Additional work completed on the M146 over the last few weekends
Here are some more photos on the progress of my M146 from the past few weekends. I have added the plumbing pipes to get the waste water outside of the trailer. Looking to buy the black and grey water tanks soon to connect to the...
Looks good Ray, I like the idea of having the TV with the DVD. I have been also some progress on my M146. Wish I was at the point you are :) I do not even want to look at the receipts until this project is done. Keep up the excellent work.
Camoyj7, looks great, when can I bring mine by. Once it cools down in Phoenix, I want to get rid of the Tan and go with the camo paint. I went with Rayzars suggestion and did the white elastmatic (rubberized) coating and it does feel cooler inside and stops the leaks. I used 2 gallons from...
I bought one of the fold up couches/beds from a yard sale. It was originally from an RV. Offers storage underneath. I would check an RV recyclers if there any near you. Otherwise Camper world has some on sale at times. The reasonable priced ones come without armrests/sides as they are meant to...
That turned out great Camoyj7. Thought about doing the same thing to my M146 when I had my M931. But since now I tow it with the M915, I would like to put 10 bolt axles under it. Must be a great feeling only having to carry 1 type of spare tire, and having it sit even. You going to also put a...
Camoyj7 - Thank you. You can drop yours off right after I drop mine off and have you re-work the rear suspension. Great job your doing with raising your M146. I wouldn't changing my axle on mine to a 10 bolt so I can run the same spare as my M915.
Added another cabinet to have the cook top and have the same refrigerator behind the door. Still deciding whether to do stainless steal to this portion of the cabinet top or the same laminate top of the rest of the counter. Also need to add a a few more trim strips to the cabinets and put...
Anyone near Fontana, CA that offers pickup and short term storage to the weekend. I need to have a set of springs picked up and held to the weekend when I can get out there either this weekend or next.
Finally had a chance to start working on the M146 trailer again. I used Lowe's fiberglass reinforced paneling on the upper half of the walls. These panels are easy to work with and can be cut easily and attached to the wall with heavy Duty liquid nail for a smooth surface. Next is the trim...
The Cruse on Central was fun with all the Military trucks. I bought the seats from a guy on craigslist. They were made for multiple applications including the MRAP by what I have found. On a long trip I thing I would put a small cushion on the bottom, since they are very stiff fabric. The air...
The seat will be ready for him next time. Seat will go from 17" - 22" in case he wants a view too. Definitely nice with the air ride seats instead of feeling every bump in the road.
That is my HMMWV AC kit install. It is in thread http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?114325-Finished-my-M915A1-AC-Install-(HMMWV-Kit)&highlight=
We need a thread for M915/M915A1 and new M915s. So this is a good start to what I have been spending my time on the last few weekends. The outside still needs more work, but the interior has been looking for some attention for awhile. The original seats do not have enough spring to provide a...
And now for the Big Boy Toys. An additional thank you to (M920) Soni for bringing the eye candy, and humor, and (CastleBravo) Matt for his involvement with this event and making everyone feel welcome and have a place to park.
