List of the part #'s for the extra long studs and the offset lug nuts. I'm using the stock studs on the rear axles with the offset lug nuts. Up front I'm using the stock lug nuts with the extra long wheel studs, studs on the receipt are 1/4" longer than the 'extra long studs' sold by the...

Moving faster than I am haha good job. Weather is supposed to clear up tomorrow so I should have the passenger side finished Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk

Looks good. Any issues with turning clearance between the bed and the box?

Old thread but, the Startwell manual starter looks like the most viable option. Pump the handle a few times then press the button. Access to the handle would be a concern, maybe mount it so the handle is underneath? Or an air starter.

Got the same message after I ordered mine. Arrived in the mail today

Made some more progress today, despite setbacks. Damaged 3 of the studs when removing them from the middle axle hub on the passenger side, so they will need to be replaced. That hub had a bad seal, oil had washed out most of the grease, and the wheel cylinder had seen better days so took it...

Looks like a fun trip!

Looks like you got pretty lucky with the lack of rust. Have you dealt with the asbestos lined ducts at the front yet?

Last fall when I was looking for a replacement CV joint for that shaft I had zero luck getting my hands on a replacement boot at the local shops. Will try again. The joints that are in it currently work, but the boots on both sides leak. Went to the local heavy truck dealership and picked up...

True. Difference between safety aware, and a safety nazi. Awareness is appreciated (like when yall pointed out the crane support legs). For now the cable is just rolled up around the bumper. Front winch will need cable and the level wind assembly rebuilt because nothing moves in it, even after...

Can't forget the sandbags on the floor and hanging personnel body armor on the doors.

In low range your shifter should be close to the floorboard, but not sitting on it. If it is adjust the linkage, might not be going completely into low range which would cause grinding.

I'm using the MRAP jump seats. These pics are from when they were in my deuce, now the driver seat is in the m816 wrecker. Much more comfortable than stock, easy to install in a soft top truck. With a hard top you need to angle the seat forward to clear the back wall because these are...

There's still more kinks in the cable that's on the drum. Pulled off around 80ft so far. Greased all the joints on the truck saturday as well, about 5 tubes worth of grease between the truck, crane, and 2 winches. Needless to say there was alot of grease required for the truck. Easy to do...

Pics loaded woohoo! First few pics are from before the PTO was removed from the transmission. As yall can see, it was leaking pretty badly. One of the 3 worst leaks on the truck. The other 2 big leaks are from the PTO shaft running to the crane. Can't find new boots for that shaft so nothing I...

Couldn't pass up on that deal either

Being removable makes more sense to me, for future repairs/needs.

On the 7.8L multifuel it would be a good upgrade, maybe as a bottom turbo in a towing compound setup on a 8.3L. Too small for the NHC250.

I've got a good condition air shift tcase, $450 plus shipping
