The Golight came back from repair, so I put it back on. It was in use for about 15 minutes combined when it stopped working. The repairman said it had a bad motor. So, I'm hoping it has a good motor now. I was primarily influenced to buy it by the light's claimed ability to be synchronized onto...
Here's a little more detail on the ladder, in case someone would like to make it. The top with the hooks is cut from 1\2" plates with a steel ladder rung sandwiched between. Sides are 1/4" strap.
Here is a shot of the switch panel I put in to control the 12v power from that converter. Also the go light controller that will hopefully simultaneously control 2 lights. Having a time with the lights, had to send one of them back. I hope that they will end up lasting a while despite their...
Just wanted to share some things I've added and will be adding to my truck. This is my first attempt at uploading pictures so I might have to do some experimenting. This M35A3 was purchased from C&C Surplus, it is a 1995 with 13k miles on the odometer. My plan is to make it into a welding truck...
Maybe this will help you decide. If you buy it and find you don't like it, I would be willing to buy it from you for a tiny fraction of what you originally paid. On a more serious note: With proper maintenance and preparation for cold weather sounds like this truck will do well for you. I have...

Here's a site that has one of those listed. I buy the CARC substitute paint from them. Matches perfectly.

Good morning. Spent the last couple of days making repairs and adjustments to the new truck. Hope to get some advise on the latest problem. I found and air leak in the line going to the winch control. If this picture worked there is an arrow pointing at the top of a plastic tee. That is the...
I am about 45 mins from the Springs. And, I will be in my garage all day. If you find yourself in need and I may be able to help out, call me up. I will pm my number.
I have made my living welding. Over the two decades doing so, have used most every type and brand of welder. Its my opinion that the Hobart will do a fine job for you. However, if you can afford to jump up to the 220v, I guarantee that you will be happy you did someday. As you get good at it you...
Greetings fellow MV enthusiasts. I am happy to join your informative forum, and look forward to getting to know the lot of you. I have owned a CUCV for some time, and recently acquired the long awaited Deuce. Have much to learn about them both. The only things I claim to be good at are welding...
