... first I learn that the US never lost the Vietnam War. And now I'm learning that Flaw is some how a super technical term like "superposition or entanglement".... But good to...
1800 or so years ago Hannibal won all of his battles in the Second Punic War against Roman. In fact in one day he killed more Romans than anybody in History... He still lost the Second Punic War.
Winning the battles is only important if they help you achieve your overall objective. After...
I'm not going to be baited into this argument. What ever you want. The US Always Wins... The Trucks are just brilliant in design. I know nothing. I'm just a trouble maker... All of you are so much better...
1) I knew two of my ARB's would come on Thursday because well Seven Springs Complete was nice enough to send me the UPS tracking information. So I was able track my packages delivery times from the moment they sent them out the door in Iowa from their warehouse until it reached my front door...
That's not politics... He asked did the M35A2 serve in a war that we lost-- well technically speaking the Vietnam Conflict was the first time out for the M35's and we lost it. So, yes, we lost a conflict in which the M35 served. I am simply stating a fact. I don't care about the reasons for the...
I have some problems with your statements given the design of the truck itself. But sure I'll bite it isn't an off road truck. So what than are 2.5 ton trucks doing with things like winches, extreme fording capability, extreme suspension travel, ground clearance and 6wd? These aren't features...
Well read the specs at Tatra.A.s...
And the Tatra design has been around since like 1923.... The basic central tube and swinging independent half-shafts. They've used this design on trucks since the 1930's up to today.
These trucks can work in areas with a full load that would amaze you.
Actually, the Tatra T-815 or T-813 trucks do everything that M35A2 does: fuel tankers, recovery trucks, cargo, personal carriers, and so on and so forth. They run in 6x6, 8x8, 10x10 or 12x12 configurations. The point I'm making is simply this, the Tatra Trucks were designed to operate well both...
Yeah, well I would disagree with this statement: "... conclusions would have passed a cost/benefit analysis." After all every one of our competitors use air-lockers in their trucks-- how expensive can it be. The facts are simple if you want a truck that works well off-road use Lockers. If you...
