I am going to build a press of some sort tomorrow to mount my 12.5 20 xl/s. Can anyone tell me what they used or have a picture of a press. I spent a long time today with backhoe with no luck. I have i beam and may build it like a verticle log splitter on steroids. pleas help. Local tire...
Well, the milemarker winch on my dodge Ram is a 2 speed (civilian) 12,000 lb. And I have the milemarker from the hummer which has a much larger hyd. motor so it has to be even better. I Bolted it to the bumper today and before the picture police get me (Sorry my batteries died on the dig...
Thats what I thought untill I bobbed my deuce. I can not see a docter using a 3 doller pair of scissors charging $120,000 for a simple brain sergury either. I drove 1000 miles to get my tires and a spring kit. And put a couple hundred hours on my back drilling and welding in temps as...
Going to find one tomorrow. I will probably use a power steering pump from a big truck. And may add power steering at the same time. I have read that a hummer winch is very strong using the stock steering pump so a big unit should do. I also have a 24 volt electric hummer winch that is huge...
I searched and cannot find if anyone installed an hhmv milemarker hyd. winch on a deuce. I will be starting the install tomorrow so any tips would help.
Lifted the bed with backhoe to check clearence of pintol. Used 3/8 8 grade bolts with special frame nuts for hangers. My dad and I build hoists for dumps. Have some hoists but not sure which style to use yet. The avitar is a 87 WE-4 i sold to pay for land and green toys. Only put it there...
Dump mechanism not yet installed. May use a hoist off of one of my M105 DT 's
Drive shaft needed 6 inch length added. Rear spring shackle re-uses the front bottom frame rivet hole and I have pictured the location of the front shackle.
Finnished my bobbed project yesterday. I do have one issue to deal with yet. I moved the crossmember that holds the pintol hitch forward 10 inches so the tailgate can swing open 90 plus degrees. However I used the M105 DT (dump trailer) bed instead of the standard M105 bed.
When i dump...
I priced axles at kublos in PA for a friend.... $800 for a srearing and a little less for a rear axle. Thats where buying that one for $1500 makes sense. Get your axles and have alot left for shebay.
Can anyone save me the time mounting the axle and spring shackles on my bobb project. I can probably figure it out but If I had a couple shots of shackle location and cab to axle measures.
I am using m35 front springs and shackles and a m105 bed. I figure the center of wheelwell is 60...
is he saying he wants to spend $5000 with single axle conversion done? I saw one at kublos yesterday I think $13000 done. m35 bed cut down and 9.00 20 duels on singl rear axle. Looked sweet. one on shebay less than 6k right now but will bring more
Ok, I did find out you are right. Even if the bar does not fail but is being used when an accident occurs, I can be held responsible. Mainly because the total weight might exceed 26,000 lbs (hope you have a CDL) Even if I sell it as a USED bar I am responsible and can be sued. So untill...
