    Flip a switch to use gas?

    They do. Switch in the dash controls where the fuel gauge looks. Lever next to driver seat controls where fuel comes from. I know of at least two people who thought the dash switch was all that was needed.....

    M929A2 Dump wanting wider tires on Rear

    He has 11.00R20s on the truck in the picture. The budd dual lug nut set up is available for M929A2. In fact, you'll probably find someone who took them off an A0 or A1 truck that would let you have them cheap or free.

    High RPM’s

    It would remove one possible cause of converter unlock.

    M929A2 Dump wanting wider tires on Rear

    No, it is the normal way rear duals are mounted. It fits on a standard wheel stud, then an oversized lug nut goes onto the thimble.

    M929A2 Dump wanting wider tires on Rear

    Wheelstuds are the same... FWIW, I don't think you really want to pursue double 14.00's. The overwidth PITA....

    From inside to outside- Wheelstud, inner wheel, thimble, outer wheel, outer lugnut.

    M929A2 Dump wanting wider tires on Rear

    Bridge truck wheels. And tubes. And know you'd be overwidth.

    Stripped Geared Hub Drain Plug...good extraction methods?

    Least risk is use it as is. 2nd least risk is a left handed drill bit. If you're not a welder, do not attempt welding. The potential for badness outweighs any benefits. Pay someone to do it.

    Bought used M1102 trailer, (was) missing serial or VIN.

    My experience has been that it is also stamped into the tongue directly underneath the riveted plate on the 1102 series of trailers. Time to get the wire brush after the green spot and see if numbers can be recovered there.

    Anyone Know the Length: Negative Battery Cable for Front Battery??

    I just did a similar thing on my pickup truck. I added the military type post connectors and replaced the cables with the 3/0 ungodly heavy cable. The goal is this is the last time I ever have to tamper with it. I play with cables regularly. If I were going to replace battery cables on a...

    Anyone Know the Length: Negative Battery Cable for Front Battery??

    Agreed. The military posts and then a cable with a 3/8" lug. Also, there's no reason not to make your cables out of something bigger and meaner than #2AWG. The only counter argument is that the one the OP picked out is already crimped and doesn't require any special tools.

    2010 Fermont MEP-802A 5kW Generator Set

    My opinion/experience- They put those gensets on a couple different trailers. That's the better one. The MEP802 is more like 6500W if you're comparing to civvy 5kw units. You did fine on pricing, presuming the genset works and isn't showing a ton of hours. I sent you a PM with additional...
