Dang. Looks like your jack has been commandeered and you may not get it back for awhile. I've got one 5-ton single piece HubHelper waiting to get formed up that's not spoken for...

They only needed it to help adjust the hammer positioning while it was hanging in the slings off the forklift (the red cable you see). The hammer is in its place already so its free. Tomorrow we will put the hub back with two people carrying it in a sling between them, while the third one positions the thing.
For the other five tires, that will happen much later this spring, when the addition to the workshop is ready and the walking cat installed there. But thanks for the offer. If I had more $$ and lived in the USA, I probably would go for it. Then again, with a large blacksmith workshop available, one things are in their place, I can make something myself based on your brilliant idea.

I checked my basement and I have the CUCV prototype, a 2.5-ton model and my prototype for modern hub piloted Conmet hubs.
Was really wanting one for my M931A2 hubs with my need to go through all them this summer and looking for something to make it easier. Would the hub piloted prototype still work for the M931A2 hubs?
Interested in the deuce version, but the 5 ton hubs are the real motivator for purchase. Shipping would be to 75028 if you have a price.

That looks like it might balance out pretty well? The gear reduction hubs must weigh quite a bit.This was my Hub Helper on the 10 Ton truck's back in the day....

I think the hub-piloted version has the same 11.25" bolt circle, but I don't plan on selling the prototypes because I still have tests and demos to run with them. I can work up another batch as soon as I'm done with some other projects im on right now.
I'll send you a PM
That's fine, I'm not in a hurry. When you get ready to create a batch for the M939/M931A2, let me know. Thanks for digging up what you had on hand.
