Gotta tell u guys, dont have the opportunity to do that type of thing up in the northern woods of Idaho. But, just thinking of you all carrying the torch of freedom makes my heart sing a warriors song of steel mirth. Not all American males can lead lives of castrated complacency. God Bless you...

m16ty, you fit in jus fine in my neck of the woods. i only have ten acres, but the rest sounds the same. some people complain about all the shooting, but they end up moving away and the good ole boys remain. gene

appnut 1, welcome to family. your neighbor may never see the light, but we all here know how you feel. BFR, what kind of noise reduction did you get with the muffler adaptation? Gene

Recently a fellow, who seems to be the type to know a bit about the winches we are talking about, told me that cheep grade 5 bolts can be used in leu of the correct shear pin. Is this wise? Has anyone done this and tested such a "modification?" thanks, Gene

thanks for the pics oifvet. figure I will give wildwood a call tomorrow. gonna hook up the new set up once I redo the wheel cylinders, brake shoes, and air pack and replace old brake fluid. winter will be long but the shop wood stove will be stoked and the deuce will get needed TLC...

Despite the raised eyebrow or two that may result from this question, I must ask. What parts of the deuces electrical system would be rendered inoperable by EMP? Yes, I realize that one would not need to worry should one be to close to the "event." Spare parts in a Faraday box might be a good...

Thanks Readyman/Bjorn. I know us new guys seem to have an unending list of simple questions but have patience. We appreciate the help and hope some day to pass on the torch of knowledge when we may.

Bjorn, insofar as the setup of the oil filter for the crankcase breather hose am I correct in surmising that the hose feeds into a verticle oil filter set up with a drain stopcock at the bottom for periodic removal. Could you post a pic on this thread of your setup? Gene

Thanks Bjorn for the post. Have not started my fording project yet but your last post will give me a starting point. From there I will let on the job experience be my guide. Gene

My personal experience with Mike and OD iron echos the sentiments above. Very stead fast, courteous service. Thanks Mike. and Mangus, from the deep woods of Northern Idaho. Gene

Suppose I could have just PM'd the thanks to Robert for the wrench I just got for my compressor but, Nahhhh. Have seen prev threads indicating that there are people who want to work on their compressors with other more mundane tools. IMHO, good on you all for your intestinal fortitude, but hey...

That's one nice rig Jeff. Sharp!!

Just read your post Ryan. Thanks as well.

Bjorn, Freight Train, Thanks for the additional information. This thread should get me started. I will try to only PM you guys when I hit the brick wall. Your right, many things are self evident once you dive in and get started. Appreciate the specification of copper tubing along the frame and...

thanks Kenny

Thanks all for the info. Ditto Lax. A part list would be great. Gonna search some more and IF I get some more good info I will be sure and post.

Was reading the thread about Dennis in Shelby helping out. First things first. Great photos Dennis! Thanks for being the kind of individual who takes action. [thumbzup] I apologize if this has been covered already but I gotta ask. With respect to plumbing my own rig for deep water ops do you...

I stand corrected on the military refurbishment. Boyce dont do that. They do have a lot of stuff though.

I've been dealing with a company in Ogden Utah named Boyce Trucking equipment and parts. the guy on the other end of the phone is Brett. Phone number 1.801.393.0007 I've ordered things from tandem axil bracket to air packs to steering gears and more. So far no problems. The company apparently...
