    Deuce Got a face Transplant!

    Hey Alex, Glad to see something is getting done down on 210. But I can't say to much I have been rather slow on my truck the past few weeks. The winch job looks great. Just keep working your way backwards until you reach the tail lights and the whole truck will look that good. Give me a call...

    PLS rims

    The brake drums on the M123 are 18" Dia. the same as a 5 ton which means a 20" wheel will work, the problem is finding the correct bolt pattern which is 13 1/4 as I have been thinking about ways of doing this myself. But I don't want to single out my truck I would like to keep it with the...

    10 Ton M125 Repaint

    Hey Jeff, I didn't think anything I did had any logic to it. I guess what I mean't to say was I was confused because there was so many different opinions about the correct 24087/24084. I was told by one that the 24084 came later in the 60's. Then I'm told by one that the 24087 that Rapco sell's...

    10 Ton M125 Repaint

    Primed and Painted - I went with the marine corp. 24052, some of you may disagree, but I was tired of screwing around with this 24087 color, just to many different shades. The version of it I got from Rapco was to brown for me. Jeff with Tactical Truck hooked me up with Randolph products, But it...

    10 Ton M125 Repaint

    I had one brake drum giving me trouble, so I made a drum removal tool and brought in some big muscle to turn the wrench. It took some doing but we got it off. Once again I have to say I'm glad I went this deep into this truck. I don't know what the deal is with this rear axle had some real...

    10 Ton M125 Repaint

    I know how I started this post with - taking the 10 ton down a little bit. Well the more I took off the more I wanted to keep going, until I decided, if I had done so much work on a 5 ton bridge truck so should I on a truck like this. So here I am and I'm glad I did, I found some serious brake...

    10 Ton M125 Repaint

    Decided to get into removing the cannon hitch assy. There was just to much rust in there and I wouldn't be able to clean and paint very well, so it had to come a part.
