I have been away from the forums for a while... Working on my HSTRU since last September to get it ready for this year's cross country trek to AZ for Overland Expo and camping. I haven't touched the S250 or trailer other than to grab a new tongue jack. Will get back to the project in the summer...

Ok have some time to give the build much needed attention. Three items on the menu. 1. Adapt a sink and faucet using one of the original radio racks as a prototype to try and keep the style of the commo shelter. Will post pics tomorrow of how this is looking and showing the concept. 2. Devise...

Nothing exciting to report... Been working on my LMTV and just returned from a camping expedition back in Arizona with my commando Hydro Repair Trailer. Found a crazy small air conditioner I am going to use on the S250 and working on water system soon. OD

Thanks for the words of support guys will keep the pics coming. Purchased the phones from eBay and field wire reel from Sportsmansguide. Ebay prices on wire are crazy.

Not sure if posting all the little details on this build will annoy folks but I have a very minor addition... I was going to rip out all the brackets and racks leaving just the folding table thingy and the power disrto box but after hanging out in the S250 and contemplating life while looking...

S250 is starting to clean up nicely...

I had no idea there were 110v BA15 base light bulbs out in the world. Look just like 1157 car bulbs but even pins and 110 volts NOT 24! Don't ask me how I figured it out... Anyway, these are commonly (apparently) found in household appliances like sewing machines and vacuum cleaners. Picked...

quarkz, ah ok LOL. Gotcha! OK, Round 1 of cleanup/cleanout pic. I removed all the racks and the back conduit thingies and did some light vacuuming. Jerry can is to show scale. I may leave the bottom storage containers you see in the pics for gear. The ones on the right are just sitting in...

quarkz, I spent last weekend pulling out all the racks and doing some cleaning. Funny you should mention the space difference from the HSTRU camper I built... After I pulled out the racks I was sitting in the shelter thinking WOW this thing won't take anywhere near the effort and time to make...

It is an S250 it may look smaller with the smaller tires on the M1102. They are not quite 6" less in diameter than the stock 37's. Trailer sits about 2.5" lower. Which is the exact look I was going for.

Interior pics before any work is done. Going to leave the cool folding table and the power distribution center. I rigged up a reverse electrical cord, plugged it in and all the lights work great. checked all the outlets with an outlet test thingy.

Finally received the title from GP for the M1102 and got it titled and registered... by the way military vehicle and trailer registration in Missouri is a REAL PAIN! Just went and picked up an S250 from HMMWV Nut (had a great time checking out the other stuff he has for sale and talking with...
