No modifications needed
Straight bolt on replacement. Hubs in or out on rear just like originals. The only difference between the stock and Ouverson is going to be the 10 bolt pattern instead of a 6 bolt.
There are other differences ( material, weight, etc etc) but they are of no concern to...
adapter plates
I too was looking for data on adapting to 10 bolt and found Chuck's Trucks. They make adapter plates but they want $2K for them!
This will be a "correct" way to put 10 bolt wheels (even commercial alcoa) on your deuce.

Ouverson Engineering
I just talked with Randy at Ouverson. He has a Wicked 6 alloy hub that he builds. He is going to modify his program (minimal effort) and build a set of 10 bolt hubs for me to test the market for this product.
He has not seen the demand for 5ton wheels being adapted to...
Trailer
I have one with an Amtech Helmet hard top and 8 lug axle with HMMWV tires and wheels. I will also throw in a Rhino spare tire carrier. Also includes full length tie downs in the floor of the trailer.

Looked around for a few hours on here tonight and no dice.
I want to put an LDS in one of my bobbed trucks and an Allison MT654CR. Anyone done this???
If not has anyone put an auto behind an LDT or LDS?
Justin
no drama...
Because the gladhands are higher... there is no drama. I even extended them out farther than the previous pics to include the valves.

George and Justin are in.
George and I are in. Have not decided if we are bringing one or two bobbers yet but we will be there.
I have two 25x25 tents for a commons area so rain or shine we can gather. I can also bring a BBQ pit.
This is Texas so put us down for some dead cow. We...
Good question
Good question.
I tuck the rear crossmember in 8" to hide the pintle for tailgate inversion. When the body is mounted the pintle does not stick out past the bed. The gladhands will also be tucked under the bed.
Next weekend I will mount the bed and put a trailer on it and...
I am bobbing another deuce this weekend and I had a thought for a convenient and protected trailer air supply location. This location will keep you from having to walk around the truck to attach the emergency air gladhand.
I enlarged the top 1/2" holes where the bumperettes mount so no new...
coupler
Please post some pics of the device that is on the shaft of the winch. I mounted a 20,000# winch under the bed of my bobber and I need to power it. That coupler looks like the missing link because I have a PTO w/ rear hydro pump on my trans. All I need is the unit that converts hydro...
Yup
Yup, cheapo 1000#.
They are on sale right now for $99 (reg $169). The piston rusts easily but so far it has been a good addition. I just keep it stored in the fully retracted position to protect the shaft from the elements.
Side note: if you buy one note the location of the rotation...
