    Dodge fenders....

    That's got to be a typo. $18 I could understand but not $8 for something that large. He could just be cutting someone a deal on the shipping. The fender itself is not worth anywhere near $190 though. I'm not quite sure why that fender only fits '77-'80 though unless it's got the holes...

    Finding User Names

    There is one shortcut you can use if you know the first few letters of the person's username. Go to search, forum only. Leave the Keyword search area blank. Put in the first few letters of the person's name followed by a * in the Search for Author's area. Then click at the bottom to display...

    Differential question.

    If I understand it right, the lockers are either a Detroit Locker or similar design. They lock when torque is applied through the driveshaft and unlock when coasting.

    Differential question.

    Yes, a locker will have more play that a standard diff. It sounds like you might have swapped out a good locked diff. I probabaly would have done the same without thinking about it though, lol.

    How do you say it?

    Yes, General George S. Patton did have a bull terrier named Willie.

    Snow Tires + Speed vs. Tire size?

    Good snow tires should have a tight tread pattern with a lot of horizontal grooves to grip the snow. Mud tires do not make good snow tires as they are designed to "clean" and you actually want to load up the tread with snow if possible since snow sticks to snow a lot better than rubber does. I...

    Siren and Light Controls in MP CUCV

    12voltguy will do whatever custom labels or engraving you want. He does all kinds of custom panels from show worthy to heavy duty waterproof panels that get beat on regularly. He's a good guy from his posts on Pirate and everyone loves his work and products.

    updated pics of my hemtt restoration

    Good point. Google images comes up with lots of nice pics if you search "Mk19 grenade launcher" that you can use for reference. Here is also some good info and pics: http://world.guns.ru/grenade/gl19-e.htm

    looking for plastic model manufacturer comparos -

    Good post. I'm rather curious about this myself as I've thought about getting back into doing a few models. I used to do them years ago but they were mostly Mopar muscle cars and since I can't afford a HEMTT, I figure a scale model of one would be nice to have and fun to build. It sort of...

    Winch

    I agree with the statements that no electric winch will work as well as the Deuce PTO winch however, I would trust a Ramsey winch like that over any other kind of electric winch and will agree that they are no slouch either. Most of the reputation that electric winches have is from planetary...

    who is bidding

    Actually, I'm sure what you are describing would be considered bid fixing, especially by the auction company. Just because "it's between friends" does not make it legal.

    No worries about offending anyone. I take it you are referring to the "Who's Bidding" post. We were just trying to keep you out of trouble. We have a GL representative here on the board and it wouldn't surprise me if a few more were under cover. I also wouldn't be surprised if a few US...

    That brings up a good point, Maddawg1, you need to put your location in your profile so that it shows up under your avatar. It is a requirement of this forum.

    who is bidding

    Re: RE: who is bidding I think we do, the problem is that everyone just skips to the bottom and clicks "I agree". And DM22630, I wasn't railroading you but based on your comment: I think my response was fair and to the point.

    who is bidding

    RE: Re: RE: who is bidding The site sponsor has nothing to do with it and you should be ashamed for suggesting it. Voicing weather or not you are going to bid in an auction is collusion or "bid rigging" and yes, it is against the law. I don't see anything wrong with Chris wanting to cover his...

    M1008 Diesel Gas Cap - Want Locking Gas Cap

    Here is the mods to my Ramcharger's fuel door. It's a simple key lock off of a paddle latch I had laying around. You can get similar locks from McMaster.com for next to nothing. Since they don't use the few keys that gas caps do, which all lock pick kits have a master pick for gas caps also...
