IGD, I DID exactly what you are trying to contemplate. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/cucv/37944-hood-insulation-install.html I use fatmat, not dynamat UNDER the LMC Trucks Insulator (cost $62 plus shipping - you need 12 retainers to hold it in place and they are $1 each, plus the insulator at...

Really? I had not noticed the price of aluminum. Well, that explains the price jump. And $1k for an empty is a bit more than I can afford.

I saw several in CA last month go for almost $4k. And they were missing tons of stuff. These days, the prices are rising for what ever reason. The ones at Ft Meade won't go up for auction until next week. And there are several choices, from a 'flat bed' type of trailer to a full empty MKT...

I've been looking for an EMPTY MKT. As I don't want it to have anything in it, I guess the model does not matter. I just want the empty shell. I have an odd idea I would like to try. I have not seen anyone else try this idea, so I'll keep it to myself until I find one. IF it works, I'll...

Does anyone HERE have a STRIPPED MKT? I would like to get one with nothing in it. I want the structure for a fold up platform type of deal. Can anyone help?

Do you have a pix of the M105A3 step?

Yah, those 4.56's are steep gears. YOU CAN do 70 but THAT is definitely pushing it past it's redline. But I HAVE driven that truck long distances at 60 mph for long periods of time with no ill effects. But that is that ONE truck. I did have the transfer case and both axles lube changed over...
