I remember that thread, I even posted a video of the deuce running the quarter mile. How quickly my mind loses track of time.... Glen
Still cool to watch and listen to....
No flags... Glen

I was thinking more along the lines of how many of our short bridges your headlights would cross before your tail lights ever got on the bridge. You could build one whale of a camper on that chassis. :driver:
Seems a shame to do much to it though, we just never see them running around. Glen
When those fire truck and ambulance Mogs first started rolling into the US, they were cheap! You could buy a really nice low mileage one for under 4,000. Those days are long gone! I think it would make a great vehicle, except for the mileage part. You could drive a deuce or M109 for what those...
Looks like a lot of fun. I see that the mud was in no shortage there. How did the singled five tons and deuces do in comparison to the five tons deuces on NDTs? Is there a significant advantage in capability for any of the tires there. It looked like you guys had a wide variety of tires...
How did you know I had an 18" wide racing stripe? Okay, I do not really want to know....
I do not remember one before made of five pieces like that, always three. The main cover and two flaps.
Gimp, You are the Man!
I had about a dozen of these 105 covers go through my hands over the last six months. I always checked them for tears and most of them had a few. The one on my trailer appeared pretty good, until I noticed the seam in the side at a BBQ today.
It works fine for what I plan to use it for, in fact...
A lot of water, open windows and hit the road! We have been in the triple digits several times already. I think I would rather have the easy start at 100 than the fuel issues at -20. It was -20 the night before we started mine for the first time. It had warmed all the way up to 6 above when she...
We know its not my truck, mine has no winch, there would be smoke in the air, I never have removed the top bows and there is no white shepherd in the cab. 8-)

The price is cheap, I would sure have to wonder though. The 5.11 gear ratio is wrong.
Nothing personal against Internationals, but what an odd engine to put in one. This one leaves a lot of unanswered question, like the emergency brake. The original transfer case had brackets on the...
When you come through, I have a medium tow bar and the correct pins and feet. I also can send along fuel filters and the compressor wrenches. I would go with if you scheduled with me. Glen
I wish I could come and do the air pack, I would encourage you to look over my shoulder and keep me in line. This is one thing I have never done and would love the experience. You have a shop in Kansas too by chance.... Thanks for the offer though, I am one of those guys that would really enjoy...
It will not cost you anything to pull the fuel filter and see if it is plugged again. The fuel that ran across your finger looked really dark, you may have an algae problem, which will plug filters like crazy. Have you looked in the tank with a flashlight to see how clear the fuel looks? If it...
A squirt bottle, a light T shirt, kick open the windshield, roll down the windows, open the vents. Squirt some water on the T shirt and turn yourself into an old fashioned water cooler... cost effective, but sucks sitting in traffic!

Everybody must be feeling the heat wave and it has us a little grumpy. I was looking forward to burning a couple hundred dollars worth of fuel and actually getting to help some body out on my day off. I was just kind of let down that he really did not need help.
