    I’ve been involved in more design and more construction when you’ll ever know, architectural, machine and human, however I won’t bother to go into my credentials. I also won’t bother to read any more of your posts. You’re obviously too smart for me. Good luck with that. Oh, by the way Mr...

    That’s not really the way electrical contacts on this type of device typically work. If you have a long-flat contact next to another long-flat contact, they can unintentionally weld themselves to each other. To prevent that and to help more carefully direct the electricity path, there is usually...

    Great work. Why not use a Dremel to round off the rivets? Mark the center area and then just use a drimel to gently take off excess material surrounding the contact area. Simple and fast and easy for someone with your skill set.

    You should make one out of plywood. 😉🤣😁

    Somewhere there is now a turret that will never spin again. 😢 Great work. You will have a truly unique fun truck.

    I have enough trouble keeping the front wheels straight and on the pavement. Adding two more wheels to the equation will be sure to make sidewalks and the first and second stories in many buildings unsafe.

    These bolts are notoriously difficult to remove and cutting off the head might’ve not been the right place to start. I would’ve used a heavy Milwaukee super powerful impact wrench to try to twist the head of the bolt. It would either twist the bolt free or it would break off, either way would be...

    Great. I already own one. I’m gonna PM you

    I need to do the same. Will that bracket work with airlift bumper?

    Springer… That pipe, unless it is made of Aluminum, should be easy to solder. The water pump itself, can be repaired with aftermarket 24 V pumps as per Juanprado

    Don’t forget that you can always use a GPS program like Waze on your cell phone as a speedometer so you do not need a working speedometer in the vehicle if you have a good cell phone.

    I won’t argue with the fact that a four-speed transmission will allow the engine to turn at lower RPM, however even at lower RPM our engines create a cacophony of sound. It’s like saying the jet engine makes less sound at lower speeds. It’s still a jet engine. Lol

    Your work is outstanding. Are you running H2 rims? How do you like them?

    Nice work(!), but why not just make it out of hard rubber or plastic or fiberglass or bondo. Easier to shape and form and machine and still will last a lifetime. IMHO

    I hope you're correct. I though my radiator was good, but I decided to swap it out. That is when I found the two tiny punctures. I will send the old one out for a re-core, but I'm glad I changed it out. I really hope you have better luck, but these are old used military vehicles that were rode...

    Others have had issues with leaking quick release. Others have wrapped the Cadillac valve with silicone mat to diminish whistle.

    Seems like a 10 pound persuader would fix that bent piece right quick.

    Bottom line... seems like you’re happy.
