I swapped the old F-150 bench seat that was in the deuce when I got it for a set of leather bucket seats from a mitsubishi galant, I wanted leather seats from a hyundai tiburon but all the ones at the yard were torn. Hardest part was when they put the F-150 seat in they must have not had any...

Yep thats a hmmwv mirror set, as for mounting on a deuce I dont know how tall are they? on my MRAP mirrors I unbolted them from the Mrap frames and bolted them on the duece mounts with some added washers the new mirrors were ~3/8 smaller on the mounting brackets. Though looking at my mirrors I...

I know those bolts for the M35A3 wheels are on there I put one of mine back together the other day and maxed out my harbor freight 'earthquake' 1/2 which typically is my go too impact which is ~500ftlb, ended up grabbing a IR 261 3/4" from a estate sale for $20! I think that 1200ftlbs should...

Well I installed my MRAP mirrors yesterday before unloading my new safe with the crane, went for a spin, found one of the injector lines was leaking at the HH so tightened that. Then started debating with myself the Deuce lives outside I should I cut a slice off the exhaust to square up the...

Found a better crane picture from mowing my property this summer. Behold the gravely hoister 7000!

Whataduece, I think your seeing the cable going to the control pendant, it a 12v system so I had to add a second set of batteries and second 12v alternator.

I don't think I would trust the chain to much after the beating it got, the other end with the other hook went flying off I with a few feet of chain. But a few pictures of the crane. And mounting one of my new to me 395/85r20 MTV's on my M35a3 wheels

Went out for a drive, got two office safes to make into gun safes, I'm going down a very steep grade and I ran over a tow chain what was on the road it got sucked up between the front driver side duals and it spun around slamming into the under side of the bed till I got to the bottom. That was...

It does seam to be be more than double the speed, mainly because I think the compressor was on the way out. Once I have more air tanks under the bed. I think I'll be done with this modification. (well once I get the AD9 in) I might make a few adapters, but it wont be any time soon, I need to...

Well I finally got it all together a while back I had to make a 5/8" spacer for the compressor. It airs up the tanks much faster than stock. But a pictures worth a thousand words. So pictures

I'll have some pictures soon as the parts are in I ordered a rear drive shaft in that I will have shortened the width of one axle input flange to flange plus the length of the mid propeller shaft so I'm guessing 23" shorter. Along with a set of axle flanges and pinion shaft for fabricating the...

Looks great! How did you run your drive shaft? I think I see the carrier bearing.

Well I solved the pulley key question, no key on the newer large pulley. The "sheared key" was a low light optical delusion. But I found my first snag, If you look at the first picture from my last post you will see I saw going to use the front water cooling port at the top on the head and the...

Well I just got the old pump off a few hours ago and couldn't find my 1 1/8 socket so had to go get another after a hour of searching, which means I find it tomorrow in 10 second because if was right infront of my the entire time... But got the pulley off and I have to ask does the pulley have...

Well, from the picture I see they just pulled the pinion shaft out of another axle and in there case turned down the bearing surfaces to 1.5" to fit a set of pillow block bearings. And then bolted on the stock pinion yoke flanges, So this new bearing unit is the same size as the intermediate...

For most fittings I use laco slic-tite in the old metal cans (mainly because I got a dozen quart cans from work 20 years ago I'm almost through the first quart!) For the air fittings you could use teflon tape, but I fine for liquid lines or high pressure fittings I would use a pipe sealant we...

Well I unloaded the tires a little bit ago, their dry rotted but I knew that when I got them was mainly buying the rims, they hold air so I can use them to move it around but I'll have to pick up some MVT's Now its time to figure out the carrier bearing. I found this picture of a carrier...

Well I can start with the pictures now that I'm eating lunch. I went to the my hose supplier this morning and got a bunch of DOT air line hose and fittings to start taking out some copper. And for 5/8 heater hose for the compressor cooling and some Tee's for future heater install. Here is...

Well I'm finally going to install the pump today, but I'm debating where to hook up the coolant lines for the compressor, Should I use the same ports for the personal heater? or another port? I do plan on adding heater later so I was thinking on putting tee's and caps on the air compressor...

Well I just ordered a set of five M35a3 wheels with some 50% 14.5r20's on them for $295 each shipped it was more than I wanted to spend but I dont have time to make the adapter plates for the Mrap wheels. Now to figure out the drive shaft and start cutting some rivets to the air bags and front...
