Centramatic tire balancers, done and done.

Ouveson Engineering and Machine also has 6 lug and 8 lug disc brakes, along with lots of other cool parts for Rockwells. Get out your check book or credit card, they are not cheap....

great write-up Travis, need to get back up there and take a ride in your truck if you still have it.

you are being a jerk when you start a thread asking people what they think about something when there are several other threads discussing the exact same thing already? What do you hope to gain when its already being discussed? Just a reminder why I dont come around here much, ****....

cant really say anything that hasnt been said already... bad ass build man. I see your gallery has pics a "truck number two" build. Are you doing a build up for a customer or to sell or?? Cheers

Steve, good to see you on this board. Yes there are a few hundred thousand morons on pirate, but there is some good tech over there too. How is your truck coming along? Did not know you were coming to the GA Rally with cool parts or I would have come :D Brembo makes a 405mm rotor (16") if that...

sorry if missed that before, I thought you were looking to build something like a Tatra 815 or a MAN KAT. If you plan to use it for off road touring like the video above, that changes a few things. This is what I would do if I were going to build something like that, so take it for what it's...

Free Rockwell Wheel Brake Recipe for Rims Smaller Than 20" From Patooyee's Parts - Pirate4x4.Com

Are you talking about adding a second steering axle behind the deuce cab and leaving everything else as is? If so, I think that will look strange. Most 8x8s are cabover (HEMTT, MAN KAT, TATRA, etc) for several reasons. If you are going to start with two straight box/channel frame rails, I...

just buy a new one :D 2011 TATRA T815 8x8 - YouTube

posting pics that are hosted elsewhere (like photobucket, imageshack, etc) should be as simple as copying the link into the thread and putting after it, so your links will look like this: that works on almost every forum unless the mods or something in the page scripts does not allow you to...

EF 8406 has SAE#2 belll and bolts behind a Cumins CTA/8.3. Has plenty of capacity and good gearing too.

Rob, we have emailed in the past and I have read both of your build diaries (years ago) from start to finish.. welcome to the board..

works fine for me: http://yourfirstdue.com/manager/data/1275752401/apparatus/dscn1940.jpg http://yourfirstdue.com/manager/data/1275752401/apparatus/dscn1963.jpg

HP versus speed when calculating for things like coefficient of drag and friction, etc., is exponential, not linear.. Bugatti added 200hp to the new Veyron to gain something like 10 mph in top speed (260 mph +) Air is like syrup at those speeds.. Now at 60-70 mph that should not be as much of...

You guys must not do a lot of off roading or if you do you are just out driving around in the dirt or mud.. When you get stuck on a trail, you absolutely dont want to be winched backwards because you are trying to get somewhere (down a trail, over an obstacle, etc) If you winch backwards and...

too bad you arent a bit closer... I would have taken that extra rear axle off your hands for you and taken a ride in the Caterham :D

sawzall blade with teeth ground off so its more like a knife blade heat a good chisel with a oxy or map gas torch and use it to sipe or groove dremel or die grinder with thin cut off wheels some other ideas here: www.pirate4x4.com/forum/showthread.php?t=849847...

If you have a clean OBS truck either keep it and get whatever engine you want for the deuce or sell the truck and do the same... Not hard to find engines and trannies already taken out or find a wrecked truck, etc... Clean OBS trucks are not exactly easy to find. I would say the 7.3 is my...

A Geländewagen, which means cross country vehicle, is NOTHING like a JEEP... other than maybe having solid axles front and rear and being 4 wheel drive.... additionally, typing "gwagen" even as one word into google would have told you exactly what it was... :D A recent post noted there were...
