A futile gesture. 10 calls will get you 10 mutually exclusive answers, none of which will bear any resemblance to what actually happens when you show up to register....

Yeah. No intervention required. Just connect the air to the trailer.

I recommend that you don't do anything with zeros. If DMV wants to, then let them do it. I have had a bad experience where DMV added zeros and insurance did not. This resulted in a mismatch between DMV and insurance and DMV revoked my plates. The first I found out about it was when they...

Wheel bearings. Make sure engine isn't hydrolocked.

I have no experience specific to FL. I do have experience in a dozen other states. I find that across the board, it is best not to volunteer information when dealing with DMV. Hand them your documents, answer any questions. The scenario least likely to cause "no" is that you hand them a...

Judging from what the last sort-of-similar truck brought..... Far more than I'd consider. By like a factor of 5.

DMV anticipates a 17digit VIN. These typically have a 6digit serial number. Sometimes that gives the DMV workers fits.

The front wheel is dish out on your pics. That accounts for the extreme offset.

No rubbing, lock to lock. No hub flip - hub flip is a deuce thing. The front is wider than the rear. Not sure by exactly how much. I won't have an opportunity to measure as I'm in TX and my trucks are not. I'll see if I can find better pics that may show it. Same wheels/tires all the...

My choice is hemtt rims all the way around, and 16.00 AT3s. The first picture is an M818 with 16.00 AT2s on the earlier hemtt rims. The other pics are my M925, hemtt rims and AT3s

In FL, any two batteries that'll physically fit in the battery box will be fine. Suggestion- run your Hawkers through one of those pulsing battery repair cycles. You just might resurrect a $500 battery.

There's documented cases of failures of new trucks that were working as intended hauling cargo in Viet Nam, in ~ 20k miles. (We can all speculate on what kind of aggravating circumstances were involved) My own speculation on multifuel engines in general is that quite a bit was compromised in...

That 'spacer' is the top of the strainer. The threads are all normal right hand thread. A strap wrench or two is the solution. The first time I encountered a stuck one, I was worried the strainer was left hand thread. It isn't. A crowbar and a military issue web belt got it to break loose...

There's no need to swap the tcase. Install is a moderate chore. A much easier install is a 24v warn 18k.

The XLs were known as "maypops" for good reason.

Varies widely. There's documented instances of failures in 20k. And plenty of examples of high mileage. Personally, if the engine passes my inspection, 34k would not be an issue.

Consider what happens if you park on a side slope. Potentially the fuel from the higher tank drains into the lower tank and it overflows. I'm sure there are ways around it.

My understanding is CA is a flat "NO!". @Retiredwarhorses may have something to add.

And the short answer is that your wheels are not compatible with M939series or M809series trucks.
