    V100 mods

    I ordered some stainless steel nylon lock jam nuts and flat washers to replace the plated steel ones. Also I rarely use an impact wrench and when I do, it's usually for disassembly.

    Here’s the improved clamp plate made from one piece T304 stainless steel that secures the axles to the leaf springs…the original ones (made from six pieces of mild steel) would have worked, but like most mil spec stuff, I didn't care too much for the way they looked :lol:

    Street Legal???

    I know a lot of agencies are getting new Lenco vehicles with all the grant money that seems to be falling from the heavens, and are getting rid of their older stuff...some of it is being sold, and some is being turned back to DRMO. A friend of mine described a V150 that someone he knew just...
