    What modifications should I do for my 1009?

    Skinny has the skinny = reliability is everything. It is disheartening to see a lifted, monster-tired, turbo charged truck stuck someplace because it wont start or run right. Unless its one of those chrome-plated sissy trucks then thats hilarious 8<)

    correct rim to single my deuce????

    You could flip the rear hubs and use stock wheels. The rear wheels will have the same track as the front.

    Yes, preyn2, I saw that during the floods of '83 in Tucson: food was helo'd in to folks on the other side of a normally dry wash, flooded from recent rains. Next morning it was dry again. We panic easy.

    How good is a deuce really in the mud?

    I'm convinced a truck could have twelve wheel drive and still get stuck in mud. I drive around it.

    Run flats on a deuce?

    I thought the issue was getting the run flats OUT of the 395s. I instructed my tire vendor to leave them in.

    Deuce driver with gonads

    I wouldn't take a brand new car 1300 miles across several states with no tools or fluids. I have just as much "sense of adventure" as the next guy, been on several. Thats why I wouln't do it again. Being broke down alongside the highway is not an adventure, its a pain in the keester.

    Trucks On Michelin 14.00R20s

    Yes, bobbers are fine with those tires and even bigger. Distance between the centers of the rear axles is 48 inches, distance from the center of a 49 inch tire to the edge is 49/2 = 24 1/2 inches. Distance from the center of the other tire to its edge is also 24 1/2 inches. Add them together...

    going to look at a 1008

    A CUCV is like a horse : The animal , even if the aquisition cost is FREE, will cost you over time. Shoes, vet bills, medicine, feeders, waterers, corral maintenance. You can see the analogy.

    What 13K$ In LED Tail Lights Looks Like.

    Oh, the thermal image of the M35A2 in my avatar is taken in the 3-5 micron band. See how it shows that the bearing on the center axle is too tight (white = hot)

    What 13K$ In LED Tail Lights Looks Like.

    Look at the data sheet, guys, this camera operates in the 7-14 micron IR band. Its not the near IR band that a simple cheapo silicon sensor can see, nor is it the 3-5 micron band that many FLIR systems use. The 7-14 band is longwave, that is, it senses objects that are just warm, dont have to be...
