    MRAP Seats in a deuce or 5 ton?

    Like Bigboy44 said It seems to me if you could gain some more room with those seat verses the stock ones the demand would be greater. A friend of mine and a fellow SS was amazed with the room in my 5ton with stock seats in it. He said the deuce had even less room behind the wheel. Until then I...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Last week I put in a 24 t0 12 converter. I didn't put in a cut off switch and it killed my batteries by Wednesday. Lesson learned so I cut the line and started installing a toggle but ran out of time . Today if the weather holds up I will finish what I started. I want to finish and install the...

    Another hard start

    When you decide to have the starter rebuilt try Richburgs Electric on east Palmeto street in Florence, He is the only guy I trust to do a good job anymore locally.

    Getting more and more interested in adding turbo to 1008

    That is a really cool project and I wish you luck with it just keep us posted on the progress. As a side note just be careful of how much money you sink into it because you may find if or when you go to sell it you will never recoup your money from it. Ask me how I know :)

    MARINE CORPS LEAGUE HICKORY AUTOFAIR

    The Marine Corps parade in my town was canceled due to the cost of the men and machines involved but mainly to the cost of liability insurance . What is the world coming to when the armed forces can't even have a parade . Is this why the car show was canceled ?
