So you showed up in the city with a 100’ specialty combo to take the test? That’s saying you have something to prove or doing audits. Thats like showing up to a CCW course with a 500SW, your going to get a little extra “attention” from the instructor.

Safety chains likely? Not sure what post your quoting/questioning?

Is this sketchup your current box with the front chopped off, sitting on a M927 wheelbase? That never occurred to me, but might save a bunch of money vs starting from scratch.

Looks like about 52”max from cab to tire, hope the resolution on this pic is good enough to answer your other question, 27.75” outside to outside, 19.5” on center, 11” inside to inside.

If you have a line on a good deal xlwb truck, and could work with it’s stock wheel base would be ideal. No dicking with truck other than pushing your track width out for looks, but doubt would be necessary for stability. Looks like about 22 rivets in the 5ton boggie, but easily removed with a...

Do you have any pictures or links to the specs of your bags? Are they convoluted or rolling, and do they have bumpers? How much space do you have to wok with between top of your collapsed bag while sitting on the bottom mount and the bottom of the frame? If you have plenty of freedom for you...

Hey Jim, can you give us a quick refresh on some of the details and battles of your last build? I think I remember you battling weight, stability and getting wider track width to match the 8’ sea can on your m35? I just remember thinking a 5 ton would have been soooo much better of a platform to...

That sucks.

I think you’ll be giddy as a school girl driving the m927. Get and A2 if you can, they’re better[emoji12]. You wont have half the problems you experienced building you deuce.

Used triangle files for years until I found this type will be the best$10-20 you ever spent for your situation.

I think you could, just basically add half holes to the inside of your 5 ton tool. You might have to add a little meat around the outside of the 3 and 9 o’clock holes due to they would be one big slot, but not likely, beings you could probably cut the tool in half and use the top or bottom...

Around here, if the DOT found something like that they would hang back, camp out on it, waiting for the violator to return and get it back on the road, so they could make some money, instead of being stuck with a huge tow bill and only junk to auction off.

Yeh, I would plan on lifting it, or at least having a wrecker on hand to help with all that tongue weight while winching. It would be nice if there was a member nearby to assist, at least if nothing else a place to store and load.

Wes has general operating temps of just about everything in the parts spread sheet sticky.

Ummm, not to beat your battery thing to death, but... you didn’t fill you battery with straight acid, did you?

Make sure your helper wasn’t pussy footing the pedal, these trucks brakes are proportioned very heavy to the rear.

I don’t think it’s homeless, squatting and laughing at the eviction process maybe...

Or use 1/2 of what all that packing cost towards a different shipper...

Whoa big fella... put the welder away, it’s not that knarfed... yet. I like the stud idea. Wonder if ARP makes any for our boosted winches?
