I actually decided to use cargo van seats in my truck. The van is flat through out, so there was no worry for risers or any of that, just welded on some angle iron and bolted them down!
Trucks looking GREAT! Are you brushing the paint on or spraying it? What kind of prep are you doing before paint?
The funny thing is, I was going to use the EXACT same seats for the front and my seat is ripped in the EXACT same spot! Haha. But I got rid of those and went a different rout that was a little slimmer.
Very cool idea!
I was on Eastern's website the other day and saw this. It's pretty similar to what your doing, and looks like it could work out very good for you! I'm not sure if you have seen it but it could help you with your design or give you a few ideas...
If you take them to Oreillys or an auto store like that, they have a machine that will load test the batteries and see if they are good and or can be saved. Oreillys will trickle charge the batteries free of charge (not sure about the other stores though).
Ill be headed from Atlanta to Fort Bragg next week sometime (maybe the week after). I will have some room in my pickup truck and could possibly bring a trailer with me if its something that I won't have room for.
Not charging per mile or anything just looking for something to help offset the...
After tinkering with it today, i have some updates.
With the transfer case in neutral, I can shift into drive (1-5) from neutral and you can hear the motor come under a load.
When shifted from 1-5 to 1-4, the modulator? box (Driver side and cable connects to the throttle) starts to make a...
I'm sort of having the same problem as doomsday is below but the twist with mine is, it goes in reverse no matter what gear I have selected! I have checked the arm on the driver side of the transmission and it moves just fine when the selector is moving. The oil smells a little burnt, but...
On the same note, check the emergency shutoff lever. My in cab lever was all the way in but the spring was shot (under the hood) and the pump lever never moved back to the right position causing it to not start.
In all honesty John that's not an outrageous price. It seems any wheel wide enough to fit 395s/53s that bolts directly up to a deuce is going to run that if not more! A3 wheels - 200-250, Re-centered wheels about the same as well. As time goes on you'll get better at it which means faster, which...
I have 10x12 door and its a slow roll to get it into the shop, making sure I don't tag a mirror or something. I def wouldn't go any smaller than a 12x12.
