    Deep water Fording kit usefulness

    1 ) maybe. 2 ) very likely. I wouldn't risk it in a vehicle I cared about. 3 ) Nearly certainly. Also, anything that leaks under normal circumstances will allow water in if submerged. Something to think about.

    storing my humvee for 3 months

    trailer using M105 axles

    102" is max legal width. I wouldn't chance it. LEO already looks hard at duallies with bigger than stock tires. 35x12.5R17 in a stock ram 3500 DRW exceeds 102" . I've got 285/75r17 on the redtruck, and it's legal 100.xx", and they still pull me over and tape measure it. I was considering...

    deuce 12v conversion

    To deliver the same power at 12v as is delivered at 24v you have to double the amperage. Double amps = double the waste heat = less efficient. I can see advantage to having a 12/24 system to use 12v items. I can see absolutely no advantage to removing 24v items and replacing with 12v.

    Air Brake Scare

    Pre-Buy jitters, Reliability nightmare horror stories... Please Help.

    I wouldn't trust any vehicle enough to want to get 3 days away from pavement without a secondary vehicle. Even if just a mountain bike. A 3 day drive is a loooong walk.

    M35 tires

    Nothing at all wrong with them. They are extremely capable offroad. If it's not broke, why fix it? And you can get them cheap from someone swapping out to singles. I'll have a full set available in a couple of months...
