I've seen them go for a lot less. You have to watch those trucks with the nice new paint jobs from Wisconsin. I'm sure they are from Oshkosh Equipment Sales in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. Not that they don't sell nice trucks, but they seem to be on the high side and the camo patterns look more than a...

Hmmm, I wonder how I missed this thread. I have used several of the Motorola Talkabout series FRS/GMRS radios with assorted mics while playing Airsoft. PTT is about the only way to go, since most of the boom mics will pic up heavy breathing unless you turn the sensitivity way down, then you...

Hmmmm... Lets see, your spotter has been neck deep in M715s for 10 years. Hmmm, in PA, I'd bet. If it's who I think it is, that's exactly who I would want along too. I learned a heck of a lot from him in the hour or two I spent with him. A really nice guy who knows his stuff inside and out...

Jc Whitney sells the ones made to mount to a vertical panel. You have to be careful with using the ones made for a CJ. They are not really long enough to make the 90 degree bend and still work right. I believe the ones on the Deuce are the same as the ones on my M-715. I have one original...

I believe they make you strip off all sponsor and manufacturer decals before you can be allowed in the competition, so advertising is out.

Spicer posted up a Paypal address at the Zone for this. I'd post it up, but I'll leave it up to him. Also, Jon (Brute4c) at the Zone has set up some impromptu auctions for Spicer. Basically Zone members donate items (for free) up for sale and other members are bidding on them with all the...

An armored Superduty, nice. Here's a few pics for those who don't have a password or don't want to get around all the BS security on the Lenco site: Kinda silly to restrict the access to images when the thing has been put on public display all over the place...

That's interesting, but I have to ask. What sort of radio station give away a military truck as a prize? Country station? :p Angry militant radio? [complaining] Just curious... [^]

Perhaps we could merge this info with the map, eh?

Ack! Sacrilege! :freaked: Put a Cummins in it if nothing else. Got to keep it Mopar! [:)]

This is something I have been looking into for my 715 as well. I drive like a dang fool, so a seatbelt is a good idea for me. I'm sort of partial to my face, ribs and other breakables above the waist so I'm thinking of a 3 point belt. Since most factory 3 point belts mount to a pilliar above...

I may not be much use since I haven't fooled with anythingas big as a Deuce yet, but I have been a mechanic and fabricator for more than a few years, and I have friends in weird places to help out. At any rate, don't hesitate to call me if you are in the area and need help, or are coming my way...

There is a Deuce here in town that has a dump bed on it, but I haven't gotten to look at it close to see if it was a swapped on civilian bed or an original, or just something made out of spare parts. I'll try and get a close look at it sometime, but the guy works shift work, so he's hard to...

One of the most common problems I see with winching or winches in general is the condition of the cable, and the lack of maintenence put into the cable. I am constantly horrified by frayed, crushed, and corroded cable even on commercial towing rigs. Any cable that has damage to it should be...

The Mopar stuff was priced at around $5 a can, I think. It's priced by the individual dealer, since Mopar lets the dealers do their own markup, but I think the list price was in the $5-6 range, but that was back in '95-96. Honestly, I'd give more than that for it, since it does such a good...

Kenny, Mopar sells the same stuff under the name, Heat Control Valve Solvent. Nice stuff, you can actually watch it foam up and turn black as it eats rust and corrosion. Originally it was made to loosen the valve in the exhaust manifolds of older carburated engines, but it works wonders on...

I seem to remember some deuce antics on "First Blood", the first of the "Rambo" series. Also, how different are the transfer cases and PTO setups on the 2.5 tons and the 5 tons? The only hydraulic setup I can remember seeing pics or info on was for a 900 series 5 ton, so maybe that might be a...

They should all have them I think. I know the S-250s are tied down to the bed of M37s and M715s with the same slings and attachment points that are used to lift them. I've found several places that have the shelters, but they vary wildly in condition. Some have the hold for the A/C unit made...

That is really nice. I'm dying to get a S-250 shelter for my 715. I think it'll make a nice little camper for me and my gear. Not much more than a hard shelled tent, but at least I don't have to put it together, lol. Plus a shelter has to be cheaper than trying to buy the troop seats, bows...

Hmmm, that's interesting. Perhaps the shops are still painting them semi-gloss since it seems to last longer than the flat paints?
