lol no gold leaf, just vinyl decals :) Easy to fix.

Well we are heading into the home stretch for the rebuilding work. We're waiting on a new three lever switch, a front seat belt upgrade kit and we need to find a left hand mirror. Other than that it's good to go. We had the front seats re-covered by a local marine trim and fabric shop, All...

Well we finished POR-15'ing the frame yesterday. Found out it's much cleaner to use a foam brush versus a bristle brush to put this stuff on. A sponge might have been even better. A review of the underbody did note we had a slight front diff leak, the front carier bearing is a little rough...

Nice trailer :)

Sorry haven't been on to much but we've been busy. The green is almost gone, replaced with standard automotive finish that was sprayed on by local body shop. The black is mostly Durabak 18, but we had several parts black powder coated and we rattle caned the dash. We are trying to figure out...

We are well into the project. The pump has shown up, tank being built and all the green canvas and vinyl has been painted black. We sat down with a local vehicle outfitter and calculated we only needed a 30 amp dc/dc converter. We also changed our two door back to a quasi four door with some...

We are looking at a 50 Amp DC/DC converter, because we already have a 12V lightbar and siren in house that we can use. We also want to add some 12V scene lights for those nighttime brush fires.

Ok I found out I was incorrect. I'm used to regular automotive wiring and not 24V military wiring. What looked like a ground lug to me is called a power stud and what I thought was a maxi fuse was a shunt. It's all shown on page 176 of part one of the service manual.

I did read their article and it gave some good information. We debated the 200 versus 300 gallon tank. Our current truck has a 175 gallon tank and has plenty of capacity. Our big thing with the 300 gallon tank was the weight of the water (2500 lbs) and the size of tanks and how it would fit...

Hey everyone; just wanted to say hi. If anyone could be greener with these vehicles than us they'd be from Ireland :) We got a 2 door unit through the DOD program and we are using it to replace a 30 year old brush truck that can't keep doing it's mission. This is helping our city save the...
