    would you drive on this?

    My fronts are (visually) very new tires. My rears however are a totally different story. My rear tires have weather checkering like that. I've done a lot of highway speed on road driving and hit some major bumps (on accident). IMO those don't look too bad for rears.

    Lifting a Bobbed Deuce

    Just a 1" spacer should be enough I'd think.

    46" Tires Performance

    There's a guy in Indy who has a Dodge Ram on Rockwell's and he runs the rear dualled with different tires. I think XML's on the inside and XL's out.

    Common Oil Pressure?

    That's about what my truck runs too, since the first oil change. Mine might drop down to 20psi at idle if I sit for a while.

    I got the broke deuce blues

    Not much of a consolation, but you made my broke deuce blues feel not so bad, haha. I thought mine was in rough shape, but it's a diamond in comparison. Now, cosmetically, mine is still a turd... doors are rusted, bed is rusted, and the fenders could use some help.

    Lifting a Bobbed Deuce

    Awesome work so far... I'm definitely tuning in.

    Double Deuce crew cab

    That's what I was going to say. I haven't built one, but I have seen a semi-truck with a double sleeper (for lack of a better term) and it's on air bags.

    Deuce RV

    Just to be devils advocate, why not have the camper on the truck and pull a trailer for cargo capacity? :twisted: In all seriousness, I agree with you Wreckerman.

    ATTN Michiganders

    That's a bonus for taking military iron to the show. They'll normally get you up front somewhere, no matter what time it is.

    Xtreme 4X4 Deuce bobbed(Spike TV)

    That's one of my favorite things about these trucks.

    ATTN Michiganders

    I didn't see a CUCV out there, I had my solid green Deuce out at Knob Creek. Going towards the range, I was in the upper parking lot, way back on the right.

    Xtreme 4X4 Deuce bobbed(Spike TV)

    Ian, I think it's awesome that you pop in here to give us some insight on the truck. Whether I like the build or not, I can almost always take something useful away from one the projects. [thumbzup]

    Xtreme 4X4 Deuce bobbed(Spike TV)

    On the rear air bags, I was expecting longer bags as well. I figured they would be mounted so the truck would set the frame on the axle.

    Extra fuel

    If you weren't on the opposite end of Illinois, I'd take it.

    Xtreme 4X4 Deuce bobbed(Spike TV)

    I think we have a winner. That's the best answer IMO.

    Xtreme 4X4 Deuce bobbed(Spike TV)

    It's not Conservative 4x4, it's Xtreme 4x4! :twisted: I would think the stock air system would be taxed to keep up with air bags. It takes FOREVER (10-15 min?) as it is to fill up a tire. At that rate, just to fill up air bags is still going to take a bit.

    Extra fuel

    This is interesting as I was considering something around 100 gallons to put in the bed. How are you going to tie this tank in to the existing fuel system?

    Xtreme 4X4 Deuce bobbed(Spike TV)

    It IS called Xtreme 4x4, it's not going to be a "stock" bobber. I wouldn't build a bed like that, but I'm very interested to see how it works with their Sami(?) back there. Ultimately, that's what the goal is, to have viewers interested in the show.

    Ld465-1 turbo???

    My non-turbo is loud, but not as bad as a turbo truck. I think the only time my truck is lacking to a turbo truck is on acceleration. Otherwise, I can cruise at 55mph easily and keep it up slight inclines too. I want a turbo mostly for the sound.
