    How much did you score those little bad boys for?

    Well you managed to find tires made only a couple of weeks ago! Out of morbid (pun possibly intended) curiosity how much did they run you not including shipping?

    Chairs in one slot and tables in another!

    And the chair would become one with the truck! Kind of like how a viper fish male mates with the female. He bites into the side of her because he's like on 20th of her size, then he becomes absorbed and just becomes a little gonad lump on her side!

    So close and yet so far! Very close to fitting camping chairs in there! Now the mission is to find a slightly thinner camping chair that's between 18 and a half and 19 and a half inches wide or design my own damn chair made out of square tube!

    What have you done to your FMTV or LMTV today

    Every time I drove my truck it kind of had a rhythmic shake and I suspected it was the driver side front tire because the passenger side front tire had recently blown and I had replaced it. I replaced it with one of the two new (2019 but never installed) tires I had bought from Feltz tire in...

    Yeah you get part way down the b pillar and then there's a firewall brake sort of plate with a little hole in it... I got lucky with one wire on one side just happened to go through it but the other one... well let's just say I gave up trying!

    That's awesome can you show how you rigged up those other lights to work with the turn signal cuz I think that's a very useful feature. especially for these trucks half the time I have the turn signal on seems like nobody can see them because they don't respond to it

    My neighbor is a garage door repairman on the side and gave me a garage door that was bent so I could use it for parts for my garage door that had broken. And then realized the panels would work good in the bed of the truck as additional panels. For example when I go camping in the back of the...

    The plumbing is just a quarter npt T-fitting with one male in the middle and a female on each end together with a quarter in PT ball valve and a universal airline quick connect. The original pressure relief valve went on the other end. If I had to do it differently I might put a variable angle...

    I attached an airline quick connect and shut off valve to my wet tank for using air tools. Picked up a 20-ton pneumatic Jack and 22 ton jack stands! My only complaint with the jack stands is the holes are too far apart. They put divots in the base at 90° from each other but holes only on one...

    I bought this fire pit cover to try out as a tire cover and it seems to fit great! It's silvered on the inside, black on the outside, has a drawstring, and comes with a little zipping storage bag that's about 10 inches square and 1/4 of an inch thick at most when packed. Material is some sort of...

    Actually I just looked up the official spec the Goodyear MTV 395 85 r20 are 46.6" diameter. currently there's about 7" spacing between my rear tires with no load in the back. Michelin zxl 16.00r20 tires are 52.9" in diameter. If I installed those the spacing in between my tires would decrease...

    interesting well in measuring the axle spacing on my m1083 unloaded and seeing that the 16.00r20s appear to be 8 in larger diameter it look like the tires might have the chance to rub.

    If only the spaced the rear axles further apart on the 6x6 versions, we could put the same tires on those!
