Cool good to see more of the MV's in general area I would like to attend one of the get togethers someday soon. update on truck is I got bed cut down and the header slid into new spot and tacked into place for today, hope tomorrow to get welding finished and get bed in place.

Ok so today I took rear back out of truck, put correct rear in, switched air cans from one rear to other, rotated cans to clear springs, and plumbed the air lines except a few I need to get longer lines for so i basically got back to the place I was yesterday after about 9 hrs of work today. 1...

worked on finishing bob job today on truck and started out fine I got the cans rotated, axle centered,springs in place and bolted tight,and then noticed I had put the wrong rear back into truckaua:doh::soapbox: (I put the one without the abs sensors in it back in) so using skid loader I go to...

also here is a comparison between the 11r20's and the 425's so you can see the 425 are not small....just look it on the 923. both of these tires are off rims with no air or weight obviously..

Worked today so didn't get much done for truck, got 6 of the old g177's broke down off rims and got my temp wheels mounted up for back (2 more matching 425/65/22.5's like on front but on standard rig 22.5x8.25 wheels) till I can get some combats or fmtv's. I rolled a xzl up to truck for quick...

well just got back with my 16.00r20 XZL's (no pics since it was dark by time I got back) now the hunt for fmtv rims continues or switch to completely different wheels.

UPDATE got frame cut down and rear crossmember in final spot, the bed looks like it will be 9'6" on nose like originally planned now if I can just get those air cans rotated like everyone else I will be good, right now axle is sitting on wood black to keep springs from hitting.

Thanks john. I think the hardest part was that massive center crossmember with its 9 million rivets (ok maybe few less) that wouldn't punch out even after cutting off the heads and grinding smooth. Any idea what the tandem setup and rear axle would weigh? our skid steer is rated to pick up...

well its at the no turning back stage! truck is officially 2 axles now. I got the tandem setup out today and moved my rear crossmember up to its new location, didnt get new springs on yet so truck is blocked up for now but next day off I plan to mount the springs and set it down on own weight...

ok well I got my 2 425/65/22.5s mounted up (had to buy a 1" impact to get lug nuts off after twisting the head off a 3/4" breaker bar) I also have my 6" CAT stacks on truck with stack box to help with drone, still need to paint them black and finish up a set of supports to help keep them from...

well I did find 2 22.5x12.25 stud pilot wheels to go on truck, still hunting for 2-3 more but currently sitting at home with one **** of a cold so wont be updating much for awhile. i had just got my bobber springs too ! I currently have the rear crossmember unbolted, all wiring labeled and...

ok picture time, first one is sitting at bikemans I had popped hood to fill power steering next ones are sitting in my parents driveway. I suddenly dont think my moms dodge ram with 4.5" lift and 35's is all that big anymore lol.

well I got truck to my parents! I got home 15 mins after midnight drove 14 hrs total down and back in rain and towards end sleet. Truck ran 100%

no dont know anyone I can get a dealer tag from i thought about it lol. the truck is 210 mi from me if it gets 10 mpg (what i have seen most people state) that would be 21 gallons of fuel 21x$4.00=$84 in fuel for truck and my car gets 35mpg so it wont use much to go down and back. No I...

yeah I keep thinking about towing it but I might just drive it, bikeman has been great and went over truck only problem is a shimmy (possibly from tires being low for awhile) at 45 but is off and on. So far I think he has driven truck over 1 hr and had no problems so I think I can get it home...

ha ha I looked at few in sparta but getting them home seemed like a big task, they were about only place with steady stream of A2 trucks though. My m923 is sitting @ bikemans right now waiting to get a tow, I keep thinking about driving it but I cant afford a ticket or break down (tow bill will...

ty scarecrow I like the looks of the a1 trucks for sure but never really loved the 14.00 tires that come on them and the a2's. I like the shorter fatter look of the 395s and ofcourse the hugeness of the 52's, when i had my 425's on my chevy i joked with everyone they were just a big Goodyear AT...

Thanks guys BKubu is your 395 a goodyear or michelin ? I'm selling some 395 michelins and plan to put my MVT's on truck, I would love to check out your trucks as I have said on here I wanted a A2 truck for the 8.3 but thought I should get what I can afford not sit around wishing I had the money...

I should point out I'm kinda a tire fanatic, my wife tells me I have a fetish for them lol. I already have 2 sets of 395's to try out on truck as well as 425/65/22.5 cement truck goodyears that I'm shopping for rims for in junk yards and ebay(trying to find the old stud piloted front wheels).I...

I just wanted to update I officially have a paid for m923, now if I can get it home before my 10 days are up. I will be taking lots o pics of truck and keeping as good of records as I can of the bob job to follow. For now here is a gl pic of my truck.
