    the XM971 "command camper" build

    Skylights are not in the plan thus far.. to me it seemed like just another point that could leak water.. I have a 3ton central Air unit to install, that should provide fresh air (having the option to pull from outside or inside the trailer) and there is a 4" exhaust for the shower fan in the...

    That is my power input for now.. I was trying to get power into it, so I could work on it with the doors closed (was pretty cold out) i was planning on putting in weather tight connectors before it's done, and also use a 220 cord.. The current cord is just a 110 (10ga) cord so I could get power...

    the XM971 "command camper" build

    I live in a small-ish town, and they really don't like my vehicle hobby, (also branches out to firetrucks, and other larger trucks) so when I got this trailer from GL, the tried to call it a commercial vehicle (no overnight parking of commercial vehicles in town) and I couldn't prove otherwise...

    Is a 1971 deuce a good towing solution for me?

    i used to pull boats out of the water all the time like you are talking.. (i worked for a yacht sales company) we used a old 5ton.. and i would not recommend anything less.. and you can pick them up pretty cheap for the older ones..

I used the fel-pro gaskes, and used 2 coats of copper spray (spraying the 2nd after the 1st had dried) after the 2nd coat drys, spray a 3rd...

    M923A2 Engine Swap

    the M939A0 and A1 came with a 250(HP) small cam cummins.. this uses the same block that the 400(HP) big cam(BC) cummins used.. you can find BC-350(HP) engines pretty easy, and can do a compleate rebuild (to 400HP specs) for $1000-$1500 But I have to ask, Why dont you build the 8.3 to...
