I see I was wrong....a 7/8 grade 8 is rated to about 500, fine thread. So the bolt is not the weak link. I've been working on the sand trail tire rims which have 24. It makes the A3 rim appear less robust....but that's just my opinion. Since I don't air down, I want enough to hold it out...

I read that and note that it gets tight with 1" left and that 350 ft lbs will not seal but 450 will. To me, that is indication that with the tires aired up, we may be close to the limits of our bolts. Do we need that much compression that just getting them together is so tight? I'm sure...

The hunt for a narrower one is easy.....they are on all the 5 ton combat singles. They measure 9". The question is, how much compression is needed. With a 1 5/16 bead x2 = 2 5/8". Then 11" - 2 5/8" = 8 3/8". Thus using a 10" actual width beadlock is compressed 1 5/8". Man....that sounds...

Measure the thickness of the bead itself. If the new tires are much thicker (bead), like the 16.00 that sue used, then dropping back to the beadlock used in 10" wheels (measures 9") may be an option. Since I don't have any 395s not mounted, I cannot compare with the 14.5. I'll post up the...

I live about 35 miles south of SB. The Fulton County Museum is right on US 31 and would make a good staging area for a convoy. There is overnight primitive camping and room for semis. I'll check with the museum to make sure the date is open. Their calendar shows open. Bring a canoe for...

Inside the NATO plugs the positive and negative come very close together in open air. Within 1/4". With small amount of water, they can have a steady, low drain that leaves the telltale signs of corrosion. If I keep them, for now I disconnect them, but I have used black silicone to fill the...

The PTO used on 5 ton dump and 925 will bolt to the m35A3 with the 1545 Allison. Kits are available for direct mount of a spline/SAE a or b to the PTO. But this is the A3 deuce not early models....not the same.

Transfer case lever maybe

If it were cargo, the frame would be cut and crossmembers repositioned. They may be anyway....can't see the back.

Maitake, shiitake. They are good on hardwood. Will try morels but no promises made.

Reduce, add air bag and shocks. But I'd go further and make it 4 x4.

What am I missing? I researched the wiper blades and came up with an Anco 41-01 and blade 31-13. They don't just slide together as the former post stated. I must have picked up the wrong numbers, the quick reference sticky has entirely different numbers.

I put a farm plate on and drive up to 150 miles. Not only don't I need a CDL but I can exceed the size and weight if pulling raw farm produce back to the farm. I have a small farm, but nobody asks. I'm taking that to mean my sawmill waste that I plan on growing mushrooms, on, although I'm...

Research.......this subject has been explored and traced to the manufacturers association.....not sure which one,

My former m817, titled as a Jeep, I always assumed was made in South bend. Would it ??? Years ago I had a tour of the hummer production line in SB while still making mil version.....was cool.

My 5 ton and ( I think) all 939 series were made by BMY Harsco, not AMG.

I got off track and have scaled back my trailer building projects, including my 1061. My plans are to finish the pockets on the sides and put a 3/8 x 3 flat on the outside, both sides. Makes it 8'4" wide. Uprights will hold steel deck sides, about 7' high and I will make bows for a canvas...

This thread popped up and I'll update a couple things. Running dish out A3 on a stock 105 puts the load entirely on the outer bearing...and wheels must be beveled for wheel nuts. While eventually I will modify my rims for the deuce, it's too much $$ for a 105. So...I'm going to bolster...

While you are at it, replace the well worn front springs with a fresh m105 set. The 105s hardly have any use on most of them and are a direct replacement. M y A3 will get them when it's place on the list is closer to the top.

Sure looks good! I really like that combination. I'm glad to see the caster modified. A big thanks to MWMules for transporting the wheels. Now for front hub lockouts. Air lockers too.....yippee. My 4x4 will eventually get at least the rear. The g177 is great but they mud up fast...a...
