.79 to 1 stock is excellent then. I'm thinking I have read a bunch of incorrect numbers posted from other's memories in several different posts over the last few months.

I too read somewhere that there was a .78 overdrive version of the 3053 instead of the common .85. Maybe the were used in school buses or something?

Check out "The Monster" from the same seller - rated for 150,000 lbs and can be made to any length. Does he combine items for shipping if you buy more than one?

Yeah congrats - looks great. I went to our local parade last Saturday to take pictures of my dad playing Santa on a horse drawn carriage, he did a good job and the kids seemed to love him. They had a couple of fire trucks, the carriages and a few pick-ups towing float trailers. I couldn't stop...

Ether + flame heater = boom?

I like crane's idea of selecting tires that are good (as possible) on wet pavement and having chains available for the more extreme stuff. It's like dressing in layers for the outdoors - keeps all your bases covered.

Could there be differences in the front end alignment between each of those trucks? I think we need a picture of a pickup pulling a Deuce...

We won't tell your wife that you are already planning on picking up more deuces. :)

The mirror idea is a great one. I was thinking of something similar for the back of the truck so you could see to align trailer to hitch. Maybe just another mount or magnets and you could use the same mirror for both.

I think you will hurt your back. Looks cool though.

I like look of trailers behind the Duece! Was that Recovery's trailer then, or did it just end up in his yard?

Not by much. :D

I can't see any chance of carbon monoxide poisoning from heaters using hot water for heat. :roll:

No I don't unfortunately, plus I don't have any military vehicles at the moment. :?

Good luck Jimbo - it's a good cause. I live in the Salt Lake City area... There were a few ceremonies around town but I didn't hear of any parades.
