    Dock Rocker, The width is 75 inches. The same size as a twin mattress. Hope this is the right number you were looking for.

    Singer JTIDS S250 Shelter Project

    Very cool, looks like it will fit just fine. I could use one of those myself. The insides of my mast were rusted and frozen. Spent quite some time trying to free them. Finally, I just gutted it and drilled holes for pins in every section. I have to manually raise mine section by section. No...

    Singer JTIDS S250 Shelter Project

    Side note: I gutted to AC unit and installed a small 120v, 5000 btu window unit. After I drilled some breathing holes in the sides, it works like a champ.

    Singer JTIDS S250 Shelter Project

    I gutted mine and rewired it to 120v, and I converted one end of the original power cord to a 3 prong. There was no ECU. It did have the lower 19" rack, and I added the top rack on the table. I also installed a bunk on the right side. I still need to make a Cushion for it. I installed a...

    Singer JTIDS S250 Shelter Project

    Thanks, I put a lot of work into it. Here is what it looks like currently in the shelter. I have just updated the backend with another radio, monitors and I built two remote wireless CCTV cameras with 1.2 mile line of sight range. I will take more pictures when I finish the wiring.

    Singer JTIDS S250 Shelter Project

    I have a similar shelter as yours. I picked it up from Davis-Monthan AFB in Tucson, AZ. There were two both mounted on M1028 CUCV. I purchase the camo truck. The other was tan. The camo one had the mast, the tan one didn't. I suspect you have the shelter from the other CUCV. They both came...

    M101A1 Wheel Conversion

    My **** memory sucks since the TBI. My M105A1 is 6 lug, and the M101A1 is 5 lug. Thanks for the info on the A2 and A3, I guess I need to look for an axle.

    M101A1 Wheel Conversion

    You are correct, it is 8 lugs, the trailer has 6 currently. I haven't been able to find an axel the same length. I shorten the wheel well two inches per side to fit an S-250 shelter in it.

    M101A1 Wheel Conversion

    Has anyone converted an M101A1 trailer to accept CUCV Chevy 6 lug rims? If so, how was it done?

    Can't remove 3 lifters from block of 6.2

    You are correct and I didn't chage the bearings. The cam was replaced because the Key on the CAM was broken off from a bolt on the water pump backing out and falling into the timing gears. The motor has less then 8k on it. inspected the bearings with a bore scope and they looked good. That...

    S250 conversion

    Well, here it is. As soon as I get my motor back together in my M1028, I am going to start on the conversion to a camper. Still looking for a good price on solar panels.
