I finally got a tag for it and took it out for a real drive. It moves pretty good. I have a feeling the pump is turned up a little, which is good and bad. I will take it out tomorrow with the gps and see what it is running on the highway. I'm not sure if the dual exhaust makes it louder or...

OD iron wheels. Bought them from OD iron last February. For what it's worth, in the future I will go back to using my home made two piece wheels. I just like not having to try and inflate a tubeless tire this big. Takes a lot of effort. Sure you can plug the tire and go, but you have to...

Well, you inspired me (and I wish I didn't do it, but I did). I spent way too much money and time on these puppies. Joe

Sorry folks, but I have been busy and I finally finished most of the truck today and just had time to put it on ebay. Here's what I ended up with. First off, I read where Wreckerman wanted to put dual exhaust on a bob deuce and I thought that would look nice. BIG MISTAKE. I spent most of the...

Here's my take. First off, my money, my decision. Second, I love driving a bob deuce over a regular. I estimate it will haul 2 tons of cargo, but only has the wheel base of a long bed pickup. Easy to steer too. As for comparing with any other vehicle on the road, you can still by a 72'...

I'm headed out the door but I'll post more info tonight. It's the small M101 trailer.

The lights are the common trailer lights you get places for $6, cut down a little with 24 volt bulbs in them. The wheels are OD Iron. I picked them up last year at the Florida rally. I also wanted to keep it as short as possible so it would park most anywhere. It steers so much better than a...

Well, I have almost finished by BOB that I have been working on for a year. I wanted something different so I put a generator trailer bed on the back and added smooth solid sides. I had a M105 bed on it and just didn't like it. I hate the way the back finders sit higher and are so small. I...

That is true, but I would rather bob a truck than change all the fluids and grease everything. WITH THE RIGHT EQUIPMENT it isn't too much work. I have all right stuff and I can remove the factory bed and remount the axle in half a day. It's the new bed, painting and stuff like that I hate to...

Not trying to promote myself here, well actually I am, but I hope to have one for sale by the end of the week. No where near you but it will be in the classified. For what it's worth, everybody and their dog is bobbing deuce's and trying to make an unholy amount of money selling them (I like...

OK here's what I want to know. This is obviously a messed up auction. But what is really going on here? I had assumed the high bidder was a friend and the object was to bid until the number 2 guys got out bid but not before the reserve was met. That way the seller didn't have to pay ebay and...

I don't want to take away from your efforts, but since I was happy with my 12v/24v set up I thought others might want to know of other ways to do it. I put a hummer alternator on my deuce in place of the original, three regular batteries in the box instead of two 6TL's and used the 12 volts to...

OK guys, I have removed the generators from the trailer and all the stuff that came with them. It appears it was a complete set up with the box to switch between the two gens. Anyway if any of you guys are interested I will put all the stuff I don't need in the classified in a week or two...

The auction I am referring too ends in two days and is titled " LOW MILEAGE 2 OWNER 5 TON 6x6 DIESEL CARGO/TROOP TRUCK". I saw it and the price is at least 2 times what it should be and that hasn't "met reserve". He even states it has a "full" diesel engine and the picture shows an old...

OK, first off, I haven't been on here much for several months and I thought there was an Ebay auction forum last time I was looking around. Is it gone? In fact I was looking for a thread I posted last year about having my M813 on ebay and I don't see that either. Was all that stuff deleted...

I'm glad you mentioned that. I was wondering about that because there is a slave cable port and it appears to only have one battery. I think both have a battery in them but I'm sure it is old and worthless. Thanks, Joe

$1314.00, which I guess is what they were worth today to me. I had hoped to get them for less, but one other guy wanted them too. That's all it takes.

I just won the auction on two (on one trailer) mep 701a's. I paid two times what I wanted to, but I really wanted them and the trailer. I plan to put the tires on my dodge. I have plans for everything. Anyway I have been reading on here about some of you guys' generators and it would appear...

I hate to point out the insane, but your friend should get 6 of those low profile 20" tires that I see on really sad crown vic's around here and mount them on 6 deuce wheels, park his truck (couldn't drive it like that) and spend about 2 hours a day raising cain at town hall about the H1 until...

I have been real busy with work for the last few months and did not notice any activity on this thread. I appreciate the info. I have sat a goal of working on the half track over the Christmas holidays and hope to have it move on it's own power. I don't intend to hack up anything so I can't go...
