Sounds like a very fair price. I paid $250 just for my towbar that is slightly twisted without end pieces or pins. Surplus stores want $75 per adapter piece.
I had about that much dirt in the back of my duece, I was very happy with how it handled, you could barely tell it was there. Only problem was I don't have a dump bed so I had to shovel all the dirt out by hand, talk about backbreaking. These truck pay for themselves and then some when it comes...
RE: Replacing Filament Bulbs with LEDs... anyone done it yet
Wasn't there an article he wrote either on this site or in MV Magazine? I remember seeing pictures of the LED's being placed into the tail light housing.
Pretty cool! What a perfect advertisement tool on the perfect truck. Bjorn, I'll be off the next couple of days if you need any help I can head out there or your more than welcome to come out to my house and I'll help you with your truck. Shoot me a PM or call. Nice job Gary!
I unfortunately just sold the D2. I figured it wasnt practical for my culdesac track home. I dont have anywhere to drive it without tearing up the street. It is now in Texas with a Caterpillar collector who's finishing the restoration. I got to "drive" it one time as it was being winched up onto...
Sounds like a fun trip. You might have trouble getting on base with having just bought the truck. All the bases I've been to recently in Ca. are very strict about having the truck reg, insurance and license all in your name and current or they wont let you on. Call the base ahead of time to see...

I've got one on my other truck about 45 minutes north in Neenach, Bjorns welcome to take that one, its the newer 60 amp. Only problem is I work 17 hrs tomorrow, then 14hrs on both Sat. and Sun. but can pull it off on Monday or you guys can venture up there and pull it yourselves this weekend...
Sorry guys, I didn't realize this was for the CUCV. I read speaker hole in the post below mine and figured it out. Disregard my post about the probe spot.
Had a great time, wish it could have been longer! My daughter LOVES riging in the "Ducie". Seeing Bjorns truck in person was impressive. He has done alot of really cool modifications to it. Bjorn , it was a real privaledge to have met you and your family. Hope you have a safe uneventful drive home!
Hey Bjorn, I have to work 14 hrs today but would like to try and hook up with you tomorrow before you head out, I'll give you a call tomorrow to see if you need anything as far as tools or parts then head out your way with my daughter and my duece. Devin
