That reminds me of the altimeter.

The main cluster will contain: Speedometer Tachometer (w/hours) Air psi Oil psi Water temp Pyrometer high beam indicator Now that that's out of the way, I am going to be installing an overflow cluster. I know that gauges can be crammed into multi units, but I like a separate gauge for each...

I'm designing my next house. Don't know when I'm gonna build it, but it's gonna have a 1500 sq/ft garage and capable of housing a HEMTT (along with my other vehicles) just in case I can swing one.

Driving a truck this size, on the highway, I don't see it as unsafe. Just stick to the right lane. I've put about 3k hwy miles on mine. I like to do 60 as that's the truck speed limit in my area and I don't like to feel like I'm holding people up unnecessarily. I've never had my truck very...

Is your shop a commercial truck tire place? I've found more of the commercial truck tire places will work with Deuce wheels than places that deal with mostly cars. For instance, and you might have these chains near you: Les Schwab won't touch them, but GCR will.

But once the truck got to rolling down hill, wouldn't it have cleared the ramps like it did in the video?

How do you have so much space between the air compressor pulley and the radiator??? I want to mount an A/C compressor and can't figure out where I can squeeze it in. I have 2 alternators on the other side.

For what it's worth, I would be less concerned about DOT and more concerned about insurance and/or jail time.

I'm a little late to the thread, but if you haven't made a solid decision yet, I would ask what you hope to do with your truck? For instance, I have and plan to travel extensively with mine, so good fuel mileage was important. Even among the A2's there are differences. The C vs D turbo's...

Funny, that's why I bought my A2. I've just thought of a way to kill 2 birds with one stone. Take that truck off your buddy's hands. You would get some use out of your $15 and if, in 6 mo. you decide it's just not for you, then you sell it. Have you driven it? Go on...

I don't know your area of the country, but you might also contact some veteran organizations/military museums. If you don't need the money, you would certainly get a tax write-off as long as they're a listed charity. I donated my stock tires to a local military museum that's located on a...

I know what you mean, I'm working on a 10x10 camper, and the wood stove I got is way too big (8" x 10" x 17"), but, then I'll be able to boil a pot of water on it, and more importantly it's the smallest wood stove I could find that draws air from outside. It's also kind of nice to bank the...

I like the wood stove, though, you might consider something over the wood just as a safety measure. A piece of steel, brick tiles, etc.

Custom made wheels are steel and legally only rated for off road or farm use, if this matters to you. One issue with military wheels is some tire places won't touch them, again if this matters to you. A tire place that mostly does commercial will probably touch them, something to keep in mind...

I know some people have done this, can you tell me what kind of light it gives you? Can you read by it, find stuff on the floor, etc? Are you satisfied with it, etc.? This is the light, I'm talking about:

Not the same guy, but I recently found this during a search. Not as intricate as the one in this thread, but it shares some similar ideas.

Update: The cab and is fully Dynamat'd, every surface. Also the firewall in the engine. Soundproof Cow's Quiet Barrier has been placed on every vertical surface in the cab, as well as the ceiling. The doors have Dynamat in the lower portion, that you can access under the panel. Previously, I...

I contacted a company that does custom valves that they have a solution for me. My plan is for each tank to maintain a separate line. The plan is to install a lift pump after the valve before the IP pump so whichever tank is active will be pulled by the pump. As to cost, it's $650 for the...
