    2011 - PNW Mini Rally 5 - Bridging Truck Recovery

    Hmm, I'll have to check my schedule. What's the width on that beast? Just wondering if there's going to be any overwidth issues with the LEO's.

    M-109A3 buying questions

    As mentioned the van box is notorious for leaks. Definately try and get topside to see if you have any cancer to deal with. The leaks and the biggest issues with these van boxes. Check the molding along the wall/floor joint for rust spots and dry rotted boards along the edge. That'll be your...

    XXX on the WET side this past weekend.

    Sorry man, would have made it up but it was on Sunday. When I'm not working that's the day I give to the BIG GUY UPSTAIRS. That is one great looking bridge truck!!! I've seen that beast on CL a few times here and there.

    wiper motor trouble

    I have replaced all my plastic wiper motors with the metal ones. The metals ones are much easier to rebuild and maintain. The drawback in the plastic units are the O-rings. Many times guys put air tool oil or somekind of oil in the plastic motors thinking it'll help. But it only causes more...

    Yesterdays deuce issues questions

    Just curious, does your truck have a Sprag? I had issues similiar to #2. In fact the truck would completely stop even under full throttle. Shift in reverse then back in first then I would be good. Turned out my situation was a bad Sprag.

    M109 Power Cable

    No offense taken:mrgreen:. I guess my point is to just keep your eyes open and search. I literally searched at least once every 3-4 days on ebay before I found her. There was no way I was going to pay the $150-200 for just the plug itself and another 100 or so on the cable. Well, I suppose I...

    M109 Power Cable

    I noticed there are a few variations of plugs used on the 109. Two prong, three prong, and a four prong plug. The majority I have seen are the two prong ones. I was lucky to find one on ebay after a 2 year search. Luckily the guy didn't know what he had and I ended up winning a 50 ft cord...

    Project Off-Grid M109A3 w/w log

    I thought about mounting them towards the front portion of the fender and opted not to. I figured I'd trip over them for sure. I also looked at the cab and opted not to drill any more holes than I needed to. I also thought having the illumination so close to the driver might interfere with...

    What did the AH1 Cobras on GSA go for?

    I was eyeballing those as well. Only 40 miles from my house. When they hit 15k I quit looking

    Project Off-Grid M109A3 w/w log

    Here's some more pics on the handles;-) Time to chalk up another project Scott...haha Ooops, just noticed the primer red in the pics:-? I suppose I need to paint them. I went with the later chassis handles because they have that nice angle to them and actually brings them about 3 inches closer...

    Project Off-Grid M109A3 w/w log

    I got off my lazy adipose and snapped some pics of the Auroras. I had the hardest time trying to figure out where to mount these lights. Didn't want to under the bumper (ripped off by the first incline), didn't want to do bumper tops (trip hazard), front of bumper (smashed with first contact...

    Project Off-Grid M109A3 w/w log

    OK here's the latest I've done. I finally replaced the dry rotted oak flooring with replacement oak. I finally got around to bolting in the 900 series battery relocation box. I plan on running 4 batteries in a 24v configuration (M818 style). The rear slave will allow for charging the battery...

    Project Off-Grid M109A3 w/w log

    Hey guys thanks for the compliments. My project has once again hit another bump in the road. The funds I had saved up for the van got spent on a new home built computer. My previous computer of 8 years blew a gasket in DEC 2009. After putting the computer off for 15 month it was time. I haven't...

    VIC-1 Install

    Should you decide to buy one, it is a GRC based power cord rather than a VRC based one.
