    M1078 camper in the Glamis dunes Thanksgiving 2016

    Well I have been reading all the posts but not doing much around here on my . I was building tanks and roof racks for Steve but not much else. I did have to replace a camper window since I was plinking ground squirrels and a pellet hit my window and shattered it. DOOOH! Well, I have been busy...

    What Air Ride seat base ?

    I also use suspension seats. Works very well. I've sat in them for many hours racing Baja. MasterCraft seats are amazing but there are others just as good and cheaper. They use 550 cord stretched around the framework to support your backside. They will last just as long as any seat will. And you...

    Just picked up my first m1078! Air Compressor broke on way home!

    I agree! The old compressor I replaced was very gummed up with nasty goo. The governor can be picked up from any truck parts place for about $30 bucks. Or you can go to a vender on here and pay $65 if you like.

    New M1078 owner

    The only reason I didn't register the truck as "just the truck" was because of the end cost. The truck was easy to register in Ca., but it would be considered commercial vehicle and as I was already building my camper I figured the $1200.00 reg fee would be better spent on the camper. As an RV...

    I disagree. I have mine registered and drive it every day. Registration was easy.

    FMTV Highway Speed

    I have a question. How many of us growing up have had pickups, Jeeps, Broncos that we have put bigger tires on it to make it look Bad A.? But after we drove it around we found that it got even worst mileage and would barely get out of its own way from a stop. My1997, 1078 will go 62mph on a flat...

    M1078/M1079 for overland camper?

    I will have to look at this trip. Its 15 hours by map quest, so about 24 hours in LMTV! But I enjoy every minute that I drive my truck/RV.

    M1078/M1079 for overland camper?

    Michael, Still love the build! I need to come up and check it out one of these days! Keep up the good work and say hi to the wife! You two are a great team and kick butt. However, let's wrap it up and go on a trip already SHEESH! LOL Eric

    Frame question??

    expeditionnw I like your comment. The older trucks only came green/black camo pattern (someone will say "no they didn't!) If you change the color you have already altered the truck and it's load carrying capacity. I painted mine white, so it should stop running and tip over any minute! Of course...

    Thinking about building a mold for a turret cover ?

    $800.00 ! Holy cow, maybe I will take mine off and sell it and just make my own also! Like selling blood or Kidney. Its just a big hole plug! LMAO

    I guess you just speak some gibberish and they will just give up and tell you to "just leave "meow", go "meow", Just get out of here "Meow!"

    I like the videos on the above truck. That couple reminds me of myself. I travel with my younger GF also. She keeps me young and healthy.
