    Overhead Console

    Disregard below. I just looked and you have the other one... I installed one in my 5 ton, thread is HERE. I've definitely enjoyed mine, it wasn't too hard to install. Word of advice, the step bit that comes with it did not make it through drilling the hole for my camera. Use your own...

    Depending on where you are in Texas, I have a second tailgate that needs a little repair (and no pioneer tool rack) that I can give you. There is some rust along the bottom "pole hole" from rain, but I think that's the extent of it. I'll be in the Dallas area on the 17th.

    M56B1 questions

    Like my donor truck, the XM387. According to a gentleman who runs a website about the Redstone Missles, he informed me there were *very* few of them built.

    Sadly, it looks like it's missing a tailgate... those are almost worth the value of the truck... As far as the coil goes, is the replacement chrome or black? Chrome tend to be Chinese and npt last as long. Items to looks for before attempting to start: Check coolant/oil Check the freeze...

    Sourcing M35 Cargo Cover Kit

    Oh, if you have any type of accessories to your truck (I have spotlights etc) and want to keep your batteries hot without burning fuel, invest in one of these: It's a bit pricey, but it has saved my butt more than once. I modified mine to where I could "unplug" it and store it rather than...

    Sourcing M35 Cargo Cover Kit

    I use my 5 ton for camping, and has been mentioned, air circulation is a must to avoid condensation inside unless you have a good mosquito net/bug barrier. I also invested in an inflatable air mattress and made a "mosquito net" out of sheer curtains. $40.00 solar LED light kit from Amazon takes...
