Im in Mn. on the outskirts of a small town called waseca about 70 miles south of the twin cities.
Give em up? c mon i gota keep some thing. Nah i just havent put the m on becacus i dont have it painted yet and it looks kinda old. but i gues i can make an acception just for you ;-)
yup custom springs as well as custom boggie arms, its not as bad as you might think. 5 ton parts are WAY huge and the only way that would work would be if you had the long spread 5 ton suspension and use the whole thing. thats a lot of added weight for nothing. if some one is interested in any...
they are home made 20X10.75 i made them a hair wider so that they would flaten out the tire and let me run a little more air so that it want quite so wishey washey on the turns. No fender problems after the 3 inch body lift, if you have fender problems just grab a set of gasser fenders and do...
lol i do know my limits...i try to break when i think i might maybe not
Actualy ive used it fairly hard and havent broke anything, i had the 543 5 ton hooked up with my tow bar and it spun a 16.00 on cement. Low range steady presure

nope no lockers....im scared of breaking axles in the front for sure with the big tires and cummins turned up to around 275 if i had a locker. im putting a steer axle i the center so that only leaves the rear solid enough for a locker, or at least thats my thinking, any ideas?
What i realy...
just a few chuncks of 3x3x1/4 square tube i found laying around. drilled some holes and that was it, kinda thinkin about building a sub-frame for the cab and front clip to make an air ride gizmo incorparated with the tilt front end.
well the deal with the hitch was that we had the truck registered for a car show along with pop's 970 HP big block lawnmower and our t bucket. like the night before the show he says, why dont we just pull a trailer with the army truck. Well a few of my buddies and a case of beer later we had a...
