    Painting Dilemma... Your Opinion Please

    Tower Gray I got home for 3 days and got busy. First I had to drive to the ranch and pick up the Deuce. Had a long 4.5hr meet and greet as I drove it home, everything went well and had a great time. As soon as the sun rose, I was cleaning and prepping for the paint job. We went with "Tower...

    Changing caster angle solved problems with G-177 tires

    could you post the part number for the correct shim? Do you have pictures of your install? From reading the posts I thought that this would be a specific 1 piece wedge, but what is available on O's website they are 50 pcs

    Painting Dilemma... Your Opinion Please

    yeah I have no intention on going through with the digi-cammo, that would be a huge undertaking. I'm sure a wrap company could do it, but where is the fun in that? I'm waiting on Rapco to email me about the FS36118 since its not on their site. If not through them, I'll order the SW Acrylic...

    Painting Dilemma... Your Opinion Please

    I've narrowed the gray down to FS36118 now I just have to find a place to buy it from. Millspeccoatings has the exact stuff but will be very pricey to ship 5 gallons (if that's even enough to do the job).

    Digi cammo a deuce?? Haha thats making a lot of work into a metric TON of work! I agree that would be amazing though. I'll get the base coat ready for it so if I have an unlimited amount of time in the future, I can finish the job. I am really digging the grey. Not as plain as all flat...

    How Many Ways Can I Disable a 939 Series 5-Ton?

    new guy here

    so now my task is to get the tires to fit on the truck... kicking around the idea of adapters, but will most likely buy M35a3 wheels and be done with it. I am trying to figure shipping right now for 6 wheels to Tejas. I guess I'll still need to flip the rear hubs. Then lots of paint!

    Hooks TX has a mass of 395/85's and 11NDT tires coming up for auction. only bad thing is, they used one general photo for them so you should go check them out. I just got 6 barely used Michelin 395/85's for 515. Looking for adapter plates or hub conversions right now to be able to mount them...
