Some pic's of my roof rack. The high jack is just settting there to get an idea if it is a good spot.

The whole thing looks like a big branch catcher. Maybe I can run some cable from the top to the front grill to guide them over, any thoughts...
Perhaps mount spare tire on grill guard, on front of trailer, on a swing-away bracket near tailgate or on the hood ala Land Rover.

2011-07-04_10-20-13_784.jpg and After


Was pretty much gutted out in patient area. Pulled entire front clip off and took cab off of the frame. Stripped to bare metal, new cab corners, rocker panels and inner wheel wells. Two coats of epoxy primer and then Rapco olive drab. Added a plow and now use it as winter work truck. Fun project. Hoping to find a M37 for the next project after I finish my M35.

yes it probably needs to be green but only have so much money for projects at one time. i have another 1983 2wd chevy c10 pickup i added the military 6.2 diesel and brush guard and bumpers to and its in for paint right now. plus i have a baby boy on the way so when he gets a little older he'll be helping me with all these projects. the bedroom + crib is all set awaiting his arrival all camoed out. so the crew cab will have to wait a while for paint. :)

okay... here is some trail pictures, over the past summer, looking to complete a few more add on's in time for when its nice to go riding again... onboard air, rework rear bumber, sliders, and redesign/fab transfercase cross member for 203/205 doubler. ( currently too much flex - keeps twisting enough to pop it out of low range as floor pan hitting shifter

What did you use for onboard air? An electric compressor?
