    new winches at HFT

    anyone think the 12,000 pound one would work on a deuce for one of those "OH CRAP" moments?

    Stow-n-go seats in a M109 Box :)

    Tagging along here. Ifa 109 is registered as a camper, and has DOT approved seats and seatbelts in the box, how is it less safe than the cab?

    M35A3 Cat 3116 Max Operating RPM

    Everything I read here says the 14.00x20's don't fit without a lift or mods. What mods are you doing, and what are they going to cost?

    Insurance!!

    Haggerty declined me as well. Despite telling them it WAS garaged. They said mine wasn't old enough. I had GL create the SF-97 as a 1985, and they said 'it wasn't old enough'. I'm just wondering if the mainstream insurers will balk if I call and ask them if I can transfer my 'camper insurance'

    Insurance!!

    The interesting thing will be making a second round to the insurance companies once it IS registered. I read off the finer print, the initial policy I have is liability only. At an agreed value of 10k, it's another $70/year for collision and comp. I intend to add that on Monday. I have NO...

    ~~What Not to do with a Deuce~~

    Driving a deuce for the first time, and getting used to the 'deuce steering' play, and the level of brake effort required to stop. Park your deuce and get into your modern (2008 ) vehicle with tight steering and 4wheel disc ABS, and have someone cut you off in the first mile driving your daily...

    Insurance!!

    I am going to try the camper route before I settle for antique plates. Camper = CDL, weight and driving restrictions exempt. The van body qualifies, and the thing IS tight to the weather with 7 windows, so it's worth a shot to me. When the insurance agent told me commercial plates were over...

    How do I get it home?

    [thumbzup][thumbzup][thumbzup][thumbzup]..Outstanding! Now tires and a PM trip to git'r'done and get it outta your hair! The scale at GL indicated 15,580 with me and 2 extra mounted 14.5x20 tires and rims on board as I was driving it out. I figure they HAVE to add up to 600 pounds between...

    How do I get it home?

    Well, the actual GL SF-97 mail date was 10-20. I have fedex tracking which says I will have my SF-97 on Monday at 4:30PM. I've seen an emailed electronic copy of it, so it really exists. Insurance in place through JC Taylor. 395's and O-ring/grommet kits from Erik's coming Monday to where...

    Insurance!!

    JC Taylor approved me...IN MASSACHUSETTS! From the application: "My vehicle(s) will be used mainly in exhibitions, club activities, parades and other functions of public interest and will not be used primarily for the transportation of passengers or goods." Also, since it will be garaged, I...

    I just "won" a Deuce in Jacksonville

    some don't need a EUC at all. My M109a4 from Ft. Meade last month didn't need one at all. They zinged my CC at midnight the day after I won the truck, so don't delay if you want to use a cashier's check. Keep in mind you have to get it out in 2 weeks if you don't need a EUC, so get crackin'...
