Oh duh, I somehow saw an old version of the thread and the most recent pics were of when it only had one rear axle.

Any new photos. I think this is an awesome idea and I would like to see it. Did you keep the total length of the bed or did you shorten the bed to get the room. I want to do the same thing and I am guessing I need a parts truck and need to add about 5 feet to the frame. Have you addressed the drive shaft? I was thinking about using an additional section as long as what I added to the frame and then running to a carrier barring then down to the rear-end. Your thoughts?

Going to camo the bed today, and just got the driveshaft back friday. the M105 bed is full length, 9' and the frame is full length also, I added nothing to it. The wheel base is about 20" longer than a 6x6 so its like driveing a school bus. The driveshaft ended up 97" long so I had to put a carrier bearing in it. I am going to mount it off the stock crossmeber off the frame. I will try to post some pics tonight.

Got some more done on the truck today, seats all installed, data tags back on the dash, bed camo, driveshaft installed, and headliner installed. I will have this truck done tommorow and outside and will take some good pics of it in the sunlight. The rear seat is out of a '02 Ford super duty crew cab rear seat. it was quick and easy. I had to make some brackets for it of course. Going to call my window tint guy and get the windows tinted soon.

Oh wow I had no idea. I have to turn mine into a crew cab I just have to wait till I can afford it. I think I want to leave the ful size bed on mine and just add about 5 foot into the frame but I am going to have to come up with a junt truck to scrap out for cab parts and frame parts. Is 5 foot about right as to what to add to the cab? Do you know of any problems that my idea will create that I don't know about that would make me regret it? Thank you for sharring. The main thing I have found about the Deuce crowd is they are very helpful and kind. It is really nice to find a group of people that are not totally self absorbed and willing to help bring someone like me along!

photos
you have to have a pic that I can see the little one is too small. I am like a rabid dog and I need to see it!!! It sounds way to cool and I am thinking that this military truck thing is going to get expensive. I started it because I thought it would not cost much. I am begeinning to think I was wrong

I copied this off of this website some time ago. It is photo-work but I didn't keep track of whose post it was. Wouldn't that be great!

Here are some finshed pics of the truck, I am having a guy come out tonight and tint the windows, and it will be done. The truck drives great, and rides very smooth. It has no vibrations even at 70MPH. I think it has turned out very good, and yes I will put a price tag on it if someone wants it, but I plan to drive this one for a while, unless someone wants it worse than I do. I also wanted to let you guys know that I am getting into the new parts market for these trucks and other military vehicles. I have filiters, brake parts, electrical, exhaust, and all the normal parts you guys might need, and can get just about anything. I will be adding these to my ebay store in the upcoming weeks.
