    Thanks. Please do PM me about where to source parts, but let's post about everything else publicly. haha. No seriously, I bet there are a lot of people that would like to follow-along, and some of them will probably be able to add some valuable info along the way. Probably best to start a new...

    fail-proofing full hydro steering

    Unforgiven, I'm planning on upgrading to Hydro-Max brakes too. You want to work together on that? If you've already go the parts, I can help design mounts and stuff. Would like to start working on that, but don't have parts yet. So hit me up if you want/need any help.

    Deuce front lift blocks

    Depending on how the vehicle is lifted, raising/lowering the steering arms might make the bump-steer even worse. The drag-link doesn't need to be horizontal, as much as it needs to be parallel to the front half of the leafsprings, sort of like how track-bars and drag-link (on vehicles with...

    srodocker's "little" project

    Brad's an animal. Stopped-by late one night to pick up my M103A3 trailer, and had brought my own tires/wheels so he could keep the brand new NDT's to sell to someone else. Was cold and raining. Had to literally fight the guy off so I could change the wheels/tires myself. He's just so **** helpful.

    fail-proofing full hydro steering

    I'm confused. Who's the kid? I'm going to be using the gear-driven 5-ton PS pump that's already on my new LDS engine. Nevermind, carry-on. For all the back-and-forth banter, there's some helpful info in there. Somewhere. Thanks for posting everybody.

    fail-proofing full hydro steering

    Just re-read what mxrider posted, and am still not sure what he meant. Was giving him the benefit of the doubt.

    No, we're all talking about the same thing. Thanks. Love hearing about other applications that have creative steering arrangements. Anybody have any pics?

    Deuce front lift blocks

    Lift blocks should NEVER NEVER NEVER be used on front axles. Ever.

    395's and hubs on my Deuce ! What I think about the upgrade.

    Ideally, I'd like to get measurements for the front and rear so that I can design shockmounts for all three axles (with integrated axle chain-up hooks), but anything you can help me with would be much appreciated. Will just explain what measurements would be helpful and you can take it from...

    395's and hubs on my Deuce ! What I think about the upgrade.

    Hey Scott, if by any chance you ever forklift your truck like that again, I'd love to know how far their of the back axles is able to drop away from the frame. Want to design some shockmounts for mah deuce, but it's not drivable.

    Instrument panel mods

    Was planning on making a custom gauge panel, but looks like the A3 is already set-up to accommodate an extra gauge? Good to know.

    Swing away tire carier?

    The best swing-away tire carrier I've ever come across, OEM or aftermarket, was... on an H2. They're beefy, don't wiggle or rattle at all, they're already set-up for a 35" 8-lug wheel/tire, and they're easy to adapt to any custom bumper (plus the mounting points have integral recovery shackles).
