    No help needed with M109 Restore..

    I was going to use it to hold a bunch of receipts or smaller pieces of paper not letter size sheets. I will be making changes as i see how my design works out. Things could get added or removed as needs change. I just thought of adding a small led light with the flexible arm to the console...

    OK before I continue with todays progress I have to apologize for the quality of the photos that I will attach. Today I went out to my shipping container to look for an unused metal tool box I could scavenge to use for the lid I needed for the Console. After a bit of searching I dug up an old...

    I do see threads of certain members that have friends coming out of the woodwork to help them with their projects and others like us that get no help. I guess it depends on a lot of factors like location, member density and just plain luck. I am sure that if i lived near some of the members...

    Do you mean that literally or are they a slang term for something else? I guess you could convert the console into a cooler to...

    Update for today. My friend Billy stopped by today and gave me a hand working on my center console. He was really impressed with what I already did to it! Makes me feel good. I did a lot of thinking last night about the design of the console. I decided to use external cup holders instead of...

    I went through over 100 pages on Ebay looking for a center console for my M109A2. Most didn't have dimensions or just wouldn't fit. After wasting hours looking I decided to take a break. When I went to my shipping container today to pack something for shipping I walk right by the tool boxes...

    Sorry to hear about your mishap! I would like to know what you were doing when it happened so I don't repeat your accident.

    Today it was 72 degrees out so I decided to do some more work on the truck. Yesterday I had purchased 2 lengths of Unistrut channel. I am using it in the place of the heavy angle that was attached to the walls of the M109 box. I used the existing 7/16" dia. bolts to attach the Unistrut...

    Overkill Customs M920 Build

    Next time they have the MK trailer for sale in Jacksonville, FL get one. You can get the Hiab crane from it as well as the cargo body. I am sure you can also find use for the wheels and tires. That is what I was dreaming of doing to a M920 truck. Nothin better then a self loading cargo truck!

    Leg/Landing gear/Wheel

    You can get the wheel option with 2 wheels on the bottom as well. I have one and it connects the same way as the single wheel. You probably don't need an extension with the wheel on. If the bottom of the pipe gives you the 21" then the wheel will probably add another 6". The wheel assembly...

    My new water buffalo

    I would use it to pick up used motor oil from local shops to filter later and use in a multi-fuel. You can hook up a pump to it to use in loading and unloading the used oil.

    Ok I got the soft top installed today as planned. Everything went as expected. The only thing I didn't think of was that the top of the window frame had some surface rust. i scrubbed, vacuumed, primed and painted the surface before installing the soft top. I am attaching pictures showing the...

    Sorry for keeping you waiting guys! This is my busy season on Ebay and I had to devote my time to making income so I can pay my bills. I also had to devote some time to the M820A2 in order to have it ready for Sirblissful to pick up. Had some storage boxes and spare fuel tank to remove as...

    Ladder for a M109

    The boarding ladder you showed us is not for the M109. The base of the ladder is wrong and the 2 eyelets on the sides are also not for the M109 mounting. Yes the ladder can be repaired. You just need some YANKEE ingenuity and elbow grease. I am attaching a picture of my boarding ladder for...
