Moved the pioneer tool rack
Today I moved the pioneer tool rack to the back door. I used the same brackets used to mount underneath. Ran carriage bolts through the door with 4 over sized washers.
I am installing a diesel generator where the spare tire and tool rack used to be. Will post...
Respirator......?
My hats off to you on your most audacious BOV. I like the new shirt in black. I noticed when you were spraying the truck you were not wearing your respirator.
Whats up man, Safety first..!
Fording compressor intake
Last week I installed a NOS air compressor, I read a few months ago about fording and wanted to install a good quality rubber hose that would not collapse when the air was sucking through it. I went to Tractor supply and found a 1-1/4"OD X 10' hose made for a washing...
I bought the 109 off of oddball and convoyed up to the 2011 Ga Rally with the Fla crew, then back to Michigan. Ferro did the recovery for oddball.

Changed Air Compressor
When I picked up this truck in Fla this time last year the original air compressor had a small leak. HDexpert shipped me a NOS unit for R & R.
I had a major problem removing the pulley. I soaked the shaft overnight, used a 3 claw puller and broke the puller at the...
Remounted Fuel tank and Fuel seperator/pump.
At first I was happy the tank and the fuel separator fit in the box with the tailgate closed. Then I was rethinking the whole thing.
I took a good look at the 308 gallon fuel tank. Originally there was a Cat 250Kw generator mounted to the fuel...
I had a terrific idea, Would you or shall I say can you put this product into producion..? Looks easy to make. All the buyer has to do is install, weld a few tabs. looks like a "if it fits it ships" size to me.
I would like to order 2 please,lol
Good idea..!
I finally got around to mounting a 308 gallon fuel tank in the back of the A3. I bolted with oversize washers and double nutted the bolts through the bottom. Grade # 8. I mounted the fuel pump on the back and bolted it the same way. I still have to plumb it with a 3 way ball valve for the...
Took a trip through Detroit yesterday, Ended up going through Dearborn, that was a trip. The festival was fun. Stopped by a few Detroit landmarks for a pic or two.:driver:
Mogger67 went along for the ride and was good company for a change. I let him drive the city/freeway home. He still cant...
You have an excellent looking truck there. No this 109 I drove back from Florida last year, I got it from Oddball, you are thinking of 3DAngus M-109 with the shower, sink, bed and desk. Mogger67 my friend picked that one up late last fall. I would talk to Dell and ask him how he did the mods.
Caliber1,
Here is a few pics from the oddball thread: Post 22: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/members-rides/66256-oddballs-m109-w-trailer.html
Chris fabed it so it is removable if needed. I pulled a caboose down a private track last fall to its final resting place with the hitch. If you have...
Installed a Binocular holder as a cup holder and a Ammo can as a console. Also painted the Ammo Can seat base to match the truck. Reinstalled the fire extinguisher to a better spot.
