Here are some photos from the weekend's Petit Jean rally here in Arkansas. A few guys from here were there as well so hopefully they will post up any pics they may have as well. It was good turn out. Looks as though maybe next year we will beat out the trailer queening jeeps :twisted:

Well I figured I would share some pictures from last nights parade. Luckily the rain held out for the parade. Unfortunately I didn't get to prep the deuce the way I wanted because it had rained for the majority of the day. It was our first parade but not our last. There were 2 other Mvs that...
I've been looking for some canvas shift boots for my transmission and transfer case. I've found some here and there but usually not what I'm wanting to pay. I came up with the idea of making my own since I have some fabric left over from redoing my seats. That way they will match. Is there...
I'm entering my deuce into the Saline County Fair Parade on Sept 7th. I was wondering if any one in the Benton or Little Rock area was interested in entering as well. The deadline for sending in the entry form is Aug 31st. Feel free to shoot me a PM and I can email you the form.
I bought a really cool sign from pistonring. I finally got around to putting it up and taking some pictures so I figured I would share them with the group. :) It's a deuce only parking zone (at the moment) in my front yard and any violators will be crushed. Oh yeah, pay no attention to the...
I just scheduled picking up my deuce at RRAD tomorrow at 9 am. It seems like the EUC took forever. Anyone else going to Hooks tomorrow? I was also wondering if any one has any tips about going there since this is my first time. I'm hoping this will go good with little to no problems. This...
I'm currently coordinating with the Little Rock AFB Air Show coordinator to let us display our MVs during the Air Show on Oct 9 & 10. They are really excited and would love to have some of our MVs on display. I'm currently looking for a rough estimate of who is interested in doing it. I'll be...
Ok.... I was working on my front axles last week and going by what I've seen posted on here, well I got to where I undo the torque rod from the knuckle. Well I knew not to booger up the threads and I thought I didn't but I guess they are a little messy b/c when I went to put the castle nut...
I'm currently working on developing a database chock full of deuce parts w/ NSN, places to purchase and prices. I'm going to make it to where you could search by vendor, part desc, NSN, or vendor part #. It will be free for anyone to download and use once it's developed. You will also be able...
If anyone in AR is interested I found someone to buy used 55 gal plastic and metal barrels from along with 300 gal plastic totes. He charges $10 for the barrels and $65 for the totes. Not bad really. Most have had 15w 30 oil in them anyways. I know the barrels I got had about 1 or 2 gals...
Just a little FYI... I'll be in Memphis, TN on March 15th to the 19th, then April 12th to the 16th, and then April 26th to the 30th. So if any one needs me to relay some parts or even pick something up at Memphis Equipment just let me know and I'll see what I can do.
I was surfing the net and came across this site that gives air show schedules along with the Blue Angels and Thunderbirds schedule. I figured that this may be helpful for some of you out there.

The event is Paron Mayfest in Paron, AR on Saturday, May 8th. I am coordinating with the event staff and they can accommodate up to 10 vehicles to be there on display. This is a really great family event. They will have the Arkansas Game & Fish aquarium, rabbit show, pony rides, kids...
Well I'm going to schedule a recon mission at Camp Robinson for either next week or the first week in March. If anyone needs some intel or something picked up let me know. Also if anyone wants to tag along to poke around with me, you would be more than welcomed to. I like going out there...
I do a lot of window shopping, mainly because it doesn't cost me anything, but I also do it for research and in case I need something. I was curious to see if there was a way to do the sticky thing for classifieds like we do in the rest of the forums, that way if you see something you may want...
I was told about a really cool off road park in Missouri. It's called Brick's. Here is the website : Bricks Offroad Park
I was thinking we could have a really fun Play Day weekend there some time in the Spring.... maybe April or early May before it gets really hot. I was wondering who would...
The Arkansas Military Motor Pool Club will be having a meeting on January 16th, 2010 at 1 pm. Exact location is still TBD. It will probably be in Ash Flat Arkansas. Anyone is welcomed to come check it out. We will be discussing and planning up coming events such as play days, maintenance...
Well I found out today that there is an ORV Park fairly close to me in Hot Springs. I never knew that. I checked out their website and it looks like we could have some fun there. I want all the Arkansas folks along with anyone else who would be interested in attending an Arkansas event to...
I'm having a Toy Convoy from the Walmart in Bryant, AR to Toy Hill in Little Rock on Dec 5. We will be leaving at noon. I encourage everyone to come. You don't have to be in your MV. Just bring a new unwrapped toy to donate.
I know I can buy the kits for weather stripping around my windows and doors. I was wondering about any alternatives out there. My door seals are good. I do have a couple of small gaps between the door window and cab. I also have a couple on my cab windows as well. I figure new rubber kits...
