Leakey TX Mystery Ops Jade Helm 24

Drove the ol girl on a 500 mi round trip to a team shoot last weekend. 8.5 hard miles with 9 shooting stages. We got 13th out of 56 teams. Dog bone came off on front side and plowed into the ground, luckily I was driving into the camp. Did a field repair and walked her home. She ran very good...

Thanks @chucky I am just fillling holes to see how everything will finally end up and use stuff that is readily available and repurpose stuff and utilize every sq inch I can wisely. I think I will put a grinder toilet beside the sink with a curtain around it and use an outdoor shower instead of...

Ya sent it off to get milled and a tune-up. Very happy with it. Red dots are the best for old tired eyes hehe

Progress report 10-17: Overheating issue resolved, Drove 200 mile round trip last weekend ( Sunday afternoon was pusing 100 ambient) no issues. Tstat was broken in open position and replaced, Replaced the radiator with the one that was on the red deuce, it was NOS and had been replaced recently...

A little more headway this weekend, I found a big spreader bar and we have a big skytrack at our work, I am seriously considering lifting the box off so I can paint between the cab and box. I think I counted 8 bolts or so on each side. might not be too big of an ordeal. Brakes are still an...

Ty. Wish I was with the. When they cut them out. But it is what it is. As long as it doesn't leak I'm good with it.

Glad to meet you dr3d Sir. Actually one of my uncles had the blacklight poster (my avitar) from back in the day and my grandfather found it and put it in his bathroom when he built it. He was my hunting buddy and he said it reminded him of me, (I have a sitting still problem) hehehe. I got the...

Roof done for now. Haven't water tested yet. Windows came in last week. Last shoot this weekend and hopefully will get some faster progress soon. Pulled seats from red truck and had radiator cleaned hoping to solve overheating issue. Planning on raptor line whole truck sand color with black body...

Good morning everyone. We finally got off high center and back to moving forward on the Roost. The deuce and 5 ton wheels were all broken down and deuce wheels and rings sandblasted, wire brushed, primed and painted. we had to repaint when mounted on truck, I tried to rattle can the hubs, studs...

Drove the ol girl 325 miles 7.5 hrs one way to and from West Texas for a run. She did great and I cannot wait to get the 109 up and going. So much more room than the M725 to stretch out and be comfortable. The weather was amazing, 80's during the day and 37 at night. Great bunch of people and...

Yes thats the plan, asset not a liability. We have a nite shoot next weekend at Precidio, Gonna run white lite on my SBR and 34. NODS are a little out of my budget right now.

I found an OWB that I liked but no light so I pull it off and bought an OLITE warrior 3 to carry with my spare mag. It will burn facial tissue and through eye lids at 30 yards hehe.

Good morning everyone, still pounding the courses but trying to get some green progress done. Went to Arkansas last weekend and had a great time. I bought a tan canopy for the deuce fropm a brother green owner to find out I already had a green one in my stuff from that I thought was for a...

I am going to see if I can make a field trip with my grandsons when it warms up. They have some nice old stuff scattered around the base too I was noticing.

its healing up nice. thinking when it hit it jearked it down fast enough to cause a lot of friction. Wondering if @chucky has had any similar experiences! hehehehehehehe

A little eye candy from last week job walk at Ft. Hood.

Had a great weekend despite a little body damage to myself. Procured some G177s for the 109 and finished welding the structure supports for the roofing. Got her back home and ready to figure out how the roofing and side trim will actually work out. Body carnage acutally looks worse than it...

Beautiful truck and welcome. Looking forward to seeing your build.

Yes I have 2 gal at my office for the ambulance. It is good stuff.
