    M923 5 ton 6x6 cutting up for axles?

    At some point I'll be picking up this military 5 ton 6x6. I'll possibly keep it but I'm thinking about chopping it for the axles to build a mud truck. This won't be for awhile but what all can I expect to do to cut it up myself if so?

    Should I pull the axles and just trailer it in to a scrap yard whole? Or should I get myself a torch and torch it? What all will I be doing to dismantle a 22,000 lb truck?



    Start from the bottom up? Top down?

    I likely wouldn't save much else, if I go this route I'll trash it all. Thoughts?
