    In regards to being chased by dogs.... It's been said dogs and kids can recognize horrible people.... so maybe a vote for kendelrio is a vote for a person puppies and kids like.... 😁😄😆

    Steel Soldiers MV of the month 2022 - August VOTE HERE!

    Lots of pretty words from someone who named their truck a "Bordello".... one can only imagine the depravity that happens to those poor wayward girls in it.... On another note, not only is my trailer actually USED FOR ITS PURPOSE (instead of being parked and neglected), but it hauls booty! (AND...

    I notice that you too, have suspiciously avoided denying any part in the orphanage burning down.... Hmmm.... You have a beautiful truck and I'm glad to see the BOT!!!

    Light bar!

    The wiring loom is pretty easy once you figure it out. I covered that and all of the tricks with the solenoid for power in the linked thread. long story short, theres a wire that plugs into the VIB (Vehicle Integration Box) and runs to the master power switch on the MRAP that provides power to...

    That's the kit I put on my 5 ton. If you go with that, feel free to message me as there are some electrical tricks you'll have to pull outta your booty to get them to work, and I've already fought and beat them.

    Chucky, you forget that I've also delivered food and puppies to a snowed in orphanage in the middle of the mountains... and as far as mud slinging, yes, it's true I have been known to use child labor and sweets to achieve my goals.... to quote the great Gunny Highway "I improvised, adapted...

    I decided during Spring break to paint the trailer, and my 11 year old asked what he could do to earn extra money, so our goals lined up perfectly...

    Steel Soldiers MV of the month 2022 - August VOTE HERE!

    So... after having it almost two years, my feelings got hurt looking at how dirty it was, plus the fact Bertha is no longer tan, she didn't match, so I am in the process of painting the trailer matte black to match the truck, and the CBC is going to be 3 color camo to match the tarp. And of...

    Ok.. my little M105.... It started it's life with me as part of the purchase of my M923 from @Trailboss How long he had it and it had been sitting in his field, I can only imagine..... When I got home, I really didn't have a plan for it other than "I'll use it for something some day"...

    Wood used for front of bed "fence"

    All- My troop seats are fiberglass, but the forward section of the bed has wood and mine is severely rotted/dry/brittle. Does anyone know the original wood used to make these or the best hardwood for replacement? This will be a project when I get in next time.

    I know you don't want to drill holes, but I managed to mount a of the lights from an MRAP on Bertha.... it took three 10+ hour days, but they work GREAT!

    Neat or other things you found when you purchased your truck

    All- There was a thread about this, but my search-fu isn't strong enough to find it... so... What's the strangest/most unusual things you've found after recovery? I bought my M1061A1 from @fuzzytoaster this past weekend, and yesterday while taking it to get a VIN verification done I noticed...

    Who needs a three speed tranny? Do we have a “donations” forum???

    Which is rather addictive ... Look in the "Classifieds" section and you'll find it bud.

    New (to me) M1061A1 recovery and lessons learned

    Question for @marchplumber and @simp5782 and anyone else with the trailer.. As far as the dovetail goes, does it change the offloading capability of the trailer much? (I camp in some remote places...)

    Well, yesterday my sweet lady asked me "Have you ever thought about maybe starting to smoke crack as a hobby? I think that would be a little cheaper and an easier addiction to deal with"... 😁😆😅

    New (to me) M1061A1 recovery and lessons learned

    All- I've had the idea since picking up my M37 to get a M1061 to haul it behind the 5 ton on camping trips etc so that when I set up camp, I would have a "grocery getter" (I like to camp a week at a time or better. I work 3 weeks on/off) so if I needed to go anywhere I wouldn't have to take...
