That's a beauty. Is that box all aluminum? You even got to do a night time recovery. That will be very handy around the yard, good buy.

Jeep truck MV The boys that don't check the Early Deuce Forum are going to be real sad they missed this. You're hiding things and not telling us what you're doing so you may need to get that girl in "members rides" or "MV spotted". Tell me what you know about it? Did it serve? I have access to...

Hybrid G749 Did you get pics of you and pop in the hybrid? Bring the camera with you when you check out that other bed. If you're buying there's still that M215 East of you and it could be worth the trip. We're going to hit a truck with scotch guard pads and let the kids, nieces, grandmothers...

Really dig'n the pictures. The changes made to that beast are tough to see sometimes but if I hold up the lap-top and lay on the floor, it's like I'm there. With so many fluid holding parts on the G749's it's not surprising seeing the drips. What is surprising is how washing, re-torquing and...

How to prep for paint Do you drink? When I do my next one I'm going to do it on the one night a year I get loaded, sand one square foot at a time and enjoy it. Use a sealed mug and wear a mask, taking breaks often. When I sober up, she'll be ready for paint. I haven't tried this method yet...

G749 Re-engine front diff solutions Here's a link to a picture of a 502 in an M211. It cheered me up so thought it would help. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?7660-Installing-a-quot-conventional-quot-gas-burner-into-a-6X6 Post # 6. It's not much help but here's a couple of pics...

Ya know that pit in the stomach feelin', I just got it. I've read before that the top torque rod gets in the way when guys were swapping motors. Looks like they jacked her up for clearance and the springs are all that's left to keep the diff from rolling, uck. From the pic it looks like some...

Mine barks when I release the pedal. Not a big dog bark, more like a terrier bark. My question would be, 'what could go wrong while it was sitting there'. If you have air pressure up, oil topped off and pads set right.....what could go wrong? If you pull up the air-pak schematic and ID the...

Just like a five hundred thousand piece puzzle, one piece at a time. Still have some hard tops up here on 8 donor trucks that will never be saved. It's an option. When you find the soft top set-up check and see if more are available, I must have a soft-top.

The original blades can be found online sometimes, trico u778. As for the arms, I'm not certain but we can follow-up . . Anco SS-150 or Trico AL-60 .. We need to find you a donor truck. I've got a few up here if you're stuck. Keep the pictures comin'

You made quick work of that! Cut-off saw vs Plasma cutter is a fair battle. One day, we will have a cut-off competition. I figured the box would sit high but it really looks good, nice work...you don't need help. I see you're thinking about troop seats. If you put together a "parts wish list"...

I saw a picture in one of the manuals.....why is it often in the last manual? 9-8024....page 478. Looks like 3 sections of channel wide enough for the tire and hinged for a freeway off-ramp.

I have a 14" hand held, 2-stroke chop saw that would make 2 'clean' cuts through the box in less then an hour. If you don't have one, a rental might speed up the process. We have fabricated C-cans for the local Tac team and time is money. I'm sitting here all jealous that you've got 14' of...

Hood Support Here's a close up of your broken support. I don't have a spare but can get one up north if it's a part you want. Cutting up a box is hard on some guys so I put up a puppy picture so we can deal with this better. What about taking a 2' section out of the center? You could still...

Hood Support I'll try for some better pictures if you need them but that funky piece on the hood is part of the hood support. It's from group 1703, part number 8332633. The hinged portion must be made of spring steel because mine takes a ton of abuse. There is a dowel on the end of the rod...

Somebody went shopping! That hood is missing the big crease across the middle. Great find, looks pretty straight. When are you painting it and did you nail down a color yet? What's the story, how did you find 60 year old truck parts laying around Washington?

Did you get a tach mounted? Hard to tell from video's but we'd want to be sure that detroit's pulling proper rpm's and not over-strokin' It looks like a tough swap but sounds like birds chirpin in the spring! Beautiful. Been reading up on the...

Brake assembly G749 It's a big job but after a guy does a few ya just get jealous when you hear someone else is doing one! Wish you luck and wish I was there. After adjusting my brakes this month I'm glad we spent the extra time ensuring the adjusters work easily when we re-built. Two of the...
