There are a lot of different kinds of mv's up at the Butte. There are also a few mv gatherings up there during the year. They are always a good time. I used to be there basically every other weekend until I moved to Florida.

Good luck on the new purchase! Not real close to help out and not on the path of the trip.

There is a m920 close by to you on 16.00's up at elephant butte lake. If you go to some of the gatherings up there you will run into him, and I bet he has some good advice for the truck if you had any questions on parts and such

What about the Firestones, can't quite remember if they are 831? Also the 15.5 x 80

I would still say not a CUCV even with your definition. If that was the case, then my 1970 Chevy C-10 that had painted on the doors for government use only would be a CUCV. Just another nice old Chevy the military used.

Not sure what your budget is but I looked on cl and there is a brand new 20 foot flatbed with a 12,000 gvwr for $3,750 in your neck of the woods.

I would say just rent a trailer for now until you find the right one. That trailer looks like it has five lug wheels and probably won't handle the weight well. If it was me I would keep looking.

My personal opinion on BFG's, is they are way overpriced and don't hold up all that well for the long haul. I have had them in all terrains and mud terrains on my diesel pickups in the past. Almost any tire shop will have a wide selection of options for you to pick. Personally I prefer...

Buy the m36 as a package deal and just tow bar it home, problem solved until later.

Welcome from Port Orange

Any help someone could give you knowledge wise that isn't in the area?

I disagree too with the lack of off road capability. Some people just don't know how to drive them or air down properly. We pull trucks and trailers all the time out of deep sand and mud at elephant butte lake in New Mexico. My buddy pulls a 40 foot fifth wheel through the deep sand all the...

Also m915

The M25 and M26, I think fall into above the 10 ton category.

You don't have to flip the hubs, just run the rears dished out. I had mine that way for a while but with airing down for all the sand in New Mexico it kept spinning the tubes. In the end it's worth getting the proper wheels if you plan on using it off road and airing down.

Also check or just change your fuel filter. Could be water accumulated in the fuel. Had it happen on my duramax before.

I second with Carnac, it would be way to darn hot to be driving across the great state! It's a cool idea but maybe in the fall would be a better idea.

On my m35a2 I drained the oil and filled with the corn head grease, but mine is just a pto winch. Yours is hydraulic, so I'm not sure if you are able to do the corn head grease. Hopefully someone else will be able to chime in with some better advice.

That is his compound you are referring to.

I just saw this today. It's a sad thing to hear, I had dealt with Ed Davis a couple of times and he was a really helpful and nice guy.
