Ok so I've searched and searched but I just cant find it. I ran across a thread some time last year of a guy who built a hot rod, rat rod, Roadster, whatever you want to call it, out of an old deuce of some sort. I think it was an m135. I'm currently making plans to build my own military themed...
Thanks 197 that sounds like a pretty good deal for NOS stuff but I'm hoping to do a little better by getting some ones takeoffs. I appreciate the offer though.
Yeah I've got one but i'll have to let you know about the condition I'm picking up the trailer Monday morning from Wright patt. If its in good condition I'd take $40 for it.
I've got an NOS 900 series 5 ton hood I can bring along I probably won't unless someone speaks for it though it's pretty big. I like to get $175 for it. Also I'm parting out an m105a2 let me know if you need anything. Thanks
I know this is a very old thread but if you still around Nathanto, I'd be curious to find out what kind of performance your getting out of this set-up. Prop size and pitch, Weight of rig and estimated speed. If you don't know thats fine but I am starting a project with one of these engines...
Sorry for the confusion guys the inverter was assumed on all of the alternator options. I was just listing the way to make the power before it was converted. I'm am certain the truck's original electrical system can't power a 3kw inverter. The gen set is a very valid option I just think I would...
So here's the general idea folks. I would like to have at least 3kw of power available on my truck. (buying it very soon but not here yet). I would like to heat and cool the cargo bed as well as a few other accessories that will require AC. I have kicked around a few different options.
1) Adding...
As far as flipping without damage goes... I couldn't tell you because mine did pick up a few scratches in the process but other have had cleaner success. Folks feel free to chime in here if you have suggestions for the future.
So any way, the trip out there went with out incident and we averaged 27 mpg all the way there! Thanks to a grossly under powered truck. We left on a sunday afternoon and spent the night in MO. We arrived at the GL lot around 11 am Monday morning after miserable traffic. When we arrived I went...
Yeah I know Dave, and I have been looking at the 5 tons but I need to sell my porsche first I'm running out of room :) Any one want a porsche 924? Glad to here the tow bar is being put to good use.
I'm prepared for the insults that come with sharing things on the internet, The "what were you thinking" and similar comments but I'd like to share some of the detail of my first MV recovery with my fellow steel soldiers members. I can't say I recommend doing any of what follows as it wasn't the...
I'd like to chime in here not as an expert but as another guy with some of the same questions. I am looking to purchase an m923 very soon and I was told this weekend buy another SS member that as long as I declare a GVWR of 26000#or less I will not need a CDL to operate it. That being said I...
First time at an SS rally, I had a great time It good to finally meet some of the folks here. Special thanks to Djones for letting me and my wife drive THE BEAST. (before the dog bone issue, I didn't do that:-D) Thanks to all the folks who made this happen. My wife is stalking 5 tons on GL now8)
