    Alternative radio mount solutions for m35a2

    Very slick design. When I build a guntruck in the future I will def mount it in the bed of the truck.

    Thank you fpchief. I just keep plugging away when I have the time and break it up into parts. If I had a shop I could get alot more done but we all work with what we have.

    My 1971 Am General m109a3 RV build

    After all the interior work I started working on the outside. Got the mushroom cleaned up and primed and painted it and got it placed on the snorkel. Got a 90 degree 4" elbow from Napa and boom, a cheap but affordable snorkel tube. Just to keep rain and snow out of the intake. Then I started...

    I applied multiple light coats because the weather in northern pa has not been the most cooperative. After painting dad and I took the seats apart and installed Monroe shocks. The orginial Gabriel ones were completely bad. These fit in with some elbow grease and slight grinding on the edge...

    More has been completed on the rv build. I finished priming the cab and applied bedliner to the floor and to the inside doors. I then painted everything in lusterless marine corps forest green. Hands down my fav od green shade.

    Alternative radio mount solutions for m35a2

    If that's true then I could cut it down to fit the rt524. I'll get some measurements and find out how much space before buying anything.

    Alternative radio mount solutions for m35a2

    I was thinking about buying one of the hmmwv rt524 mounts and then adding some support brackets and see if I could get it to work.

    Alternative radio mount solutions for m35a2

    I was planning on doing a 2 tier radio mount. First one for the Vic 1 and 2nd one for the rt-524. Thought it would be nice to keep it off the ground. I guess if dirt gets in then I'll have to clean it more often. Just trying to look at some alternative methods because I'm running the spring...

    Alternative radio mount solutions for m35a2

    Im wondering if anyone has mounted the radio in an alternative location other than under the seat on the passenger side of the m35a2. I have two spring seats in my m109a3 and I would like to mount a rt524 between the seats if possible. I'm considering building a mount but wonder if the 939...

    Thank you for the feedback Peashooter. I was reading about your build and the ground faults and the rust is def something I want to address first. Save me time later on.

    I then removed the seats today from the cab of the truck. Those are heavier then I suspected. I ordered new monroe 66104 shocks for the seats because they were both worn out. I then went to town all day sanding and Cleaning and priming. I got the whole cab cleaned and primed today. Plan is to...

    Made some great progress in the last few days. Power cable is made and using the original large 2 prong 60amp cord for 110v. Installed all LEDs in interior lights as well as the 2-24volt lights with leds. Whole box inside is LEDs. I also purchased a new air filter from power driven diesel...

    My 1971 Am General m109a3 RV build

    Wow. Thank you very much. I was planning on running an inside air conditioning unit. I don't like the air conditioners on the outside and the rear exhaust vent is a great place for that. I would need to drill a hole for the vent line. And my plan is I wouldn't be having the air...

    My 1971 Am General m109a3 RV build

    Today I didn't get to do much working on the truck. I removed the driverside Jerry can holder. I am not going to use it and it gets in the way. The 24 volt system works but need a new circuit breaker on the outside of the box. Bought a new one and should be here end of the week. The truck...

    I want a fridge, microwave and air fryer. Plus ac/heat. Then a tv & DVD player. Trying to keep it simple but comfy.

    Right I haven't figured out all the details yet. I was wondering about securing the appliances myself. I just want the items to be secured safely.

    Yeah I have read multiple guys builds where the box needed to be gutted and started new. I'm trying to avoid that at all costs.
