I just wonder would this save a MV from a...

Ok I have read a lot of post on here.
Has anyone found a 16inch wheel that will fit the m1009? I'm looking for a simple and cheep rim. I have almost new tires of the 16 inch flavor.
As another note has anyone swapped hubs GM 6 to 8 lately?
does anyone drive a M1009 with out the back ? or is there a mod to have a
avalanche type cover for the back cab ?
anyone have photos of there cool looking blazer ?
My fuel pump in my deuce tank is dead . would a 24v electric be killed by WMO faster then the standard sump pump type that cam with the truck ?
I have toasted 12v inline pumps with just a few hrs of W V O pumping tank to tank transfers.
So I have been told by a few others that engine braking a deuce is a bad idea both the trans and the engine. do not like it ?
is this fact or fiction .
is there a correct way to engine brake?
is there any harm in running with the in tank pump now working ?
I have 26Volts on one wire and the fuse is ok , I think the pump may be dead
however the deuce starts great and runs fine , maybe a little less power ?
Has anyone had a problem displaying a gun truck ?
I see most all gun sale sites that make fake guns have a RED tip on them.
What do I need if I'd like to build a gun truck?
