Post pictures of your woodpile/splitting area

I like how ash smells and how it splits.

I've got into some maple, either rock or sugar not sure. That is quite a pleasant smell while splitting! Only one better was some eastern Red cedar I was processing. fresh air and fresh cut wood is therapy for the soul.

Not much room left in the woodshed,,5 or 6 truckloads and I'll be stacking outside and parking the splitter in the garage!

Split ash like this today. Makes hand splitting so much nicer!

Looks a lot nicer than the knotted white oak I was noodling on this weekend!

About half of what I split last year was white oak. I know now why they used it for bridges...

sounds like you need a bigger wood shed!

Moved 6 cords this weekend. Got 5 tri-axles in the last 10 days and 4 more on the way. Everything I split this summer is out the door.... Ill burn the scraps.

That's a lot of wood! Looks like you have the equipment to deal with it as well.

would certainly make it easier for you to finally go get all those downed trees you have been covering to hide from all the other scroungers

Got this in recently ,would make a good firewood truck ,has factory racks even ,has dana 60 front ,456 gears ,24 volt system even ,so you can jump start a tank if the need arises ,not rusty like the eastern trucks get

That is an awesome truck.

Camo paint job has got to be easy for the body shop to repair - no need to blend or feather colors to match . . .

235/85-16's...I loved those tires. Don't see them much anymore, all these fu-fu trucks have 17-20" rims.

Diesel engine? Does it run pretty well?

6.2 military ,civilian were different i'm told ,has 2 alternators ,must be 2 12's for the 24 volt system,i have not tried to turn it over yet ,i was told it drove to where it was parked 3-4 years ago

 

[svk]

awesome

You have to go to www.TheTruckStop.us and get some info for that 6.2 there. I am a site moderator there.
Nice truck. Dual alternators doesn't necessarily mean 24v's. The 24v's were strictly for military use.
If the truck sat for 3 to 4 years, I would imagine that the batteties need charging. You also have to be concerned with the fuel. Probably JP8. Maybe drain the fuel and put some new #2 diesel in it to get it going.
Go to the website and sign up. You'll get all the info you need there.

Cool beans man! That's what I wanted, but couldn't afford one, so settled on a couple civvie versions, similar truck with the 6.2. My half ton auto is a good runner now, the 3/4 ton with granny low four speed needs an engine though..had it running but it broke, something internal. Oh well, saving my nickles for an engine now. Does have matching new big dotmil tires, but aftermarket wheels. Man, I like all 80s trucks, don't matter who made em. Best era for trucks, IMO Those military ton and quarter chevvies though, badazz!
