    M-214?

    M-214T Build? After a while of deconstruction, ive come up with this. Soon it will follow on to its true calling as a "shelter carrier" when i slide the M-109 late style box on. I plan to have room on the front for an LP bottle, Generator, Fuel, and a potable water bladder. On the rear im...

    Looking at a M923A1 for the farm. Automatic?

    Turning the ip up and swapping 395's onto a deuce will get 65mph but.... its not safe and your going to kill your truck. If you really want 65mph steady, go get something shiny. I hear 923's will consistantly run that but im not sure id want to. Especially at the advertised 3-5mpg. My 816 gets...

    Lockout hubs

    if youre contemplating pulling an axle shaft to replace it with a broke one to just have it capped off, why not just use a front cap? that was my plan but, plans change. selling that bad boy now. love the front lock outs tho. they make it alot easier to steer if nothing else. :maddawg308:

    Air intake cap

    One of mine had that when i got it. I either promptly gave it away or scrapped it. Probably the latter cuz i do alot of this stuff that way.

    "O" Ring replacement on M939

    I put the tire on then the o ring. Then put the shallow half of the rim on. May not be right but it doesnt leak. Im not experienced by any means. Ive only done 6 so far. Hope to get 6 more together early next week

    M 816 Crane cable length?

    I see several referances to mineral spirits and brush. For tight, hard to reach places maybe brake or carb cleaner? Some penetrating oils have cleaning properties as well as lube. Not saying this is propper but its food for thought When i worked on a well rig, we used whatever was handy. Gas or...
