These 395s are about 46" tall. The 14.00s are about 49"
Its only 3", but the 14.00 seem much taller than the 395. The 14.00s will fit in the front, but not in the back of a 6 wheel truck (unless highly modded)
I know there has been several threads on whether 395/85-r20s will fit the axle spacing or not, and if the tire can be installed on a stock wheel. On this set, I used the stock 9.00 tubes. Several sets we have done since, I have installed new 11.00 or 13.00 tubes.
Answer is YES on both...
Thanks, guys-
Now I have it home and I am thinking about what to do with it. Seems to run and drive good.
I dont know if it is in 10 wheel drive all the time, or when I put it in low range, or??? Can anyone tell me how the front drive gets engaged?
I have many thoughts on what to do with...
Wade-- you are welcome! I was a little worried about how I was going to get it on the trailer, but we got it! It was funny because first I tried to push it on with my forklift---- haha- didnt even budge! Then, we pulled it with a CUCV pick up- it moved, but wouldnt pull it onto the...
WOW! Great pics!!!
I just got my first M818. It has 11.00 XLs on it. But I have every size tire for singling it out, plus I have 109 boxes and M35 beds. LOTS of options! The 'wheels' are turning lol.
Maybe I should get it home first:-D
Lots of inspiration from the pics---
This is something I have been working on----
I have 12 bolt H1 wheels that need nuts and o-rings for $50 ea. And 95% 37" tires for $100. We've been using the 2" spacers, but I am working on getting some wheels re-centered.
I will post up an ad when I get some done and get all the pricing...
I understand what you are saying... I was the same when I started, I just have a worse case of OD Fever than you! Trust me, I cant afford all of these trucks either!LOL I have been playing 'juggling credit cards' on the last 6! I told my GF today that I bought her a truck for her B-Day...
Yeah- I probably paid the most for this one. But I was over there this morning picking up and had a chance to take a quick look at them. This truck stood out as probably the best one. But some of the others went pretty cheap!
Thanks- I was too busy to remember to take pics of everything going on around here today, but here are a couple of pics of the M109s that I shot as I was leaving with the M1009 Blazers. Crappy pics, but all I got!
I have had several (about 25) Deuces in the last year, but I finally bought my very first 5 ton today! :-D Its a m818 tractor, looks very good with some new parts, next to new 11.00 XLs, and it runs! I have not driven it yet (or any 5 ton for that matter). I just won it on auction today, so...
