    I had a pile of medical chests, but they are all gone...... However, if anyone wants any, I do have maybe 20 or so military 5 gallon water cans (plastic ones) for $12 a piece I could bring. Just let me know though.

    Pic request! S250 shelter in M105 trailer

    No, the wheel wells on a M101 are too narrow for a S-250 by about 3 inches. It would fit if you narrowed the wheel wells. I just spent a bit of time measuring my trailers and S-250. I was hoping to put mine in a M101 but its going in a M105 instead. With the tailgate down there will be a nice 4...

    11x20 VS 395 offroad performance

    OK, thanks to all the info supplied in this thread I have decided to go with 14.5s and found a source that I can actually afford! Seems to me that the 14.5s offer a good balance overall for my specific needs. One question though, will a 14.5 spare fit in the standard location??? thanks for...

    11x20 VS 395 offroad performance

    OK.....oh my..........where can I find 14.5 tires at a good price!!!!!!!!!!!! Man, those look awesome and exactly like what I am looking for. Height of the 11.00x20 but with more width. But not as big as the 395s..... sexy........looks like the best of both worlds.....

    11x20 VS 395 offroad performance

    OK, for some reason I thought 395s and 14.5s were just about identical in size. Did not know the 14.5s were the same height as a 11.00....good to know. How much wider are the 14.5s than the 11.00? Should they be mounted on wider than stock rims? Hmmm, something else to think about.....

    11x20 VS 395 offroad performance

    Hey everyone! I just wanted to say thanks for all the input, comments and info shared so far. Really appreciate it. I am leaning towards 11.00x20s right now. If I were back in Maine then I agree with the chains comments. I never saw a skidder without them either. Kansas though is...

    11x20 VS 395 offroad performance

    It's time for me to upgrade the tires on my Deuce. But while I love the look of the huge 395 type super singles I really wonder about how much clearance they have and how much less movement there will be in the suspension before they hit. So I've been leaning towards 11x20 radials singled out...

    S-280 shelter mounting block source?

    Now that is what I am talking about! See, this is why I love this **** site. I went from knowing NOTHING about Deuces to buying one, putting a winch on, now a S-280 and learning a whole lot. Every time I get confused or need something one post is all it takes. You guys rock!
