    Where can I find....

    Are the flanged nuts on a HEMTT rims, lock nuts or just a standard flanged nut?

    Front axle flange modification

    Doesn't the bolt on, splined axle cap help support the outer, short side of the axle shaft?

    Not really a limit experience

    Man, would that be fun.....just wouldn't want the hassle of checking all the bearings and seals on that thing afterwards.

    Anybody ever use railroad to get GL buy home

    Shipping trucks, on an open rail car, I'd be worried about vandalism and theft of components.

    Bigler boyz bobbed deuce

    You do very nice work, a true craftsman with an old MV. I'd be proud to drive that one anywhere. It doesn't look like you take any short cuts in your work, to just sell a truck for a quick profit <example:> you actually take the time to flip the rear hubs, so the rear tires track properly with...

    Lifting a Bobbed Deuce

    Same principle would apply. Just bigger and heavier, build it accordingly.

    Lifting a Bobbed Deuce

    It stops fine, with the 53's. No complaints with the way that it stops, other that the single cylinder, master cylinder. Every Deuce owner has that complaint though:( I do have all new brakes on the truck, so one with worn brakes, and that are also out of adjustment, would be a different story...

    gutted 5 ton front housing

    If it was me, I'd cut the center differential part completely out. Then weld in a new piece material, of the same size and thickness as the existing axle tubing in it's place. Axle housings are narrowed and widened everyday, and as for strength/integrity this would be no different. It would...

    M551 Sheridan

    I didn't want to clog up your thread on your M551. So I posted some pictures that I found, from when my father served in the military, in another thread. There's not a lot of pictures, but they are mostly of the M551 Sheridan that he operated on...

    Armor pictures from '68-'69

    We went to my parents place last night to meet up with the rest of the family for Christmas. While there I came across some of his pictures from when he served in the military. He was in the armored division with the 82nd Airborn ('68-70) with the M551 Sheridan. I figured I'd post the pictures...

    M551 Sheridan

    I just ran across this thread. Interesting.... My father was in the 82nd Airborn (67-70?) and was the driver for the M551 Sheridan. I think he said they were still experimental then. I seem to recall him saying that they could be air dropped and also had skirting that could put up, so that...

    Your truck looks great. It'll stand out in a crowd. Fixed your bumper for you...

    slober tube plumbed back into intake?

    I'd route it into the exhaust pipe. I've welded many attachment-tubes to header collectors for guys over the years to eliminate their PVC system on high RPM V8 motors. Google "crankcase evacuation system" It'll work the same for you, with your smokey Multi. The rank fumes will go up the stack...

    Lifting a Bobbed Deuce

    No, not a print. When I drew it, I laid it out on heavy card stock and cut out the shape. Then traced it on the 3/8" plate, and sheared it on the lines.
