I repainted my truck a few weeks ago and removed the soft top. I then finally got a hard top I had purchased and then modified put on my truck. It was a little difficult with the M66 mount, but I had lots of help. I also added a MK16 mount in bed to go along with the ring mount. Not very...

After two years in the planning stage, I finally got around to sanding, priming and starting the repainting process on my deuce with the help of a few friends. So far I really like the sand color. I used two part primer and gilispe paint. I should get finshed up before the end of the weekend...

I am slowly but surely finishing up the 454 conversion of a m1009. I got the hole cut in the hood today. Thought some folks might like to see a couple of pictures. I have a GTO style hood tach that goes on next, then off to the exhaust shop on Monday. Chris

I put seats and a console in my other M1009 this weekend. Seat came out of a wrecked PT Crusier and were easy to adapt to the existing seat brackets. I made a custom bracket to mount the chevy console. Chris

I have been doing a bunch of work on the redo of one of my M1009's and thought some of the folks on the boards might enjoy the pictures. I just put in insulation and carpet, a Chevy console, and then put in the stereo head unit and the two front speakers. I have made side panels and top rail...

I am in the process of putting a roll cage in one of my M1009's. I am using schedule 80 pipe, and gussets, and it seems to be shaping up pretty nice. Thought some folks might like to see pictures. Chris

Love it or hate it, here is one of my m1009's in CARC Flames. Chris

I found the weapons tray I was looking for from a member on the boards. I am now looking for a HMMWV turret to purchase, if any one has one for sale or knows were there is one available. Send me a PM or post a reply. Thank you. Chris

I am in the process of putting a roll cage in my 1009 and then the plan is to add a fairly nice stereo system. I found something in the salvage yard (never say Junk) that I think will work for me and thought I would pass it along to any other member that is interested. I found a couple of late...

I needed another Blazer like a hole in my head, but I just couldn't stand it and couldn't help myself. I am going to have to look for a CUCV 12 step program. Chris

I am looking for a source to purchase a weapons tray for a HMMWV, for a build I am doing. Any help for a source on this part would be appreciated. Thank you. Chris

I went this morning with my son and a buddy to pick up my 1986 M1009 in Jefferson City, Missouri, I purchased from G.L. It was 1 degree when I left and 2 degrees an hour and half latter when I got to the base. Had trouble with my 2008 Chevy duramax due to cold, (fuel filter) and had to opt for...

I couldn't find jack stands that I liked or could afford so I decided to build my own with the help of a buddy. Set up the jig to keep them all uniform, and then built the first one last night (only tack welded up so far). I have a little drill press work and torch work left to do on the first...

My EUC was approved in 5 days on the M1009 I purchased in Jefferson City. I will pick it up this week, weather permitting. I am planning on doing a build on this vehicle over the winter. Should be a fun project. I have been searching for axles/differentials for this build, and have been...

I wondered if anyone has made a stinger hitch for their Deuce to be able to pull a gooseneck trailer. I would like to build one up for my truck to be a quick attach and detach to work off the existing pintle hitch and/or a receiver hitch. If so, I would like to see a picture of the same...

I am getting my M35 set up for some serious recreational/target shooting, I got my M64 cradle mounted on the M66 ring, and am now in the process of building a custom shooting platform for the cab. The platform uses existing bolt holes in the floor, and can be substitued back and forth for the...

A buddy and I are going to modify a hard top for use on an M66 mount on an M35. Cutting the hole is not a problem but sealing it up afterward would be the issue. I would be interested in photos and information from other who have done this modification. I have seen pictures of some that were GI...

A good friend of mine and I, and a tractor with loader and forks, finished up the install of the M66 ring mount this evening on my M35. Thought it would take about an hour, but took three, including one trip to the hardware store for washers. Everything is tight and level, and was really a fun...

A buddy and I started the work of mounting a M66 ring mount on my M35, today Pulled the seats, put in the reinforcement plate, and have the three legs mounted where you can still turn them. I am going to enlist a little more people help and hang the ring some evening this week. I believe I...

We had a father son work day today. My son who is eleven did an excellent job welding up a receiver hitch for the M35. We also removed the pioneer rack and spare tire carrier and added a storage box, as the spare tire is now useless with the big tires and wheels. The storage box, which I...
