Agree detroit or a grizzley locker. You'll need to find an open carrier to install them in.

eric28miller · 10-19-2014, 11:07 AM

Thanks for the input guys

Soo for those of you wondering if this truck is just another trailer queen.. answer is no, unless that means it always has a trailer hooked up then yes lol
Hauled this house section just yesterday. I was very pleased with how the truck handled it, felt a lot of confidence behind the wheel. She could definitely haul much heavier payloads. My friend took a video of me climbing a very steep grade on a gravel road, i'll get it posted when he sends it to me.
Heres a few pics, enjoy

That's my kind of trailer queen! Are the Mickey's e range. Seems like a lot of the larger tires I've looked at jump around between d and e somewhat randomly.

eric28miller · 10-19-2014, 02:50 PM

They're D range rated for 3,750 lbs. which I think is pretty impressive for a soft mud tire

MTCK · 10-19-2014, 09:50 PM

That's really good and a lot higher than many load range e tires.

hardcore4life · 10-20-2014, 08:51 AM

You moved a house

eric28miller · 11-03-2014, 10:58 PM

Made a test hook last night, enjoy!

So f'ing cool

MTCK · 11-04-2014, 02:51 AM

That's a good idea! Just leave the cat in neutral with the blade down?

eric28miller · 11-04-2014, 11:05 AM

yea it worked perfectly, he dropped the blade half way then started pushing down harder to slow me down, til my cv joint popped, thats why I stopped

Successfully found a weak point!

MTCK · 11-04-2014, 12:25 PM

that's easier to fix than a lot of things. Nice work.

Def NOT built to be a trailer queen...very cool

Baddest Square Body I've Ever Seen!!! Awesome Job!!!!

eric28miller · 11-09-2014, 01:01 PM

Thanks! Glad you guys understand, lot of a$$holes on the internet..

jlsanborn · 11-09-2014, 02:09 PM

My gawd that thing is badazz!!

legendman · 11-09-2014, 03:01 PM

Awesome!!! Bummer on the drive shaft

**Dieselwrencher** · 11-10-2014, 03:44 PM

That stinks on the front drive shaft. Did I see your front axle hopping pretty good towards the end when the blade started going down on the dozer? That was probably the culprit that killed the drive shaft.

randawesome · 11-25-2014, 12:02 AM

Saw the dozer video on Facebook. Wow what a bunch of stupid assholes leavin comments. It was kinda funny to see all the "know it all" comments that obviously came from guys who didn't know **** about this beast you've built.

Hankster · 03-15-2015, 05:14 PM

Glad to see you really use this thing! Just found this on Facebook ..

Hey guys haven't been on here in months, thought i'd give ya a quick update. Winter flew by and spring fieldwork really snuck up on me so the truck never got put back together. Building a new home was no help either!.. I just dropped the head back on last night. Hoping to have it running and out of storage this weekend! When I pulled the head off to replace the head gasket I found major piston slap damage! And this block is already bored to the max so decided to throw it back together and have fun for the summer while looking for a stock 24 valve block I can swap everything into next winter. I think this block is cursed anyway ; ) So if you guys hear of any plz lemme know! I also know where a good filled 24v block is if somebody is just looking to make a puller we can trade. Anyway beer break is over, back to work on the white giant.
