    LH, Not a problem. Remember, I'm a hardware kind of guy. Software gives me a migrane at times.

    Ouch! $40,500 and that's without the 10% auction fee or any other goodies added on!

    I'm having frustrations too. I'm having frustrations with the smilies and getting my avatar to work. I'm working on it. :turn: :smhair: I'm also trying to change the color of my text too. I'm wanting to get cyan, not sure if what I'm doing is correct. Plus my smilies in my signature are...

    here we go again with the snow

    WT, The big reason why the headlights were lower was due to foggy and rainy conditions. The lower your lights are to the road the less glare you generate. 'Storm was this way when I first got her. I prefer the upper position because I can see a little further ahead at night. The extra glare...

    Hey, if you look even closer she's a rightie! An even rarer Jeep yet! Now that's worthy of restoration to NOS!

    Batteries and starter got fried, now no power.

    Fujinama, See that's how you get a super cheap perm in your hair. When my wife wants one I ask for a little help in jump starting 'Storm. Funny how that only worked once with her.......

    BRUSH GAURD?

    Big Mike, Here in Indiana, as opposed to the priceier East Coast, one like it in chrome goes for about $800 at the Freightliner dealership here in Evansville. Again these are midwest dealership prices, your milage may vary.

    M35A2 fuel mileage

    BP, A five ton will put you over 30k if I remember correctly. You will need a class "B" CDL for it. Anything over 50k is a class "A" I believe. I have a class "A" so I don't pay attention to that stuff because I'm legal no matter what. Plus the doubles and triples, haz mat, tanker...

    Elwenil, You're right! As a former military photographer (231X2 USAF) that is a perfect pic of MM's Deuce. Nice job! Next snow here I'll try to get some pics. too. BTW, most anything with dual axles usually will not "dirt track" due to the second axle even if it's live unless the traction is...

    Cambo, Most impressive, both on the diff and getting the lady home! There are quite a few people here that would just about DIE for an opportunity to rebuild her.

    Cambo, Even with axle problems, she still looks to be in stellar condition! Just maintain her and she'll last your lifetime and that of your great grandchildren too!

    Guys, Thanks for all the info. For me 1k is worth it (once I have the money) because 'Storm IS the truck I want to use more often. Allowing her to work with less wear, to me, is worth it. She'll me my work/fun/play truck I plan to give to Nick when it's my time to pass on. She's older than...
