    painting with an air paintgun, 101

    Mike, good advice from all. I used this thread as my guide and it turned out to be easy and problem free. Good luck! http://www.steelsoldiers.com/paint-bodywork/11373-rustoleum-rusty-metal-primer-red-version.html [thumbzup]

    Looking to join the Deuce crowd

    If you want to go topless from time to time keep the soft top. Me, my head is wall to wall solar panel so I like the hardtop. Just me. :driver:

    Generator plan - what do you think?

    Also it sounds like you need reliability, if you can get 2 or 3 of the same model so you have an instant parts source and perhaps almost no down time.

    M35A2/A3 heat, ac, off road lights, winch, and cig plug outlets?

    There are about 3 or more ways to do a heater. The original one draws in fresh air under the hood. Takes up a lot of room in the engine bay. The M35A3 heater is under the glove box and IMO is a little better. On my M35A2 I mounted a M151 heater in the cab.

    Need help asap

    I like the time I got a PIF invoice and the 10 day warning. Shortly after that the GL dude called and said the truck will be picked up Tuesday at 10am. That was during the Frankfort logjam.

    Hard Top Kit Inquiry

    Funny story there. I bought 3 of the Columbus hard tops, all in 3 color camo as flyxpl states. Local Army reserve mechanic stopped by and saw them, told me some time ago he ordered a bunch for his active duty trucks and they all came green. He had to paint the camo. Anyway he was told there...

    Mep 003a help

    Good luck on it. Probably something simple I hope. I spent yesterday running wire and finally after several months ran our shop on it. Even the big heat pump. Ran like a champ.

    Winch drum lock broken....help

    M16ty, I did the same thing. Pulled the old rusty lock out and just made one out of all thread. Used 2 nuts on the top to lock them in place. Works fine.

    Soft top paint

    I painted a few covers, including a cargo cover this past summer and so far excellent results. My method was to wipe the surface down with paint thinner, let it dry, thin the paint a little more than usual and use no hardner. I painted 24087 green Gillispie. Only issue I have so far is it...

    Hard Top Kit Inquiry

    I just put two on (by myself) and it is an OK job. They fit great, everything you need is in the crate. One big problem I had was putting it on the A3. The shoulder seat belt upright is in the way of the bolts. No fun! I have one left to do. Maybe I can find someone to help. ;) Cause an...
