Krylon camo green?

Many thanks Don, I'm checking out that site right now.

Thanks guys. Yah, my concern is only operating b/w the two radios for emergency use only. We've gotten way too much in the way of flooding around here and wierd weather. I went to the FCC site for amateur radio licensing and all that. I really didn't find any info on testing or where to go to...

Yah I know there are a ton of variables out there. I just wanted a comparison b/w the ranges of the different radio setups with the same terrain and outside conditions. My plans are to buy two of the same radios and install them in 2 or 3 of my deuces. So basically just knowing the PRC-77 to...

Fill your tank and treat with diesel Kleen

Wow, just waiting for the smoke to clear in here.:roll:

Congrats. What did the OK truck go for?

No one has any answers on the range in miles??

Ok, the receiver is the same equipment that is being transmitted. From deuce to deuce with like equipment from the same line of sight in the same terrain etc.

I am looking at outfitting one or two of my deuces with a military radio set up. I have been getting all kinds of opinions on what the ranges are on different radio setups. Does anyone have any factual info on the different radio setups w/regard to ranges or real life info. I know range will be...

Yah that was brianrbull who had those kits. I doubt if there are anymore at that price

No they were not new deuce motors. They were all take outs to be rebuilt. They were all in wooden crates filled with rat nests and God only knows what else. I went down to view them and they were all garbage. They were located in OR.

got pics?

I have been mulling around with the idea of installing some military radio sets in my deuces. I have pretty much narrowed it down to an RT-524/R-442 combo. I know several SS out there have some nice installations that they would like to show off. So, my request is to show (pics) what you got...

A scrap metal dealer I go to for parts had triwalls full of FMTV parts. Apparently several metal components just aren't upto Military standards that the govt had to spend millions re-updating these trucks. Several triwalls were full of door hinges. Seems the doors would just fall off b/c hinges...

Not sure if these videos have been posted or not. Here are gov't videos highlighting the new FMTV w/contrasts to our deuces. I don't care what they say, I would still take the deuce over a FMTV anyday. It is a two part video series. Enjoy

Wheel bearing sockets can be had at NAPA. You'll need a 3" 8 sided one

I think we'll make a believer out of him yet:wink:

I hear ya Gimp, MV are just like those dang potato chips. You can't just have one....

JoeD, experience can only arise by being around them. Lets put it this way, my experience was with watercooled VW's before I took the plunge into MV's. I got my first deuce in AUG08. Since that time I have owned 5!!! Just do it, you'll learn along the way and definately from the experts in...
