    V100 mods

    I took the V100 out for dinner at O'Charley's then stopped in to grab a few groceries on the way back. There were lots of folks taking pictures so there's no telling where they'll show up :-D

    My M715

    Thank you, this was also my first MV...lots of great memories with this machine, some with folks that are no longer here. I bought the bands from Budd Wheels and made/installed the centers myself...even made the tall lug nuts :-D

    My M715

    Here's a shot of the M715 I've had for about 16 years now...it used to belong to a small fire department from my home town in Tennessee and was like new when they got it. Although I was a small boy when they received it on a federal grant, I still remember seeing "Sgt Savio" stenciled on the...

    V100 mods

    Here's the new reaper decal my daughter designed for me. With the flash it lights up and without it stays black. The open differential is now installed and the road test went flawlessly and we cruised at 65 MPH :D We're now tying up small details so we can get ready for upcoming parades.

    V100 mods

    I would have went that way but I have 2" 47 spline axles in this machine and the ARB locker is too small to be opened up for these axles.

    V100 mods

    We're pulling the rear end to take out the locker and install an open differential...in a vehicle like this, the locker doesn't like the asphalt. Shows up pretty bad during hard acceleration or deceleration :-?

    Periscopes for M114

    Good luck, useable driver periscopes are probably the hardest item to find for these machines.

    Police V-100 Tire & Wheel question

    I didn't have any luck on the V100 wheels, but I would recommend modified HEMMT wheels and wheel adapters. Unlike the adapters readily available, I machined mine with a hub and machined the inside out on the HEMMT wheels so the centers will run concentric with the wheels. As Rory has said, the...

    Police V-100 Tire & Wheel question

    I may have a lead on a set of wheels and tires for you, I will advise shortly. I built my own wheels, but the cost hardly falls into the "reasonable" category :-P http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/expedition-vehicles/1000792-zombie-killer.html

    Replacement engine for a brdm2

    I have the 5.9 in mine but you can also turn up the power in the 4BT. Keep in mind that diesel engines make a lot of torque over a pretty broad RPM range and it's very difficult to compare them with a gas burner. I have a 440 fuel injected in a M715 project that I started years ago...if I had it...

    Replacement engine for a brdm2

    I'm not familiar with the engine compartment for your vehicle but in order for me to do mine, modifications to extend the overall length of the existing space was necessary. Depending on the powerplant you want, you may end up having to do the same. It has already been worked out. All non...
