This will be my ride for the weekend and my buddy will be along in the Camo 931

I wiped out 3 flaps in a week recently. the 4' rigid pipe wrench has been getting a workout. I just got these which will flex and also push the flaps back another 2" from the tires.

I missed it somewhere but why was he required to move the exhaust?

Here page 11. I had posted a lot of pics of all the 5ton differences airlockers and regular 5tons. http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/general-4x4-discussion/784718-5-ton-rockwell-thread-11.html

The only thing available as of now are the axles from an m1500 firetruck. no 5ton truck ever had airlockers from the factory. The m1500 axles can be swapped over but you have to use the housings for the airlocker axles. My friend is working on a drop in unit to fit the regular 5ton axles.

ask. I can tell ya just about anything you need to know.

yeah I saw that once I clicked the link.

Has anyone ever modified the exhaust on their 939 series truck so it comes out of the fender like a 2.5ton or a 800 series truck? pics?

I have a friend in Texas that has done that with a few 5tons. they will do it but he has killed a few in the process. he said his processor weights in around 110k. He was recently looking at buying a HET to replace his 5tons he uses.

And do they charge per vehicle or per person for the park? what are the rates? And I assume we can bring sxs's for back up rides?

As of now I think we have 2 M931A2's, a M932A2, and a M923A1 coming and possibly a Humvee

yes rears have 2 actuators. And fronts have one. not sure how much difference there would be on actual braking power I'm there is a difference just not sure how much. and the comment of leaving both rears won't work because on tandems the springs are outboard the frame and the steer axle...

I have some spare brake parts and stuff here if I get time I'll see if the maxi cans can be used on the front axle. steering actuation can be done several ways be it mechanical controls or electronic.

For highway use it would be easy to make a pin to lock it out or even use an air cylinder to engage and disengage the lock out pin.

I've dealt with a fair amount of rear steer setups in monster trucks and offroad trucks. the steering part is easy I can easily help ya with that. But due to clearance when the knuckle turns and the canisters hitting stuff that's gonna be the tricky part. now it may be possible to use on of the...

Aside from the speeding sins some of us make ;) my M931A2 will bury the speedo and drives great over 60mph and the occasional bridge expansion joint can give the back nice bounce. lol

I'm talking about when you tear it apart. I've never needed a socket to remove the inner nut and I've torn down quite a few of these axles.

normally the inner nut is finger tight. the outer though should be tight.
