Here are a couple pictures of the rim so far.

PM sent on the stock tubes. I didn't flip the centers. But the rims are about 12.5" wide. I wanted a very WIDE stance to the rim and tire rather then a bit too narrow. And this 'should' help keep them fairly lined up without having different rims for the front.

I made mine like Sermis did his. But I made mine wider.

Not yet, should be taking some pictures today.

Called the local tire shops, and the cost for tubes is crazy! That, and they have a hard time finding a tube bigger then the 14r20. They have plenty bigger, but they are for bigger rims. I just made some wider rims, and I need to get some tubes, and flaps, to get the tires properly mounted...

One more reason they say to park it with the hand brake on, and the transmission in neutral, and the wheels chocked. Think they learned the hard way a few times?

Pushing it in just removes one more step when you go to start it. One less thing to forget. Leaving it OUT is also correct because you are supposed to leave it out when you start it. This is to check for hydro lock.

Correct procedure is to leave it out. No accidental starting it that way.

Actually, some 14B hubs WILL fit right on there. Well, I put some SRW 14B hubs on my 70HD axle to widen the WMS.

I just remember looking up the kit for our trucks, and it showed 25 lbs. I know that this number is almost always based on the the closed spring pressure on the exhaust valves. This was one of the reasons I wasn't in TOO big of a hurry to run an exhaust brake. Any brake would be good, but at...

I thought we would be limited to #25 of back pressure by our exhaust springs?

Hmm, what's it worth? Alaska = priceless Southern florida = just bragging rights Sure would like the fast heat though.

Wow, if a medium weighs about 165 lbs, I doubt a heavy could be that light...

Ok, so I am a bit slow to READ a bit better this morning... Ok, so I looked up the TB stated. Yeah, just says mounted in the frame. http://www.tpub.com/content/shopequipment/TB-9-3470-209-30/TB-9-3470-209-300020im.jpg And on page 16 it only says. (17) Vehicle boarding ladder (2540-00-641-0187)...

Ah, sorry, I missed that part. Here is your post. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?t=12550&highlight=ladder+storage&page=5 Page 4 shows one from the FMTV, but the rest are self made ones that look pretty good!

Here is the post not all that long ago about them. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?t=26993&highlight=loading+ladder

How bad is the oil? And how much stuff is in it? If the oil is fine, and there is very little gunk in it, then a flush would be fine. If there is either bad oil, or lots of junk, a flush runs the risk of dislodging something else and blocking something very important inside one of the circuits...

There are a number of things you can take OUT of it and get it weighed. Rear seat, pass seat, spare tire, etc.
