Personally, I tack weld a small SS washer onto the rod ends (that will never break off or fail, but can still be pulled off with plyers if needed). But I know some like to "keep it OEM" so....

$20 shipped for 50 lefts and rights (you need both). That's far less than a single set sold by "community vendors" (who also will charge you another $10 for shipping). *No point of compass website required: https://henrysautowarehouse.com/product/clearance-3/...

Date codes? (sorry, had to....it's mandatory ;)

Only in my mind. Have a folder full of images from other trucks and the Interwebz. I know what I want to do, though. I really need a proper bender before I start that aspect of the project. I have to make a repair to my sand rail frame (which is torn down) and a roof...

$80 it was hard to pass up. :) Been hanging in the garage since I did a quick test fit on my first truck. Gonna take a bit of modification of course. It will go under the cab branch guard and will have access doors for the stowage area up top. I thought it would be nicer than...

Years ago I looked at the crane that Colt used. They have an angle that (by my calculations) would prevent it from being able to turn 360 degrees if your bed rails are installed. So I favor the "straight" vertical run that can be rotated w/o removing the bed rails. Depends on if you want a...

It's a secret. *hint: you can't tell by the image but it's the exact size of the LMTV cab roof. /whistles

Horror Freight or Notherntools crane + Horror Freight 2K ATV winch. Make a base insert out of 4"x4" box tube. Rattle can paint. /done I've made three of them in the past four years (two for my trucks and one for my M1082 trailer, sans insert on the trailer of course...it's fixed mounted).

My neighbor has that one and it is quiet! I picked up one of these at Sam's Club last month. Really for the house and backup power (always wanted a spare for hurricane season). I have 6K diesel on the M1079 also as a backup...

Na, skid plates would cover any situation I ever get into with the M1079. If I want to rock climb or do wheelies or jump shit I'll use something other than my LMT(r)V/motorhome. :)

Why not get a truck that has all the goodies you want, and slap an LMTV cab onto it. Because.... :)

I've thought about some sort of skid plate/protection for the fuel and air tanks. That's about as fancy as I'd care to get, personally. I mean at some point when you talk enough about "Cummins swap", "re-gear", "disc brakes", "lockers", "frame alterations", "axel swaps", "relocating...

There's a used here who did this I think. He's got the truck with the CAT yellow rool bar and cage (name escapes me at the monemt..."Olihondro" or something?)

Typically, I don't do the beach on holiday weekends (fucking tourists). But this afternoon a buddy came by with pizza and beer on his way out to fish and I had a load of brush to burn already on the trailer so we rolled to my "secret spot". Landed two Black Tip the first 30 minutes. This...

And of course there are the "non-surplus" variants for 1/100th the price https://www.amazon.com/Mr-Compass-Circle-Circular-Cutting/dp/B08KFNG22K/ref=pd_sbs_3/145-2060804-0756153

"Aye mate, ya need ya lube"

I use some rubber gasket material. I think I spent $4 on a sheet of it. So if you can trace a circle and use scissors.... :)

They make awesome traction pads (the plastic ones tend to turn into shit under an LMTV).

Found this pic I had saved. This is what the decon kit looks like. I think the TM lists the car wash goodies...
