Thanks for the tour! A boy and his Tonka toy. 😉 Next you’ll be installing a pressure washer to give that monster a good bath after rolling in the mud. 😂
Ok that Crain is just handy! Very cool.
Can't wait to see the hand beaten aluminum body version you're going to make! 🤠
Love these trucks, I’ve owned a few of them! Feel free to contact me if you ever need assistance or help finding parts 👍🏼
i would like to buy one
Wow, cool truck. I've something really similar but in Ford C900 form. It has a 16 ton turret crane. You'll have fun with it. I miss the days of grocery shopping in a 4x4 crane.
Versatile unit. Lots of fun and practical use potential. 👍
Super cool! Looks like a lot of fun and also very handy.
Pretty cool rig chief. This 30yr trucker approves. :)
A proper big boys toy , different and a good head turner .
These are great. Was a nice update to the 21/2 ton military vehicles. But the army paid a hefty price for the windshields due to helmets lol.
Neat catch, especially for the low hours engine. Well taken care of, it should last you a loong time.
Man that's too cool!
Just awesome. I think I need one of those! Almost prefer it to your car and I’m a handmade car guy.
Cool truck!
Pre-form for a machine gun ring atop the cab could be a desirable option in mad max regions.
They are really sweet! Beats a pickup truck.
Excelente vídeo
That's more like it. Nice!
Make a great plow!! Pretty sweet ride. 🍺
you should get into cost of the truck with purchase price, the canopy fixes etc?
Super Cool Chris! Where do you find these things?
I bought this from a Military Museum in Illinois. Unfortunately because of the lockdowns they had to sell off part of their collection to make ends meet.
Thanks for sharing. Holy crap you don’t do anything half way do you. It’s a great set up and so nice for you that you don’t need an A class license. Have you forded any streams in it?
Thank you for showing your up to Par LMTV.
Need your Help, my LMTV wheel is tight/hard to steer. What kind of steering fluid do I need to fill? Do you know exactly where to fill? Thank you
Hey Nice Truck! I have been looking at those online and I am just wondering where you found yours? Your truck looks and sounds like it runs and drives really well, did you have to do any major repairs to it when you got it?
Seems like a nice guy too back he never responded
Epic 😎
Unsolicited suggestion. Perhaps install a Hella 002843011 - Hella Battery Master Disconnect Switches
( 31 ) Part Number: HLA-002843011
Hella 002843011 - Hella Battery Master Disconnect Switches $18.12. it's a small removal thing, It's not exactly a key but it can be easily wired so the truck can't start without it turned on.
Also consider installing a used air ride seat for the driver, there are plenty usable ones in truck junk yards.
Thanks for the video.
Neat!
How did you get tags
Hey Chris, is that board and batten on the garagae/barn exterior or a metal panel made to look like board and batten? Thanks!
It’s Board and Batten, not steel.
@ Ah, ok. Thanks, I was hoping it was that new steel to get your opinion on it. Building looks great either way though! So whats up with that bay door opener, is there a special apparatus in the making?
Pretty cool, is it automatic transmission?
Yep Allison 7 Speed. Apparently the Euro versions are manual.
SWEET MACHINE......whats the mpg for This ?
About 8 mpg
Good truck , how can we get one 🥸
Ear protection? Crane video would be welcome.
For lifting race cars?
Crane is mainly used for getting the spare tire up/down.
@@genemounce8302 the spare has its own lift system. I use the crane to load all sorts of stuff in the bed, as shown in the video 👍🏻
Reads like a good Andrew Camarata video
Cool. But why? What’s the plan?
Did my wife tell you to ask that🤣 I was thinking of doing a full Kamaz style shop rig with it. For now just yanking out tree stumps and learning everything I can about it!
@ Very cool!
He could use his fab skills to build it out as an outback style RV and somebody will buy it! (Even if it has to ship to Dubai)
@ hahaha
@ I envision you building a custom cab for it inspired by the design of your cars and a White 3000 garbage truck.
Please do this. :)
Cuanto cuesta este tipo de veículo? Pronto para rodar
so being you have the older model of Cat ,unless you have updated the ejectors ? you need to run some atf fluid in your fuel as they have changed the fuel formulas 7 dif times over the years and now the new formula Diesel, don't have as much slick in them , so the ATF fluid will add what the fuel need for the old injectors to work proper and not burn out , 1/2 quart per 50 gal of diesel , you go a bit less if you like , it will help the piston rings seal better to and it is best to stay away from Bio diesel with the older Cats , as the bio diesel eats up the seals in the injection pump , this only apply to diesel eng from 2000 and and older as they changed to a newer injector model
😎 truck, just don’t buy one of their BOPs. I heard at one time they were considering license building the G-Wagen in mil-spec for contracts. That would have been cool!
1:54 4800 miles when bought... driven it 800 miles in a couple of months > "driven it quite a bit" BWAHAhahahaha
You need that crain just to get the spare tire down ......
