Richard, are these slave cables or just connectors? :mrgreen:

The M814 "Long Easy" had to travel to Ferro's compound for "Haspin" customizing and pimping out. Ferro says he will wash and wax it so the bugs won't stick to the front. :mrgreen:

I would love to find a heater core for a 5 ton. Also looking for more convoy light parts, and the green dash lights for the A3( want to change out my red ones)

Well, My trip to Haspin starts tomorrow. I am moving the M814 "Long Easy" from it's spot in my backyard to Ferro's place for loading. The next leg will be from Ferro's place to Asheville on Tuesday, and hook up with Neil H for the run though Tennessee and Kentucky to Haspin.

I am yanking ferro's chain, which I try to do every time I get a chance. And yes, Ferro does have enough room for me to swing the 814. At least he better, as the 814 is coming to his house to spend the weekend before we jump off for Haspin.

You ain't got enough room for me to turn my 814 around, with out having to go around the block.:jumpin:

Good luck. I purchased two new windshields for my 814. After installing the windshield, I found that the rubber wouldn't let the frames close so that I could latch the windows. I had to change the rubber so I could get the window closed. Rode in the rain the other day, and no leaks( at...

Better a stand down and training, then following your leader into the ground like the Thunderbirds.

I own a Marine Corp Fairmont A4-E. It was among the last group of motorcars built in the US, all for the military.

Take plenty of money for the toll booths- Extra axles will kill you. My 814 towing a pickup truck was almost 75.00 dollars in tolls southbound from fort dix.

The 814 rides so smooth, that I just place the drink on top of the transfer case hump, just behind the HI/LO selector. Haven't lost one yet!!!

Amazing what CGI can do...........:jumpin:

SC is good. No questions asked when I took the SF-97 in to DMV. You can register the MV in any weight class you want, just as long as you don't cross that weight on the scales. Plus the fact that a IFTA sticker is unneeded as long as it is a personal vehicle. :mrgreen:

The problem is that not all states have the same rules. In SC, I don't have to display a plate, or have IFTA stickers. But does the MC enforcement guy/gal in TN know that? I would be really pissed if I got a ticket in TN, for following SC rules.

Welcome to the 5 ton family.

What about changing the rim size on the 5 tons? 20" tires are hard to come by, as only the military used that size. I am thinking about going to a standard truck rim, 22.5". It doesn't do anything extra, except that you can find a tire just about anywheres on planet earth. The 22.5 tires are...

I like the Firestone 831's. They seem to be a nice tire. Does anyone have them on a 5 ton?

Good luck. Easier to go down to NAPA and get FELPRO #2499. 12" X 28" flat exhaust gasket. Just cut the gasket out. That is what I did for my 5 ton. :mrgreen:

It's about 3000 strokes of the primer pump.

Who makes a good model of the 5 ton(800 series) truck. It would be nice to have a model of the Long Easy sitting on my desk at home. :mrgreen:
