    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Hauled an art car to the Burning Man festival in northern Nevada, just got back...a friend built a mobile dance platform & DJ studio with 30K LEDs and 6 LCD flat-screen TVs, on a dually Chevy chassis. It weighs 12K pounds, but is tall & top-heavy (those are 3"x6" steel rectangular tubes for...

    Nice hardtop!! They really improve the driving experience, especially in inclement weather. Sorry I couldn't help you with the seats in Phoenix; I feel bad for letting you down.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Glad to hear that you were able to salvage your M931A1! It would be a shame to part her out...I hope you get many good years out of her. The more I work on my M931A2, the more I get attached to her...

    Looks great! I'd love to hear how she does while towing your 5th wheel, please be sure to give us an after-action report!

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Thank you! The passenger side will receive this treatment, much easier than trying to make a bracket around the low-slung mirror on that side (it works best for me that way).

    They're well worth it for the price he's asking...you could always sell the unused seat from the pair and recover most of your cash. I'm measuring up my own battery box now so I can install the other seat where the batteries currently are.

    Nice looking truck, good job with the mudflap brackets!

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Thanks! Yes, the limiting rod is there, but allows the door to extend into my mirrors, just like on my Deuce. The limiting snubber I added does just the trick for me.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    I got tired of continually having to reposition my mirrors every time I opened the driver's door too far...where the mirrors are is perfect for me while driving, so I made a little bumper out of a leftover bracket and cut-down exhaust hanger rubber isolator. I cut the rubber isolator in half...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Found a pair of NEW air-ride seats for M915A4 trucks in Phoenix, AZ, that a guy was selling...he originally bought them out of OK City from GL for his Deuce, but ended up selling his Deuce and kept the seats. The price was worth the all-day drive down there, only spent $150 in fuel. They were...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Fabricated some mudflap mounts for my M931A2 out of leftover 1/4-inch steel plate...it was a little rusty in spots, so I broke out the needle scaler & wire wheel on grinder to remove it all before welding. I thought about modding some mudflap hangers to include a 90-degree bend and simply bolt...
