    Oh my god.....wife posted this

    I told my wife I was seriously considering getting one, we talked and argued back and forth, she hates military vehicles, and kept on saying it was impractical, and we cant afford it. I offered to sell my 78 gmc to buy it, and she finally said how about you get a hummer instead. At this point I...

    F-22 at night

    First off, this info is NOT classified. So, I am on DET, where I am at, what is going on, and what all is there is not of any concern, but I had the opportunity to see F-22's taxiing by then taking off at night. I dont know if anyone has seen the lights on these, but they are insanely trippy...

    Bradley Drifting

    I can understand the operator stance on this, great skills create awesome warfighters. That being said, from a maintainer's point of view ( i am an EA-6B airframer) subjecting your equipment to excessive wear and tear has consequences, what if it threw a track, they are now a large nearly...

    Daily driver?

    for me (and I am not what you would call a "normal" person) along side my deuce, I have an old lifted chevy 4x4 with a high compression v-8. They both get about the same mileage, but the chevy needs premium, and my local offroad shop gives me used motor oil to run in the deuce... I guess you...

    my first spare tire change

    I picked up an air impact gun the other day to do mine, and even at a rated 650 ft-lbs, it essentially failed at its job, lucky for you that you have the torque multiplying lug wrench

    anyone made t-case doubler on a deuce?

    It is pricey, definately, but it is an option. As far as keeping it all deuce... I understand where you are coming from, but if you are going to bob it, build a doubler with 2 deuce t-cases, build anti-wrap bars, and have custom shafts made, i just cant really see the point in keeping all...

    anyone made t-case doubler on a deuce?

    my line of thought, take it or leave it, is using powertrain components out of a chevy. I read in a thread on this site that the bellhousings on some of the older larger chevy trucks can bolt up to the deuce engine, if you do more research you could find out which one, and hopefully find a...

    try not to cry, i dare you...

    so... I had to have a moment of silence on that one. My dad is a trucker in a construction company and often pulls the frame less end dumps, he has laid one over when the ground caved out under the trailer, with fast reflexes he had it lowered about half way when it hit the ground and saved both...

    My new M-109

    I am still trying to convince my wife to let me get an m109. Apparently she doesnt care that the m35 looks lonely all by itself, as there is no room on the property, an uphill battle but congrats to you![thumbzup]

    WMO filtering idea

    Yeah, I just thought of that this morning, my bad on that one, that way will only work with an actual pump, if you could find an old pressure washer pumpp or something and hook it up to a suitable electric motor with belts/pulleys, with enough tinkering you could make it work that way.

    WMO filtering idea

    they have shop air powered 55 gal pumps that work this way, the drums hold up, but its scary as **** when the drums start to expand or contract under the pressure. I would recommend putting a return line from the bottom drum back to the top one, that way you can cycle the oil through a few...

    New motor oil- burn in deuce

    i've been feeding my deuce with nearly anything flammable I can get my hands on, but since its clean, using it as motor oil then as fuel seems to be the best use for it.
