A jig is just so you have something straight to work off. Your frame rails make for a good jig just level it and put it on stands and you'll be fine. If you want to come down and see how I did mine your more then welcomed I'm just in Racine. It's in the garage and I'm just getting done with all...
So I've been trying to come up with a color to paint my green stuff for year's with little success. 383 is to light and when it fades its awful. So when I painted my m146 camper I went though several different od samples and decided on 33070 As soon as I started spraying it on my trailer it...
So l found this on carc 2 paints from Sherwin Williams apparently there are several other carc colors available I'm particularly interested in the fs34031. I haven't checked availability of it from Sherwin Williams but I think this maybe my new color of choice for my projects.
Take plastic cover off bottom of air dryer, inside is rubber puck shave plastic around where puck sits problem solved. I used sharp flat tip screw driver and carefully around the grooves till puck fits loosely, the puck swell's and sticks then leaks. The rebuild kit on fleebay includes new...
It has been done, my dad put one on a 1973 chevy 3/4 ton in 1978. Truck had 900.20 on front and big floats on rear. As a child we took this truck with the biggest slide in camper all the way to California pulling our modified 4x4 pulling truck on trailer. It sent me on a path with these trucks...
For the windshields I'm using 2-inch thick ballistic glass capable of stopping 308 rounds and for the side windows I bought some Humvee take off bulletproof glass windows but decided against them now I'm going to put plates on there that fold up like an old half track so l can use stock Windows.

Are there any other carc 2 greens available besides 383, don't marines use a darker green. Want to use carc to paint my armored m925a1. I've used behr on my m146 and a few other projects but it always seems to spit chunks when sprayed from paint gun or my Wagner airless sprayer. It's like the...
Sorry 4 delayed response, am using these cool 110 led lights from home depo. . I'll mount them on the walls and add some brighter led ceiling lights in the back.
Well I drive concrete pumps for a living and the old pump I drove weighed 106000 lbs at 300hp. The truck l drive now is 146000 lbs 425hp. So I'm quite use to slow and yes the 8.3 in my m931a2 is a dog when loaded with my m146 camper. That's why l went with an 855 Cummins in this build, it'll...
