    Is Powder Coat worth it?

    I'm going to be middle of the road. It's worth it if you plan to keep the item and aren't looking to get a return on the cost to sell it. It's also NOT worth it, if the person/company doing the powder coating doesn't do it properly. I've seen powdercoated frames end up rusting again due to...

    ECO Hubs Who needs 3:07 gears?

    I have cleaned up this thread since it's turning into a classified ad. Or really more of a vendor related ad. It's ok to discuss the technical aspects of this. But there needs to be a ad posted in the correct area when it comes to the sales/marketing of this.

    3d printing/designing/cheap manual 4L80e controller

    I'm going to swap in a 4l80 into my cucv. It will have a proper TCM, but first I want to see if there's a uber cheap way to swap in a 4l80e for a "manual" control without relying on the shifter. The rotary switch is just a double pole 5 position switch to allow me to juggle through the combos...

    Massey Ferguson 20C 2WD Tractor/loader

    I don't think the 20C was used by the military. But I know the MF40 was. I had one. It had the data plate on the hood over on the "drivers" side of the tractor. It also was a very odd configuration. Instead of a normal transmission with a clutch, it used the "automatic" from the backhoe...

    M60A1 Tank - paint removal

    Dustless blasting is the way to go. I just had a M35A2 done (CARC'd). It will leave a sand residue all over though. But tarps could be laid down to capture all that.

    Patracy's deuce refresh and upgrade

    It's already past the point of returns. And I have welded it in place on the axle. Just haven't had time to work on anything much. Work, kid in college, kids getting in a wreck by a hit-and-run, Father-in-law in the hosptial, and now my step father had a stroke last Wed. I'm going to try to...

    Saracen or ferret lockout hubs

    If you feel the reward outweighs (literally weight) the risk, by all means, disconnect them. None of the vehicles in question are light. I'd rather have the load spread between the front and rear wheels on a side than relying on just a pair of the rears. I know from what wheel station work...
