Might as well just ditch the bed, put a 105A2 bed on, make a giant "sleeper-barn" on the back with the metal and be done with it.
Hotel rooms? Not any more! Just need an outlet to plug my mobile barn into.
You could design your own ROPS, and build a modified Frankencab. I have considered this option. I have even seen extended cabs that went with a Frankencab like top. It looked pretty cool once you hid it with a roof rack and lights.
Come on guys, that looks like 3/16!
I think what they are saying is, "Good idea, but beef it up!"
74M35A3 has an idea that is really good. You might look at his thread, or search his name for pictures.
That's awfully big for a Grizz! I'm betting Brown Bear (semantics, I know) Grizz, Brown, Kodiak all the same, just different names based on where they live. I'm betting that was taken on the coast of Alaska somewhere?
You still dont want to get between a mamma Brogrizziak with her cute little...
What? I thought everyone had a 2x4 that happened to fit perfectly between the fully depressed accelerator and the dashboard?
I mean, I don't, but lots of people do. :)
I bought mine, sight unseen from a fellow SS in Idaho. I flew up and drove it to Dallas. I feel your pain, I found I drive...
about a month ago GL auctioned off a bunch of these in one lot. I should have bought them.
The bolt pattern looks as if it would fit the warn 18 Industrial. I just got through drilling the 8 holes for the back/bottom of this winch in my new bumper project.
If the buyer of these items happens...
Just when I thought the list of things I "needed" was about full, this thread comes along.
Ironically, yesterday I was thinking to my self if this was even a possibility. Said "No, self, it's not possible, within reason, let it go."
Im not sure if I'm happy, or scared that this looks to be...
forget the console, I have barn envy!
Nice console too. Did you build or buy? I built one for mine. Well, I'm in the process. The difficult part is done. The framing, how I wanted it to go is done. Yours looks very nice.
What I did to my 5-ton today: I Looked at the odometer and realized that I have put 6000 miles on this truck in the 12 months since I bought it! This is the very first 5-ton I have owned. The beginning of the fever.
I Started the new winch bumper. Drilled all the holes in a 53" long 8" x 1/2"...
Novacaine, well, at least it is their fault when they hit you.
I have found that human nature is to avoid a collision at all costs. I am polite (mostly) on the road. When I am pulling a long or heavy load, I think ahead, but sometimes, you can't predict everything. I have found about 1/2 the...
The alt and compressor have about 180 degrees of contact with this routing method. Pulls against the newly indexed tensioner in a straight line. The tensioner wasn't indexed to this position, it was indixed to about the 6:00 position, and pulled up to 8:00 position with tension.
I don't know the length of the belt, I ordered the belt that 74M35 had in the photos of his instructions. I did route the belt differently than instructed. It gives more bearing surface on the alt and compressor.
Around alt, back in to tensioner, back out to compressor it fits and gives a good...
