Oshkosh HET Truck Loads On My Cabover Peterbilt

[@eugenekline8518]

Nothing better then the sound of a 2 stroke Detroit

[@dp.oennismaurer205]

A lot of the HETT's were returned to OSHKOSH CORP. by the military to be retrofitted with a CAT diesel, new hood, plumbing & wiring. The front & rear axles steered on these. OSHKOSH in the past made some real big trucks called the Desert Knight and Desert Prince. These were CAT powered, and there was a model with hub reduction rears like the HAYES and PACIFIC trucks with a flatbed body that hauled CAT D-7 or D-8's around over- seas.

OMG THATS IS A BEAST! I am from the UK and we used to have a TOP truck company called SCAMMELL that built all our military trucks sadly they went bust many years ago. I bought and old scrap 1954 Scammell Explorer Tank Recovery truck and restored her, I pulled 120 tons with her one time!! Would love to drive that!!

[@perrylc8812]

I’m surprised someone has fixed one of these up to be in a truck show. Add a big sleeper & a fancy paint job with plenty of LED lighting.

[@2Pish]

@22:28 I love how effortlessly this cabover just pulls that military truck like it's nothing...and it's so satisfying to hear the engine rev when it has a heavy load like that.

Drive it like a car,that 1070 trailer is awesome and the 1040 can pull anything

[@ddnbproductions3329]

Your suspension dump is the control for the air system to the left of the steering wheel. You've got it in on road in the video. Turn the toggle switch on that panel on, cycle the control to emergency and hit the start button on that panel and it will deflate the tires. Do this while the engine is running. To air up, just select one of the other modes and his start again.

[@Studio23Media]

I was always curious why they stopped making cabovers. Watching you get in and out when hooking up the trailer makes it pretty clear. That looks exhausting. I wonder if in modern times they could remedy that with technology by adding steps that deploy when the door opens and fold when closed, like on pickups. 🤔

[@AnomadAlaska]

Nice improvised rigging on that job. Looked like a workout people pay to do at the gym. Military trucks are cool because they are all function, no bull snot.

[@chrismanning1171]

I use to drive the M1070 Super HET when I was in the Army. There is nothing like neutral dropping down a hill on the German Autobahn with a 70 ton tank on the retailer. Kinda scary and fun at the same you pass station wagons and the little kids are looking up and waving as you speed by them. Going up hill is a different story. German truck drivers gave us the bird alot because we were so slow going up hills in a convoy.

[@Braxton15able]

What the hell your putting it in neutral going down hill. How did you get your cdl that's illegal

[@chrismanning1171]

@@Braxton15able If you did not put it in neutral then there was a high chance to overrun the compressor trying to use the air brakes keeping the 70TON load plus the weight of the truck and trailer under the speed limit going down a very long hill. Or you will just burn up a boogie(s), lock it up, and catch it on fire. Its just to much weight to try to stay at convoy speed or posted autobahn speeds. The transmission sounds like it is ready to explode and the low air warning buzzer stays on as your air pressure continues to drop from pumping the brakes. So we put some space between trucks as we crested a hill and down we go. Of course I was driving in the Army and in Europe.

[@russ1376]

@@chrismanning1171 i run the engine break at full mode when going down steep grade with occasional foot break with no problem but yea i did the neutral mode to make it up the next grade as high as possible.

[@christophermanning9429]

@@russ1376 If you drove in Germany then you would know there were some monster hills. The transmission could not take it when it was screaming sounding like it was ready to bust through the floor board. Yes, I ran the engine brake on high and light braking. I have seen boogies get burned up and locked up trying to ride the brakes down a hill. Our convoy commander tried to keep the convoy at 40 mph going down a hill once and he found at the hard way that a combine weight of the 70 ton tank and the 15 ton tractor/trailer was not going to be held back by the brakes. He quickly got out of the way before being ran over.

should’ve just used the CTIS to dump the air out of all tires and when you get to your destination start the truck and let it air up the tires again while your taking your chains off. the chairs in the back are bunk beds for the 2 drivers and when hauling a tank that’s where the 4 tank crews seat during the trip.

he was trying to dump the air bags. the airbags don’t get empty if you open all the air tanks. it’s a standard to drain the air tanks when the vehicle is parked at the end of the day. easier way to lower the height of the vehicle is to drain the air on the tires using the CTIS.
