This is just a hobby. Former military vehicle owners are a very small community and these trucks are not usually driven daily unless the owner is using it for commercial purposes.
There was a guy in Wisconsin he had one and pulled a 48 foot spread axle flatbed with it. Hadn’t seen him a a while but that doesn’t mean he isn’t out there.
Victor Vanderhyde I am not sure. I know you can get lockers for them but install labor, if you outsourced it, would be considerable. The diffs are top load so accessing them may prove challenging.
The Marines frequently order trucks with lockers. It's really not silly if you think about it, lockers and the other upgrade parts (such as larger axle shafts) required to run them are expensive. It also makes the truck harder to operate and more prone to drive train failures, especially when you have inexperienced 18 year old military personnel operating them. They are actually really well designed. The trucks usually run out of power or traction before anything fails.
J Shafer I've thought about it a lot and it is, in fact, silly. Why would they design and order some with lockers and some without? They are for extreme off-road use. I've gotten mine "stuck" in very little off-road terrain.... some clay-mud.... it was so ridiculous watching one tire spin per axle. If you're doing serious off-roading, lockers are the way to go. They were just cheap with the 6x6. I bet making a 4x4 with full lockers would be superior off-road vs 6x6.

Compare these to the Soviet trucks, its not even a contest. I'm a proud American but those Soviet/Russian trucks kick our ass. I think its largely because the American trucks don't have lockers. I've seen Soviet trucks tow about 30-40,000 lbs of logs through a river about 6-7ft deep. Now thats real off-roading.
Well the Soviet mindset was very different from the American mindset. The Soviet mindset was learned from WW2, where the extreme mud conditions of the Rasputitsa gave hell to the Germans and then the extreme snow also gave hell (gave hell to the Soviets too, but they liked that it slowed the Germans). As such, the Soviet mindset was: 1) Do not design a major system of roads that would make it super easy for the enemy to just drive right into Russia and straight to the major cities like Moscow 2) Design vehicles capable of dealing with the special climate and terrain Or on that last part, I would at least assume, as I don't know much about Soviet trucks :D
Yeah, I love these trucks too, but offroad they suck compared to trucks of most other countries. They should at least have lockers for the two rear axles, lots of over the road tractors have them.

Interesting watch. I was just having some conversations with some guys here in Washington state about rigs. This is a good demonstration of what will work and what won't and where and why. Thanks for the share.
BlackHorseMilitia I live in Spokane Washington and I’ve seen 4-5 of them in town my hole life. I see them pull people out of some deep snow when we get it. 1-2 of the trucks were tractor trailers and they seem to do fine in any weather. Even the mud at the city’s ORV park.
One of the biggest problems with these bigger trucks getting stuck is not only leaving their diffs open. But the lack of weight. These are Army trucks designed to be loaded down. The ass ends when empty are too light for adequate traction on the rear tires. Put some weight on them like an extra couple of tons and then these trucks would walk right through everything here and not spin a tire.
Jeez, these 5 tons don’t have lockers. So what. They have 6x6 drive. Some of them have the 8.3 Cummins Turbo Diesel 1990-1991, some have the NHC 250 Cummins non turbo (14 liter engine mid 1980’s). Both of them weigh over 22,000 lbs, and they are still playing around in the mud like it’s nothing. So they get stuck every now and then. It happens when you push the limits of what machines can do. They are awesome vehicles! Very capable at climbing, pulling, mudding and just looking cool. I am sure your Russian truck is cool too, it’s not a competition, unless you feel inferior about your trucks, it’s just a video, everybody stay calm and enjoy the America being splashed around.
Yeah guess what 6x6 doesn't mean shit without lockers, they start to lose traction and less tires are spinning than any 4x4 with lockers. A lifted g-wagon is just as capable as these at offroading
I love the M939 series 5 tons. Drove the 1st gen in desert storm, they didn`t do well in sand with the duel wheels, but the A1s,and A2s were better with the big tires. A2s had the central tire inflation system which was good when it worked.
Cool video, maybe someone can answer this question. On the big trucks, what that triangle looking piece on the front wheels? Some sort of valve stem protector?
Over seas , back in the 60's, I drove everything from jeeps to 10 ton ammo trucks and I liked 5 tons the least. The deuce and a half was the easiest and best all around as I remember.
These 5 tons actually came from our unit I'm in the 298th SMC 378th battalion I knew these trucks looked familiar glad they are getting out to good use your welcome guys take care of them
These trucks aren't really that great offtoad they all have open diffs, they might as well be priuses since only one wheel gets power when they're stuck....

OMG BRINGS BACK MEMORIES OF DRIVING THESE IN GERMANY. ALSO GOT MINE STUCK IN THE TANK MUD FIELD. HAD TO GET PULLED OUT BY A M1A1 RECOVRY TANK. TOOK A LONG TIME TO WASH ALL THE MUD OFF. A BIG MESS. BUT HAD LOTS OF FUN. I DROVE OVER 200,000 MILES ACROSS GERMANY.
6.38 to 1 gearing in all 3 axles plus a very low low range, if these m932a2's had the off-road tires instead of highway tires or if they used the ctis system to air down they will go almost anywhere, I drove them in the army.
Drove these in the army, they were adequate but higher center of gravity that the 818 series. Those Goodyear tires were trash in mud, and better for highway use. I still loved my HEMTT for stuff like this.
The square bodies, aka CUCVs were the vehicles in the fleet before the HMMWVs. Not a big GM fan, but they were over enginered and under powered. I am also a bigger fan of the M923 generation 5 tons. The first gen didn't have super singles and much stronger motors in them.
I was s little worried they b.v were goinnto attempt to tug out the 5 CD ton with bvb t by ed cucv when I s as w it comexaround the one mid pitiful mean I live cucv but I dont think its pulling outa5ton
I used to drive a bigger but smilar one 7ton truck in military. Its the most painful truck to drive. Noisy, hot very uncomfortable etc. Once i had to put a trailer for an excercise and it literally became a train. Bloody long and heavy. But sometimes fun when i had to go offroad. I've drived a crane version, cargo, oil tanker. Had a unique experience for two years struggling to make these beast stay in good condition.
So when i was in we had the Oshkosh lmtvs which replaced these, for the most part anyways we still had a few wasting away at the back of our motor pool not sure if they even ran, anyways I'm curious how the lmtvs would do in mud like this they have lockers and this tire inflation/deflation system for different terrain like highway, mud,sand,snow would be pretty cool to see
Zachary Lowrie the lmtv really dosnt so as well. The onboard computer limits wheel slip like tcs in a normal car. I was a driving instructor at ft Polk. We got to beat the living SHIT out of everything from the h1's to the new MATV.(which is like a off road corvette lol)
I drove the both the. m54 5ton and m52 5 ton tractor with the 6 cylinder multifule.engine with a turbocharger. The m38 2.1/2 ton had the same engine with out the turbocharger both with 10 forword gears and 2 reverse. This was back in the 70's wile I was in the Marines !
Join the army and you get paid to do this and much more. They teach you how to do this properly with the biggest and baddest toys you can only dream of and they pick up the tab for fuel, breakages and damages! The best off roading is when you getting paid to do it and not liable for costs!

Cody, you seen to have a tenuous grasp of vehicle weight rating. a 5 ton mil spec truck will pull 5 tons up a 60% grade. 5 tons have been known to pull well over 100,000 pounds.
SuperMotoSean 419 they do use these for logging ...the 5ton and deuce and a half (2 1/2ton) but the best for logging is the HET (heavy equipment transport truck) it's is 8x8 and it's what they use to transport Bradly tanks it is a beast to drive and if the mud looks too deep then you can just drive around it even with the pine trees lol.... it'll tow the earth
+john martin the deuce an a half isn't nearly heavy enough. we had 2 of them we used to haul wood out of bad roads to where road trucks could get it. (swamp logger). transmission's wouldn't hold up. and the all fuel Perkins lacked on power. But with that being said low range 1st gear was a beast. I've seen the rear ends pulling mud and still crawling with 25 tons of wood behind it. I have seen the motor's chock out and start running backwards. pulling air through the stack and blowing exhaust out the air filter. the Cummins are alot better
I used to take my Army 5 ton 1944 4x4 Autocar cabover into the woods and just drive over and knock down 8” trees in granny low.... Truck was unstoppable Gas 509 cubic inch flathead six
in mud an air locker is gold i took my f600 to the tractor pull the first year i "finished" the build and i was so disappointed the 7.8 made all the power in the world but i just could not get the power down the next year i had lockers and i got 3 times farther it was still a weak run going up against newer rigs and people with more money but hey it did good for its age
34486 SCI but is also called a "1 ton". Also sounds like something's wrong if that f350 weighs 5 tons. My 1999 1 1/4 ton dually dump truck with a double frame, pintle plate, 19.5" rims and 16 ply tires weighs 9800 lbs
I also have a big aluminum flatbed, which is lighter than the stock bed. So its probably right under 10, but still when it had the stock bed it was 10,000, and that is a lot. I also only got 10 plys. Though the frame is about half inch thick (which is stock) Its possibly the cab that has all the weight..? Idk. I don't remember putting/seeing any rear frame weights for more traction, I could be wrong and wouldn't be surprised.

Would a locked diff on the tan truck help? He seems to be spinning the wrong tires
Most definitely. True 6x6 locked up would be unstoppable
I miss the old 5 ton. Much better off road than the lmtvs
Drove these in the army, they were adequate but higher center of gravity that the 818 series.
Those Goodyear tires were trash in mud, and better for highway use.
I still loved my HEMTT for stuff like this.
So sick! I want to DD one of these beasts just to piss people off, haha. Also, came for the 5 tons, was pleasantly surprised to see squarebodies.
The square bodies, aka CUCVs were the vehicles in the fleet before the HMMWVs. Not a big GM fan, but they were over enginered and under powered. I am also a bigger fan of the M923 generation 5 tons. The first gen didn't have super singles and much stronger motors in them.
We had super singles on our 813s in the mid 90s. I think you had better control with manual trans but the brakes were better on the 900s
I was s little worried they b.v were goinnto attempt to tug out the 5 CD ton with bvb t by ed cucv when I s as w it comexaround the one mid pitiful mean I live cucv but I dont think its pulling outa5ton
Wait till those kids get back to show n tell lol i wanna see n do this looks fun af lol
Wow, this is a great hobby. I really like watching off road
🙏🙏
Off road wheels and tires would make both of them more bad ass. This video is awesome!
i love the sounds. what engines are they running?
8.3 Cummins
I used to drive a bigger but smilar one 7ton truck in military. Its the most painful truck to drive. Noisy, hot very uncomfortable etc. Once i had to put a trailer for an excercise and it literally became a train. Bloody long and heavy.
But sometimes fun when i had to go offroad. I've drived a crane version, cargo, oil tanker. Had a unique experience for two years struggling to make these beast stay in good condition.
My wife will be sooo pissed when she sees one of these taking up the drive way!...Fuck it, looks like 5tons o' fun!!
Lets buy big trucks with no diff locks like cheeps and cover evrything in mud so we are fucked at fixing anything. Have a nice day.
So when i was in we had the Oshkosh lmtvs which replaced these, for the most part anyways we still had a few wasting away at the back of our motor pool not sure if they even ran, anyways I'm curious how the lmtvs would do in mud like this they have lockers and this tire inflation/deflation system for different terrain like highway, mud,sand,snow would be pretty cool to see
Zachary Lowrie the lmtv really dosnt so as well. The onboard computer limits wheel slip like tcs in a normal car. I was a driving instructor at ft Polk. We got to beat the living SHIT out of everything from the h1's to the new MATV.(which is like a off road corvette lol)
I drove the both the. m54 5ton and m52 5 ton tractor with the 6 cylinder multifule.engine with a turbocharger. The m38 2.1/2 ton had the same engine with out the turbocharger both with 10 forword gears and 2 reverse. This was back in the 70's wile I was in the Marines !
Ops m35 duce an a half
Join the army and you get paid to do this and much more. They teach you how to do this properly with the biggest and baddest toys you can only dream of and they pick up the tab for fuel, breakages and damages! The best off roading is when you getting paid to do it and not liable for costs!
Andrew Wilson not paid enough tho
Rishi Solanki it's not about the money, it's about being part of something,personal pride,self respect and being in a band of brothers. Best times ever.
fair enough, I respect that
Andrew Wilson ya minus the bullets flying and sand in your boots and no girls.
Andrew Wilson the getting shot part you didn't mention might FUCK things up a little.
OOOMMGoodness AHHHHH now this is how you do it! this is what i've been missing since i got out of the millitary and i want this truck sooooo bad , i remember once taking one of these 5T's Cummins diesel to the limit up a steep cliff just like here in this video out in the field at FT.Bragg 82nd (ABN) with soilders filled to the rim on the back of it while doing it....mane the cuss words was flying from the East to the West, up N. to down South from the back of the bay i couldn't do nothing but laugh.
Did you do this kind of stuff while in the military?! Thats rad if so!
@@4WDTrek Somewhut like the video, but not up no big gient rocks but yes up steep ridges nd hills to where our treining site were so flooding would'nt be uh problem, i wus uh E-4 (Specielist) et the time driving en my E-6 Plt. SSgt. were riding shotgun n we peeked et the top of this ridge then the truck sterted to bog down en it just kept bucking, then the soilders on the bek begen to yell n cus n screem, so i wus tempted to bek down the hill n find nother wey round, but the Serge wus like nope we got to keep going so i put the truck in Neutrol, then locked in the 6x6 (front exel) nd just floored it, then the truck climbed right up the hill we hed bout 15 troops on bek, n pulling uh 500 gl. wuter buffulo filled to the rim, everytime i think ubout it i leugh true story.
But I'd really like to see what these 5 tons can haul.
Augie L they can haul 5 tons

a crane helicopter can haul a truck 5 tons or not

Augie L they can haul 5 tons

who is a word - THEY -
Cody, you seen to have a tenuous grasp of vehicle weight rating. a 5 ton mil spec truck will pull 5 tons up a 60% grade. 5 tons have been known to pull well over 100,000 pounds.
bestameri
Surprised me they had no diff locks or cross locks on 6wd trucks, great vid :-)
That would be insane. 3 axle locks. 6x6 locked up would go anywhere!
Maybe they should try spin tires first.
0:00. Love the 6.2 diesel!!
Used to drive one of these beasts for a logging company I used to work for
TheGrizzness 1776 I was just thinking that these would be perfect logging trucks.
SuperMotoSean 419 they do use these for logging ...the 5ton and deuce and a half (2 1/2ton) but the best for logging is the HET (heavy equipment transport truck) it's is 8x8 and it's what they use to transport Bradly tanks it is a beast to drive and if the mud looks too deep then you can just drive around it even with the pine trees lol.... it'll tow the earth
+john martin the deuce an a half isn't nearly heavy enough. we had 2 of them we used to haul wood out of bad roads to where road trucks could get it. (swamp logger). transmission's wouldn't hold up. and the all fuel Perkins lacked on power. But with that being said low range 1st gear was a beast. I've seen the rear ends pulling mud and still crawling with 25 tons of wood behind it. I have seen the motor's chock out and start running backwards. pulling air through the stack and blowing exhaust out the air filter. the Cummins are alot better
john martin 915 and 916 was used for moving Bradley’s (not a tank)
TheGrizzness 1776 seems like the perfect choice of truck to be used for the logging industry
Its great to see you enjoying your vehicles.
this reminds me of large hippos playing in the mud. how cool.
Very nice Big Scale Off road run video~
I would love to have an 6x6 like that as a daily truck...
I enjoyed watching you folks play with these...
I'm not convinced that lockers would make much of a difference in a mire this bad. All that would happen, is all 6 wheels spinning instead of 3 or 4.
The tires are a huge difference. These bald tires at full pressure don't do much. Would love to find someone to compare my jeep jk on my channel
Oh He'all Yea! Even Leon, my 78' FJ-40 is drooling!
There gonna be half a inch of snow I think I need a 5 ton truck to go through it. That my grandma mind set
Quality video. Love the trucks, im glad this was in my recommended
В американской технике блокировок нет?
Я знаю, я ожидал, что у этих вещей тоже будут блокировки дифференциала.
I know, I expected these things to have differential locks too.
Есть, но они их почему-то не включают, о чем тут многие и пишут...
I see a lot of fellow Steel Soldiers here! Great show Men!!!
Trees gonna love all that carbon lol
I used to take my Army 5 ton 1944 4x4 Autocar cabover into the woods and just drive over and knock down 8” trees in granny low....
Truck was unstoppable
Gas 509 cubic inch flathead six
Reminds me of snowrunner
That's why I found myself here🤣
Nice trucks, sounds like 4 strokes?
Desmos Dromos few cummins and sounded like one Detroit 2 stroke idk
How can a truck like the tan colored one not have diff lock?
Probably didn't come factory. Meant to tow, not off road. But that would be insanw
.....coolest trucks to ever walk the earth...
If those things had locking diffs they'd be pretty awsome
That would be insane. True 6x6 all locked up. Nothing could stop them
in mud an air locker is gold i took my f600 to the tractor pull the first year i "finished" the build and i was so disappointed the 7.8 made all the power in the world but i just could not get the power down
the next year i had lockers and i got 3 times farther it was still a weak run going up against newer rigs and people with more money but hey it did good for its age
And here I sit in my w900 kenworth crying because I can't do that HAHAHAHA oh man I gotta buy me a deuce
1999 F350 Superduty (not a dually), 7.3 ZF6 super cab longbed (all stock) weighs 10,000 lb (5 tons)
34486 SCI but is also called a "1 ton". Also sounds like something's wrong if that f350 weighs 5 tons. My 1999 1 1/4 ton dually dump truck with a double frame, pintle plate, 19.5" rims and 16 ply tires weighs 9800 lbs
I also have a big aluminum flatbed, which is lighter than the stock bed. So its probably right under 10, but still when it had the stock bed it was 10,000, and that is a lot. I also only got 10 plys. Though the frame is about half inch thick (which is stock) Its possibly the cab that has all the weight..? Idk. I don't remember putting/seeing any rear frame weights for more traction, I could be wrong and wouldn't be surprised.
these buggers are just digging up the track making them impassable, good show though.
AMLagonda
This is true. But they are in a off road park where most consider that a good thing!
Wow, SnowRunner maker might saw this video before they design the game... All these dudes are in the game...
The Chevy, the GAZ, and the truck which looks the same like fictional truck ANK MK38 military grade... Wow, such powerful soul these dudes have along the mud...
