That's really strange. Neither of those wheel types ever had 14''s on them in the military. Obviously 14's will fit on the wheel. But 14's won't fit on a 6x6 deuce. To find two separate instances of where someone changed tires from stock to 14''s is a low probability event. Both had to be on...

The wheel will bolt on. The issue is that the tire size is probably 14.5R20 and you probably have 395''s or larger on your truck currently. The first picture is an M35A3 wheel. The second picture is an MRAP wheel with an adapter plate. Both will bolt up to a deuce, except the tire sizes are...

Some guys have all the luck! Congrats! And welcome...

Looks like I may be within driving distance of this thing come May 19th ... Having never been, what do we do at these things? Do we sell ammo cans and other things? Do we shanghai extra hands for installing an LWS on an M925? (You never know what some people consider recreation....) I just...

Yeah, that's an issue. I'm going to compress the springer base to lower the total assembly.

The towbars made it to storage in KS. They still need a ride to NY if you make it to KS....

Seat install completed!

That's bizarre. It's not plausible that Steve put a 12v alternator in it.... Edit - PM sent

Passive booby traps are a felony most places, including California for sure. Although generally speaking if you catch them in the act there's not much limit to what you can do. It just can't be self activated.

Today's project is the resolution of the seating issue. Pictures of the problem, and the solution. Now to fab brackets.... I'm just going to mount the MRAP seat onto the springer base. I'm going to retain the original seatbelt that's part of the springer base.

More than I'd consider putting in a pickup truck....

Apparently NE DMV is now saying no to all MV's, and has stated they plan to revoke titles - https://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?178427-Licensing-M915-s&p=2128751#post2128751

Interesting. Personally I would want to reward that company by giving them the other vehicles as well, even if higher $. By the same token, if i had to go to another company for my MV's, I'd move everything there including the house. The message I want to send is "being MV friendly brings...

My poor truck has been on blocks for almost two years. I had a chance to sell the G177's off it (THANKS CLINT!), with the intent of replacing them with 395's within just a couple of weeks. Life got in the way and it didn't' happen. Meanwhile the blocks sank into the ground, and what I have...

Yell obscenities at it.... Got towbars?

And the fun continues...

Funny you should mention that. Today I'm mounting some onto my M925. It's a workout.... for me and the redtruck. Pull the front mudflaps before you start. And I highly recommend these offset lugnuts. You'l need them on the front axle anyway on an 809series truck.

You'd think the belt would slip with any serious pull. Obviously it doesn't or it wouldn't be made that way. Very interesting.

Either HEMTT rim works without rubbing up front.
