    Found some tires called General Grabber. They seem to be priced well, look decent and have good reviews. Now the big question, what size to go with......?

    Max Tire Size for M1028

    Just checked out your build pics. It looks awesome dude. How does the old 6.2 perform with big tires and lift since it lacks the power of gas motors and newer diesels? Thats why I'm hesitant on tricking it out and spending alot of money on tires.

    1984 CUCV M1009 build thread

    Way back when, he was taking it to a couple races, hitting trails and what not. Saw a couple of rough terrain pics and was wondering how it's holding up during those events. I call it a race when I run a mud track, trails or climb, that sort of thing. Not that he was racing Baja. But if he...

    Max Tire Size for M1028

    Nice pics. They look good on it. How much do the 255 cost? I also saw your trailer dumping picture. Does that damage anything when you tip it up on its end like that?

    M1102 Serial Number Stamp?

    No tags, found the vin stamp, still unsure who manufactured it. Think theres only two companys. Silver eagle and someone else. 50/50 and hope for the best. I think GL will issue a title if I give this info. Have to wait and see.

    M1102 Serial Number Stamp?

    Recently bought a M1102 trailer without a Vin Plate. GL says that it might be stamped on the eye somewhere under the paint. I also need to find out who the Manufacturer is. Any help would be great.

    Anyone know what this is besides a Square tube fixed Towbar?

    Ok cool, so it goes on a B720 or M720 Mobilizer Dolly. Are they worth anything and can anyone tell me how to get rid of them or where to advertise? I putting them on ebay, but I'm guessing it will be a hard sell.

    Increasing payload capacity m1008

    I put a set of airbags on my F150 and increased the payload 3000lbs. Also invest in a compressor that goes under the hood, it's a life changer. It automatically checks the set pressure and adjust it during the ride. It's Awesome, I love it!

    Anyone know what this is besides a Square tube fixed Towbar?

    I think it is a Aircraft towbar. I just looked at some civilian towbars and it seems very close except a heavy duty version.
