Hard top may be a bit quieter. But really not a substantial difference. If that's your selection criterion it's pretty much a wash. I like a soft top and the ability to (reasonably easily) remove it and run topless. In your climate, I'd choose a hardtop. JMHO

Comparison is "reliable when fairly new" compared to "reliable when fairly new". I'd like to see a comparison of "reliability at 30+ years old" to "reliability at 30+ years old". I speculate that the older cruder platforms start off less reliable, but retain a higher level of reliability...

But better with hemtt rims. 16.00s are really going to kill the bottom end on that heavy beast. I drove one on 14.00s from Nellis AFB to Phoenix and it was bad enough...

Make some out of a stall mat?

DT466 Cummins 8.3 Some of the Cat offerings. The 5.9 Cummins may be the best choice though.

My M925 with 16.00s and hemtt rims.

It does not.

I like that mod because it gives you high and low 6x4 and high and low 6x6. While it removes some of the bind on the t-case in low range by not forcing low to always be in 6wd , it doesn't resolve it completely and low range reverse still runs a risk of breaking the t case.

They're air shift. The ratios aren't the same. It really isn't worth mating up the Tcase out of the M939series with the transmission out of the M809series as you end up with a gear or two that aren't useful. I'm thinking the M39 series is the same as the M809series except for the engine...

The 939series 5ton trucks have a 10:1 reverse gear. In low range, this is enough torque to break the transfer cases. Thus you can't back up in low range reverse in those trucks. Not an issue in the older trucks.

Another 818 with 53" tires. The truck tractor wheelbase makes a big difference.

Wet stack isn't rpm dependent. It is load dependent. It can and will happen without a load even at high rpms. Most common in underloaded generators, where rpm is constant.

Wet stack is probably an issue but probably not what caused this. My guess says clogged fuel filters and life in your fuel system...

Speaking of diesel engines in general, those with an aux heating mechanism as a cold weather start aid can be cycled multiple times to facilitate easier starting. When it's below 0*F, I cycle the plenum heater in my pickup twice before attempting starting, as a matter of course. On the...

11.00R20 will fit on the same wheels, but they sometimes rub the trunion cap bolts. If I'm swapping tires on a deuce, I'm going to 395s on MRAP rims with adapter plates(pictured).

Presuming your deuce is still on 9.00s and that your trailer is an M105A2 , the answer is yes.

It's been done (or something similar) with a 6 figure pricetag.

I suspect it may be just harmonics/resonance. I've got a truck that'll almost throw you out of the seat at 28mph, but is smooth until 25mph, and smooths out again at 32mph and remains smooth up to cruising speed of 60ish. Also on 16.00s. (By "smooth", I mean as smooth as one can expect from...
