Nope. Existing wheel studs are fine.

Most likely leaking internally into the air pack.

The dash guage is where the fuel gauge is looking, which may or may not be where the fuel is being drawn from. There's a switch on the dash that moves the fuel gauge back and forth. As you know, the lever on the floor is what controls where the fuel is being drawn from.

Look at lindsey97's avatar pic for articulation of the stock rear suspension. The mod you suggest would remove much of this capability.... https://www.steelsoldiers.com/member.php?60120-lindsey97 Edit to add screenshot

Pull the tires in how? Changing axles? Chopping up axles? Dualled 14.00s is bridge truck wheels or equivalent. You're not just a little bit over the 102" legal max. At that point you're way over. Someone measured, and going from memory it was something like 115".

Looks like the m998 with a GVWR of 7700lbs is explicitly permitted to be street titled and registered whether or not the paperwork was stamped "off road". Looks like wheeled MVs with a GVWR over 10k are permitted to be street titled and registered as long as they were not stamped "off road"...

This directly conflicts with my understanding of 208v 3phase. The way I understand it is you have three legs A B and C, a neutral N and then a safety ground G. Any of the ABC legs to N is 120v and any one of the ABC to any other ABC is 208v. With N being a true neutral. I've been using two...

Agreed. Steel and aluminum don't do well in direct contact. Everything I was bolting on was bolting to the fiberglass hood. Well worth a mention that steel and aluminum should be insulated from each other. Edit to add - now that i think about it I have stainless steel nuts in contact with the...

I removed and painted the light buckets, replaced a bunch of hardware with stainless, scritched and repainted access doors, grilleguard, hood hold downs, and replaced the rear hood seal and related hardware. A lot more work than I thought it was going to be. Before, and then several after...

I have 16.00s on two of my trucks. I like them. But one of the trucks is an M925 with an unmodified NH250 that serves mostly as a toy and not loaded heavy. Even in this usage the loss of low end acceleration was pronounced. The other one is an M818 that has had a turbo added to the NH250...

Too much loss on low end to consider for a dump truck. I wouldn't.

Looks suspiciously like a 4man in the pics:)

They exist as military issue. Price on the surplus market is $1000-$3000 depending on who and where.

Which transmission?

Rusty and nonrunner? From zero up to scrap depending on how much trouble it is to scrap it.

Preference for 6.5 GEP variant. Otherwise no preference between 6.2 and 6.5. In general, choose any truck based on overall condition before looking at trivial differences like NA 6.2 to NA 6.5.

Pics of the towbars from a couple of days ago - The bar with feet is Howard's,so not for sale

That's "over"
