I'll be bouncing around Ireland in a car the size of a go-cart so won't be able to make it.

I've got a 2x10 and a couple of 4x4s in the back of the truck to use as cribbing blocks for the jack. That'll work fine on a hard surface but not sure it'd be enough on soft ground. I-90 can be a nightmare. It took us about 4 hours one holiday weekend to get from Ellensburg to Renton. The...

Glad you made it out. I'm really hoping to not have to change a tire in the field. It's bad enough in the driveway with all my tools in easy reach.

Hopefully there won't be any movement that will wallow the holes out and they should be protected for the most part. I don't like doing anything to a military vehicle that can't be "undone" if someone wants to restore it exactly as it came out somewhere down the line. I think these holes are...

The way the OE installation works is the clips hang over the edge of the roof (except the 2 large pins that go in the center) and then the plastic push pins go through those. The sections I added extra support had no place in the roof or hardware to cover them so I figured the self tapping ones...

Okay the headliner is more of a PITA than I anticipated. Not only is getting the little clips a nightmare to line up with the holes in the headliner but any movement of the unit while trying to adjust it would pull the large pin nut inserts out of the ceiling and the only way to get them off...

Been there, done that, and got a LMTV hat to show for it. My $8200 M1078 has passed $12k, granted a lot of that money was for non-necessities to pretty it up but still, these things are money magnets.

Working exactly like it should so nothing to do to alter that. Still you SHOULD change all your belts if they show any wear. I put off changing the belts on my Gama Goat and when they went they fried the motor when it overheated. The alt belts are extremely simple to change but the water pump...

NM would be fine. We usually go over for Thanksgiving as the wife's family lives there.

Four. I got 2 pallets of 4 from GL and one set is going on my truck.

Yeh if you were closer I've got some used ones you could have for free. See, right there's a reason to winter in TX :)

If you have time to spare (little tire humor) I've got a set of mounted GoodYears that have never been on a truck. They're date stamped '08 and '09 but appear to be brand new. I'm changing my truck over to a set as soon as I have a helping hand to change them. If you're back in the general...

Here's what I was told when I called last week - send an email to SALESTAX@IRONPLANET.com with your item number in the subject line and attach proof you registered your vehicle in your home state (a copy of the registration or the receipt showing the VIN number of the vehicle is best) then sit...

Thanks AA but it looks better in pics than it does in person. Well I think I found another level of Dante's Inferno - heat and all. These stupid little clips that go on the edge of the roof that the push pins go into are a royal bee-atch. I "test fitted" the driver's side of the headliner...

Oof, I finally got the roof insulated. Let me say I hope to never have to do that again. While it will look good when covered and do it's job with sound/heat deadening, right now it looks like a patch work quilt done by an eight year old and that might be an insult to eight year olds...

I started on the insulation for the roof this morning then had to make a trip to town and by the time I got back it was too hot to continue today. I did shoot some temps between the insulated and uninsulated areas. Pic 1 is bare metal and pic 2 is on the insulation. A 33° difference is pretty...

I barely got started on insulating the roof this morning when I had to make a run in to town. By the time I got back it was really too hot to continue so I'll have to wait until this evening or tomorrow morning to continue. It is interesting to see how well this stuff works though. Pic one is...

Ok here's my experience with this. I called yesterday and asked for Daron or Kyle. I was questioned on why I was calling, what my item number was, what my telephone number was (apparently to match up with my account), and told they were both in a meeting that would last about 30 minutes and...

Come up and help change tires and I'll take you for a "comfortable" ride. You'd probably be happier in the air conditioned seats of the F250 though :)

You had a lazy adjuster. That's called a modified "swoop and squat." In a regular swoop and squat there's a 2nd vehicle in front of you then a 3rd vehicle swerves in front of them and locks up the brakes then flees the scene. You get blamed for following too close and the person in front of...
