Mudflap Fuel/Water Can Holder
Got home and found no one was home...time to head out and do some uninterrupted work on the truck! I had 30 minutes and decided to tackle the Fuel/Water can mounts onto the mudflaps.
As I was sitting there eyeballing where to put the mount in reference to the...
Well, I've had the truck for about a month now. I think I pretty much have her the way I want her. There are a couple little things left to do.
Projects still on the list:
1) super singles 14.00s or 395s (16.00s are too big for my liking)
2) MTVR boarding ladder bolted to tailgate ( in...
Towbar Mount and Safety Chain box
A tow bar is something you hardly ever need. However, when you need it...you need it right away. Due to how heavy those things are, I've made it a point to buy one for each truck. Getting too old to lug those things from truck to truck. Also due to how high the...
Most of the wire you find in a deuce is going to be 14 AWG. But use either. I found 500' spools of 12g for $30 shipped on ebay two years ago. So all my patch jobs are with 12 AWG. Man I wished I would have bought more!

Just curious about something. Did you guys have to use ALL the parts in the kit when modifying your truck? Like the big "L" brackets? Or are they the same dimensions of what's already on your truck? I ask because I have the actual metal battery box from the kit in the M109A3's van. Thinking of...

Just found this pic online to illustrate why you don't want to use Lo in Reverse. Described as "does not run".Site rules state I cannot tell you where/when this truck is due to the circumstances for which the pic is posted. Apparently done in the yard as that cloth looks fresh and the fluid has...
If you're going that route, might as well put a short length of parachord on the cap. That'll allow you no worries in retrieving and allow you to re-use.
Windshield Gasket Caulking
Well, today didn't go as planned. We made plans to head to the beach. The first order of business was to mow the lawn. Well, about 20 minutes into the job my very first lawnmower decided to finally say it's farewell to me and just quit. Can't blame it, I've had that...
Got my State Farm paperwork yesterday. Here's a pic of my policy if you had questions of what the coverage actually is. Could only secure liablility on her. No problem. Funny how my coverage on the 5 ton is cheaper than on my 2.5 tons. Maybe is has something to do with their perceived value of...
