    Damanged planetary hub on MTVR

    I pulled off the hub to replace a bad seal and found this. The best I can tell is the the a planetary gear got hot and seized which spun its axle.

    Video of mounting and unmounting a 16.00 on a 2 piece wheel.

    I made a video showing a couple tricks to mounting a Michelin ZXL on a wheel with a bead lock. The hi lift jack and ratchet strap to the rafters is the best method I've found. Sorry for the poor quality video. I'm not the best with a camera https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZWAb41hbNHI Here is a...

    Allison Automatic on 5 ton M923A2

    If you have a 1/2" now, adjust it until its tight at WOT and go from there. Its trial and error until you get it to shift where you like it.

    2019 SoCal Fall Rally

    Its not looking good for Devin and I. His transfer case is whining, I sold my 5 ton and haven't picked up my 7 ton yet. Maybe we'll come up in a pickup truck and drink all your beer

    55 in a m1070

    24V jump box

    Yermo GP Location

    Almost all their stuff is at 34550 Outer Hwy 15 N, Yermo, CA 92398 which is a old water utility company. When you call for pickup they will give you the address. A few things are kept at the USMC base but not many

    What have you done to your MTVR today?

    It cost me $850 when my 5 ton broke down towing a m105. Landoll winched the truck and towed it 65 miles. Definitely not cheap Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk
