List,
Sorry for posting my hard drive address for the 5-ton dump conversion
that I posted last night. My friend Rick Lathers pointed this out to me,
so I created a page that you can view (Thanks, Rick):

List,
I know that some of you are really against modifications on a military
vehicle,
but I had an account that really needed a long wheelbase 5-ton to convert to
a dump truck to haul grain out of fields. My multifuel 5-ton fit the bill, so
they
purchased it and converted it to: C:\digpics\cornell.jpg (<- this is wrong
part)
Talk about a BIG dump truck, I hate to think what a new (or even used) rig
like
this would cost. This truck must run in low range alongside the combine to get
filled, then take the grain to the elevator. I must say they did an
outstanding job!
I'm not much for modifying mil-vehicles, but this was a case of being able to
enable them to have a truck they needed and stay within a limited budget. They
retained the military stuff on the truck and it can be converted back to
original.
