I was hoping after you retired he would hire you for a day, and fly you out to slap it in there for him.

Check your nuts!

I think 450-500 is pretty standard.Its also what the TM for my trailer calls for, single or dueled.

I’m looking for a Deuce spare tire carrier. Two 5’ pieces of of frame rail as close to 8” tall outside dimension, with 2” legs o.d. as possible. Also would like to find an axle for my M200a1 trailer that has the 10 on 11-1/4” bolt circle to match my 5 ton.

Are deuce shackle pins 1”? If so, I’ll see if I have a couple more of these brackets, and get them to you at Findlay, or Haspin. I might have some other useful junk as well. I think you started with a 5 ton jib also? I cant remember, if you lift your crane off is it male or female on the...

Dang! You looked at that spring pack too hard! That Ford spring is the bottom over load, it’s only meant to contact the main pack when they are loaded down. But they wont quite work as intended with your pack, more or less just a 1/2” spacer. I would just ditch the bottom spring on the other...

I use old antifreeze on the drill press and wd-40 in a refillable squirt bottle with the mag drills annular cutters, also for tapping. All ghetto, but have had good results. I use cheap high speed bits and resharpen them as necessary on a side arm grinder with a sanding pad on it, Ive found not...

I finally made a fixture for mounting the crane to the front of the truck. Works good.

Bump for quarterly insults...Found this fairly close to you for a good price. Mount that puppy behind the cab, pull your hood, motor, slap the new one in, go crane the old junk in the lake, and boom your done!

Few more pictures I forgot about. Hopefully winters done for most of you!

Totally agree with Floridianson. If you insist on that trailer for both trucks, electric over hydraulic is the only way I can think of. Problem is thats too heavy to bumper pull on the pickup, so your looking at 5th wheel trailers...

Yes, that was all me... Sorry for the derail G, but couldn’t help my self. Had too much fun enjoying these two... after all they endured in the Duece on their long trek across the country. Hope to cross paths again some day, and carry on in the Haspin threads!

I’ll be looking for brake fluid[emoji106]

If you guys don’t work something out I have a few that I can bring along. Also, I’m looking for a parking brake handle, air brake chamber, master cylinder, and mounting bracket for M200a1 trailer, I think M105 parts are the same, or can be made to work.

Any chance you have a hydo winch for a 939 if so I’m interested.

Fortunately it was a professional driver on a closed course. Don’t attempt any of these stunts at home... Michigan is the Texas of trucking.

Drug the 5 ton about 1/2 mile at 48k without running out of air, with me braking and steering, you can crank the engine with the starter motor of an A2 and get the power steering to work quite well for the big turns.

Hello Sue! Thanks for the info, I forgot to check your truck over closely at Haspin last year. It’s almost that time again, hope you and E make the “short”[emoji2957] drive again this year.

Recheck your torque, ASAP, and if you get a chance, zip one of your nuts off and snap a picture for us.

Torqued the plate to 500 foot pounds with no change except for maybe a slight truing of the chamfer angle and slight deformation in the nut. Happy feeling gone.... I emailed Western Canadian Rockwell, received excuses, and offer for return for refund. At this point due to impatience, I’m...
