    camper idea please comment

    They use springs in the tie-downs. My camper is very rigid, so any bed flex, the springs allow the bed to flex under the camper box.

    Tire Age in Hmmwvs

    Sad thing is now that everyone is more aware of “tire age”, tires aren’t what they used to be, especially with the junk Chinese rubber flooding the market...

    What to clean after mudding

    Two feet of mud under two feet of water, your most likely going to get stuck, also think your going to be getting uncomfortably close to your intake.

    Super Swamper part # rxm-32r, $400-450 new. One of the best all around tires I’ve ever owned.

    M939 CTIS Reprogram, Anybody Done It?

    I put the newer ECU from my parts truck on todayit runs the updated 70PSI on Hwy, all other pressures stayed the same. It also has the blackout function as well, where the lights only come on when the normal lights are switched on. If I can find a good deal on a 90psi transducer, I may try...

Just kidding, don’t need anyone else thinking I hate trees. I like the crane on the service truck idea, that would...

    How many lockers to use for a 6WD M1088?

    Coachgeo, you don’t have to do all that, if you have an intermediate axle laying around. If it has a typical power divider, turn the input and the output will turn backwards while unlocked. If FMTV Truck Sales is correct, the input will not turn with locked brakes, but the output will spin free

    How many lockers to use for a 6WD M1088?

    Yep, same thing with the age old debate on which axle of a 6x6 to run tire chains on, always more opinions from 4x4 guys. All my tree joking aside, I shouldn’t bust on these guy’s too hard about how power dividers work, I’d bet 75% of professional truck driver don’t understand them.

    How many lockers to use for a 6WD M1088?

    If this is correct, my vote would be for the rear axle as well, but if you can afford it buy more! As for the trees, kind of like natural selection, if they can’t take it, it wasn’t meant to be...

    Quick and dirty cantilever gantry off the bed and front bumperdepending on the engine weight, could maybe get away with pipe, and a spare tire, jib trolley instead of I-beam.

    How many lockers to use for a 6WD M1088?

    How many lockersto use for a 6WD M1088? Ok, tie your tuck to your wimpy tree, jack up one wheel at a time, if it is a typical power divider, each wheel will easily spin while in the air, with no real force applied to your wuss tree;)
