    M1028 700R4 Conversion Been Done?

    It can be done. Boyce Equipment did one for me years ago. It does take adapters, I think. I bought it from them and they did the swap, so I never saw it in the original. A good transmission shop should be able to do it. There is a need to have a switch on the passenger side of the transmission...

    Practical uses for a Deuce

    A survival mechanism. When someone idiot is paying more attention to their cell phone and/or texting and you collide . . . you win.

    Where's Your License Plate?

    Mine is on the right side of the bumper over the blackout light. No license plate light for the past eight years, but have not been bothered about it.

    Her name is Madeuca

    I am really curious about this, seeing as I live close to Springfield, but I can't get the link to the Guard site to work - cannot find server or DNS error.

    Every guys nightmare, PINK CAMO

    Given the kinds of things that have gone on in this state in the last 5-10 years, I would say that yes, with the proper approach, the State would buy it.

    Every guys nightmare, PINK CAMO

    I'm OK with it. It is for a good cause. If you had put it on Blazer axles, that would have been going too far . . .

    Need licence plate sugestions...

    Not that you would necessarily want this as a license plate, but there is an SUV being driven around the Springfield Illinois area that has 'OMG WTF 4' . I would suggest WHY NOT or BIG ENUF or LARGE. I would not go with BUNNY, unless you really wanted to.

    Help out a new guy!

    You are one step closer to being able to run over things. Especially zombies. You never know when they will show up.

    Help out a new guy!

    I think Biggles has his truck finally. By fortunate circumstance, I was on the west side of Springfield late this afternoon and saw a tan deuce on a trailer headed south toward Chatham. From the passing look I got at it, I think it looks pretty good. I was, and still am, just a little bit...

    Help out a new guy!

    Now I have to go cruise the Chatham area to see this truck . . . Start rooting through www.cyberdriveillinois.com. I did that a while back, because I do want a deuce . . . . some day. It seemed to me that you had to go the commercial route if you wanted to be able to do anything with it - and...

    Offroad Lights

    If you are concerned about getting a light damaged as a result of its location, you might try a Golight, which I have seen at www.gemplers.com. A 400K candlepower work light with 370 degrees of rotaion and 120 degrees of tilt. You can get a remote control and an optional magnetic base, so you...

    JC Taylor Insurance Problems

    I have my M1028 (shelterless) insured by State Farm. After getting past the VIN issue, it has been OK. My agent has a good office assistant.

    New Guy from Illinois

    Any place that can have flooding has an automatic need for a MOFAB. There have been floods around here. It is a perfectly valid reason. Just imagine the attention a MOFAB would get at the annual Cruise for Charity and the Route 66 Mother Road Show. If I could afford it, I would do it. I wonder...

    New Guy from Illinois

    I see you are coming around to the green way of thinking. Your disease is progressing nicely. To complement the deuce collection, I recommend stopping by Midwest Truck and Auto Sales at 420 Dirksen Parkway in Springfield. They have a camoflauge MOFAB (Mobile Floating Assault Bridge/Ferry)...

    Practical uses for a Deuce

    Some people spend a lot more money collecting used postage stamps . . .

    New Guy from Illinois

    Biggles . . . I know where you will find a deuce much closer to home. It don't know that it is for sale or not, but it might be if you make an offer. If you are familiar with the north side of Springfield, cruise up Veterans Parkway and head north towards Sherman. Vancil Contracting is on the...
