Thankfully this thread is in the CUCV section. I hope we won't see that picture again.

With some hydraulics and curb feelers and it would fit right in.

You had to go and mention it didn't you?
Now we have to share it with all the new guys that have never been exposed to the horror.
( . . . and no, I didn't have the picture saved. I had to SEARCH for it. I'm pretty sure maddawg308 has it saved though )
That's just not right. And it can't be "Unseen."You had to go and mention it didn't you?

Those are the tires that came on the oh9 when I got it.
The tires are P195/65's! Must have been interesting getting them to seat on the beads.
the 6.2 had been replaced with a 454.
Have to pull some parts for my other oh9 as well as trade parts between them.
Then those little tires will be replaced with 35's, well after the lift gets put in.
I almost had a deuce sitting on a set of M880 axles, but we didn't take the rockwells out for a mud truck. Was only going to put the M880 axles under it to keep it movable.

I don't know why the owner built the truck that way. It's not my truck, but I would drive it.CUCVLOVER: That is a TRUE abomination!!!

I would bet that he will trade you for your tires and wheels on your truck.
