    Rusty Primer and Behr Paint over existing paint.. to use or not to use?

    Used Rustoleum rusty metal primer on mine. Prepped rusty areas with high speed wire wheel on an angle grinder. On the areas with good CARC i used a palm DA sander. Going on one year and no adhesion issues. I'm sure there are reasons not to go this route but so far I'm pretty happy. ;) I let the...

    Frequent Break Downs

    Another thing to keep in mind is that military vehicles were designed to have an unlimited supply of replacement parts and mechanical support. In other words, the taxpayers picked up the bill for parts and maintenance so periodic breakdowns or rebuilds were not as big a deal to a motor pool than...

    2016 Weare New Hampshire Rally

    I am going up either Thursday night or Friday morning. Normally I take route 4 to 202 so I can link up with anyone coming from the Seacoast, Portsmouth, Dover, Rochester, Barrington, Epping or Southern Maine areas.

    Upgraded deuce's tires to Goodyear G177 11.00R20s (dualed)

    Yes I did end up replacing all 4 U-Bolts Finished mounting yesterday with the exception of the spare which I'm getting a new wheel for. Hands down the best modification I have yet done to my truck, feels like I'm driving on glass with power steering. Also glides right over bumps that used to...

    If you are thinking of camping book it soon, I was on MVMVC page yesterday, spots are filling up fast! I may have some extra space in the back of my Deuce if you need a last minute place to crash.

    2016 Weare New Hampshire Rally

    So excited for this year, hoping to head up Thursday night. If anyone within driving distance has not been I highly recommend this rally, even if you don't show up in an MV. As always I'm willing to convoy with anyone coming from Southeast NH or all points due East of Weare. Looking forward to...

    Upgraded deuce's tires to Goodyear G177 11.00R20s (dualed)

    Milled my right perch today. After work I went to reinstall it in the pouring rain, but don't worry I stayed pretty dry and so did my tools! 8-) Right side went back together very easily, I was terrified that the axle would have shifted and caused an alignment issue when I went to lower the...

    Changing caster angle solved problems with G-177 tires

    Milled my right perch today. Milling the left tomorrow. Having access to a Bridgeport makes it easy!

    Upgraded deuce's tires to Goodyear G177 11.00R20s (dualed)

    Bridgeport at my work. I'm building a fixture to set in the vise so the angles on both will be identical even though I'm doing them one at a time. :cool:

    Upgraded deuce's tires to Goodyear G177 11.00R20s (dualed)

    Got started on my mods yesterday. I already got the spacer plates painted up and waiting in the cab. Replaced the cap screws and pulled the right side spring perch for caster angle modification. Just a couple more days and I'll be ready to change them over!
