Fun hobby but can get expensive. I'll be near Phoenix in July with my truck hopefully.

No it needs to have the plastic strip on the front put back on . We pulled it off becuase it was flapping in the wind bad.
And it was such a beautiful day it was nice to have the top off, sunny an 75 all day
It's gonna get repainted back to green here soon so I'll need green covers

I think he has a used green one also for sale.

is the horn supposed to sound like it belongs on a honda? i was expecting a " big rig" sound when i pushed it.....kinda disappointed

 

[M35A2-AZ]

LOL!!!! No it should a little deeper then that. Do you still have both your horns on it?
There is a set screw on the back of it to change to tune. I think.

 

[redneck20]

both? there is a single mount with a dual horn( long and short)

Sounds like it is all there, you may look for the set screw on the back side.

i have searched and searched....do HEMTT wheels bolt right on to a 923? I'm looking to put super singles on the truck soon and need wheels

I do not think they will work. But I do not know for sure. I think they are the wheels with the 20 bolts to hold the wheel together and the regular 5 ton wheels have ten.

I'm sure you could find something at Alpha Tread in Tucson (where I got my wheels/tires).

Well I've slowly been working on this thing ... A few weeks ago we pulled the bed off to get easy access to replace the air lines..sense of security.
Yesterday we put the bed back on and I finished my repaint. I used gallons of rustoleum and thinned it. It sprayed beautiful. But I was limited on color choices, so the green is a bit "off" but for a full paint job for less than $160. I can live with it.... And it looks way better than the tan.
Also picked up a 50" led light bar, gonna get tht mounted next weekend.

From the pictures it looks almost like Marine Corps Green........this Marine likes it. SEA BEES used the same color. Of course this was back in the early/mid 70s, but it looks pretty good on your truck too. All the Marine markings would be in yellow, and the Sea Bees trucks I've seen had black lettering with a yellow Sea Bee emblem on the doors.
