Things maybe happening, I'm waiting for an update. Politicians, the media, and even the Ombudsperson are involved. Fingers crossed

Fellow Canadian military vehicle enthusiasts, I write this to you all today as an appeal for help. Not for me but for our hoppy and love of our vehicles. the BC government, ICBC, and the CVSE are actively trying to remove our vehicles from the road and indirectly prevent further importation...

Added a grounding kit, installed my smart start box, removed leaking heater core. Batteries currently charging, good used core going in today

I would financially prepare to replace everything. I took no chances. I started inspections at the wheel hubs and worked my way up. I ended up relacing all 6 wheel cylinders, all rubber lines, two steel lines, master cylinder, and rebuilt the air pak. Mainly due to pitting in the cylinders...

The truck is getting painted this weekend. I went with some smitty built seats. Aside from some spacers and drilling new holes these seats are drop in. Perfect for what I need. the drivers seat required a bit more work. Mainly a couple spacers and mounting plates. I reused the height and front...
