    batteries in lmtv?

    I just have a temporary fix for the hold down of the batteries. Once I have the batteries for solar figured out I will build in either ratchet straps or a way for the cover to hold down the batteries then make a more secure box top. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    batteries in lmtv?

    I rebuilt the battery box and went with Group 31's for $80 each and unlimited availability. I also have the room to add batteries for solar. https://builtmfg.com/2016/11/14/batteries/

    LMTV door seal

    I bought a keyed ignition for my 1078 off TMG and I would like for all the lights that have to be manually turned on to work with the ignition. Has anybody ever tackled this? I was watching a video by Two If Overland and noticed they wired all the lights to a single switch but I want it to work...

    i've been looking at the Bostrom LTSS. It's a low profile seat with 2 inches of suspension. Probably my favorite so far. Here is another fav but I would like it to have some suspension.

    Bead Breaker

    They average about $240 if you search "hydraulic bead breaker" even used.. but the money isn't really the issue. Trying to verify what I am searching for (details or specs) to know it will work to breakdown these tires. This for example doesn't appear to be big enough. Whereas this does...

    FMTV High Speed Gears

    Well, it's all about perspective. It's still cheaper than a Fuso, Sprinter or a Unimog. The price of entry on these things is so low and the parts aren't the sort of thing you can pick up at Napa (for the most part) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
