    Building a Tank??

    Depending on the requirements of whatever you decided to take a track drive system off from - the option of having the chassis built from square tubing (rectangular) for durabability. Fab your drive system on to that. As far as bodywork - see no reason for a simulator tank to be made out of no...

    Too busy outside cutting down the weeds: If you don't have one you should get one - with shipping no more than $25 out of your pocket (less as some have FREE shipping) They have ARMY Chinooks as well. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XLBwecXGojY

    Please clean your chimneys

    Seeing as this was posted by the OP as a protection for members here as a heads up this is something I learned quite a few years back in a fire training session with extremely educated fire fighters. Most women turn on the dryer at night right ! If the dryer underside has not been kept clean of...

    WC-51 Restoration or Bust!!

    Nothing that a big glob of wire weld will not fill up - grind it off and its back to spec's again - little paint and WA LA - MAGIC. TWM - if that does not work grab a handful of zip ties and some spray bondo and go for it.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Marcel - there are way many more smarter folks here on SS than I am - I know it has the normal 3 wire to the rear of the headlight assembly but saw not external wiring for any other type of function - hopefully someone chimes in to advise. I know they are a lexan lense - so if you put rain x on...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Actually I got this set for free back in 2009 from my Trucklite rep. I gave them to my friend whom never installed them either. At that time I had the 109 and did not want to mess with converting it. So - my friend got sick of me begging for them back as I have the Trucklite LED's surrounding...

    Now that you have joined the GA Mafia crew that have tons of chit in their yard in metal form that cannot be legally driven in the State of Ga - hopefully you will PM Swiss and see how you can help us get this changed. Or maybe not ? Look at it this way - work on it another 3 more years and not...

    To dry PB's WC floorboards I cut a hole in the back of Debs oven - turned the oven on BAKE and slowly slide the boards through to dry them - must have forgotten to mention that to you. Besides when Deb wipes me down with socks my grain stands out as well :naner:. Two hours to let that epoxy to...
