    Removing the spacer between the bed and frame.

    Going to have to chop the shelter too.

    m1008 fuel tank help

    I did one as a transfer tank. Had a dash switch to transfer fuel on the move and a second pump to transfer fuel from the truck to another vehicle.

    m1008 fuel tank help

    As an owner of an ambulance and a contact truck, I can tell you that this info is spot on. Have fuel hose on hand, you will need it.

    A not-so-funny story (hz)

    The genset Jon had was attractively priced and a perfect fix for the feller suffering the extra hertz. Another deal like that will be hard to find. Another applicable quote. "It's better to be thought an idiot than to speak and remove all doubt".

    which are the most used heavy duty wrench sockets on older 5-tons

    They really work, that's for sure.

    Found the M1009 I want! NO TITLE. Shipping to AR. Not sure how to begin.

    Perhaps if you list the location you are buying it from, a member in the area could act as a quasi agent for you. No title gives me a little concern but I know that here in GA, titles are not required for vehicles 1985 and older. Another angle of reasearch, try to determine if it is a violation...

    Not a hard man to track, leaves a trail of burning bridges wherever he goes.

    The "Not so Funny Story" turned out to be extremely funny.

    S-250 shelter recovery - how best to haul

    They make great storage containers for ammo cans and wonderful shelters for the kids waiting for the bus at the end of the lane. I had an S318 that filled all those rolls and so many more. Try to keep it somewhat modular.

    What are you guys paying?

    With aftermarket gauges carved into the dash, I would say you have wiring mods. Could be okay, could be bad. That could be part of the charging issue if the installer didn't know that the Gen2 light was required. Steering is likely caused by uncorrected geometry when installing the lift kit...

    1028 with M35 cargo bed?

    Its a great idea. I have an 87 V30 with 159.5" wb as well. The deuce bed weighs nearly a ton so it might limit your GVWR. They look tough as nails though.

    Odd gauges

    Usually found on tractors more than other trucks.

    Thanks Juan, I will investigate.

    Deuce gearing

    Driving at 55 will show you a lot of new scenery. If you must go faster, Waterloo Specialties makes a higher OD gear for the trans. Axle gearing would be exponentially costly.

    How To Get Your Trailered MEP-803A Home

    Good writeup. Hopefully it helps the next guy. BTW, sounds like a couple of you guys need new surge shocks on your trailer. When functioning correctly, the surge brakes work pretty smoothly.

    Disaster generators

    Power management is a key. Whole house gensets are nice when the power fails but when attached to partial or total devastation, When fuel is at a premium and hard to find, gas might be a fair option. If Incould only have one genset, it would be the Honda inverter. Just enough power to...

    Thus it is written. We will sent an enforcement detachment.

    Disaster generators

    That is a super nice genset but at $5500 for a 7 kw and $8000 for an 11 kw, it might be a little costly for the commoner, especially after a major storm where everything,including money is at high demand.
