    Great thread. Looks straight forward! Any photos of permanent mount? Does it adjust with your trailer brake unit? Gain?

    DAF-YA-126 Recovery

    Can a local shop make one? Can it be 3D Printed? Can you fit another master cylinder? Just throwing ideas out! My rear wheel is leaking and I have no pressure now. Next months project.

    Brake Upgrade Options

    The goat is a diesel. You would need a hydraboost. Or you could do air over hydraulic. The space under dash is a challenge.

    CUCV 383 Green Paint

    Behr Paint Jobs- Show me your MV's

    Satin was just as hard after cure time. My trucks sit outside. If I get 10 years I will just respray. The Behr Premium Ultra has a primer mixed in. It only takes two days for two coats after the prep is done.

    Behr Paint Jobs- Show me your MV's

    When it comes to cost, Behr wins hands down! Easy clean up, Easy application, Easy touch up. No shipping, Only downside is the 30 day cure! I can live with that. I get tons of compliments! Will be starting on vehicle number seven in a couple of weeks.

    CUCV 383 Green Paint

    I used 1 gallon green. 2 coats and a couple of areas have 3. I picked up for 3 color camo but my daughter likes the green. I mark out the design with chalk and use the same sprayer. Practice on cardboard and it works great. Soft edges like the original. Pretty flat! Looks like carc. I have...
