Good luck, thanks. Post some pics of your new truck.

Just read in the TM that the NHC 250 takes 47 quarts of coolant, but a search of the forum said 6 Gallons. Can anyone confirm the capacity, please?

State Inspection went without a hitch! Now I can drive Mr. Zeus!!! On to some bodywork then paint. Also, it was suggested by the Truck Shop that went well above and beyond in helping me out said that because the NHC 250 is a "wet" sleeved engine that a coolant flush in in order as my coolant...

That an understatement!

Will do, I hear there are sightings of your rig everywhere!

New 5 Ton Front Springs, replacing the 1 Ton rear set is finally done. The installation went very smooth, we just needed two 1" spacers to clear the air cans on each side. $400.00 for the donor springs and $150.00 for (16) chassis bolts / nuts, (4) new u-bolts, (4) 1" spacers and two spring...

Thanks all! Can't wait to get this done, inspected and on the road. Appreciate all the input.

Thanks guys, hopefully my spring guy will get to it this weekend!

Well my donor 5-ton front springs arrived today. I am hoping to have the existing suspension removed and replaced over the next few weekends. Those of you folks whom have used this spring set, 2 questions.... 1) Did you use the existing hangers or use outboard hangers? 2) It appears that if...

So 5 ton Springs are an option, some Pro's, some Con's , airbags, but cost prohibited, what about a deuce spring set? After all the Military trucks that I have owned over the last 20 years, I am now beating a dead horse!

I would agree Matt, but added to cost of the original bobbed project, costs exceed $4k!

Just back from one of the largest Spring Shops in New England and I think I am going to jump out my first floor window! My entire suspension has to ripped-out in order to correctly size the suspension for the truck and obtain a NH vehicle inspection sticker. $1800 - $2200 for parts and labor...

Thanks twinturbo90 for the correction, sounds like wheelSpinner might have been referring to the PCB. Thanks all!

I found the Failsafe Monitor Module in the TM, but it doesn't describe it's location. Is it under the dash or hood? Hopefully it's just a bad ground or connection.

Apologize doghead, thanks!

A request was made from another member to post my failed inspection (see thread below) results on this thread also for all to review..... http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?123388-State-Inspection-Failed-as-expected-but-two-minor-light-issues DOT and five different truck and auto...

Will post on both threads.. DOT and five different truck and auto shops observed the following: <> Spacer blocks to high and hollow, not solid. If "A" block was to be used for a spacer it should have been solid and a bolt from the spring set attached through it. <> Main leaf spring hangers (2...
