I've bought GP items in 3 states, including one with no sales tax and each time they charged the local sales tax where the yard was located. Knowing one auction didn't include sales tax made a difference in how much I was willing to bid. If you have a MT LLC and are registered with GP and...

With a more serious effort I reduced the db in my Deuce from 105 to 50.

Might want to wear a mask when you clean that stuff out. Ever heard of hanta? Stuff can kill you in 24 hrs.

Little late, but I just got X doors from WKS, and I have a helmet top from Amtec (now McClarin). Did a dry fit when they came and they fit very well. And my top was made a little crooked. Edit: I feel I should edit this reply. It should be noted that the clearances of the doors are pretty...

Any vehicle registered in any state, can be driven in any other. Getting it licensed is the easy part, getting it insured is tougher. Probably the most common state tag for humvees is Montana. You can save yourself some money and fill out and file all the forms yourself. All the forms are...

I rarely make it into this sub, generally spending my time in either the Deuce or HMMWV areas, which are what I have. Either vehicle is constantly being worked on, but I'm really hoping to have the hmmwv "done" by Spring so I can turn my attention back to the truck.

I only know what I've read. I didn't try moving it myself, and took the manufacturer at their word Legacy 4 Door - McClarin Composites Keep in mind, the crated weight is over 800 lbs. The one in the picture, in the link is the model I have, except I only have the toolbox on the driver's...

IF you have a shop capable of doing a swap (you'll need space (covered) for longer than you'll expect and something like a forklift or a tractor, and at least 1 helper, though not all the time), expect to spend a few (or several) thousand on top of whatever your 6BT engine cost is because of...

Unless you're made of money, the fuel savings on the Deuce vs a 5 ton is substantial. I have taken my Deuce on a few (500+ miles) trips, and have been prepping it for world travel. Also, once you move into the 5 ton area, you may run into CDL issues. The only real caveat I have on the Deuce...

It's over 400 lbs, according to the manufacturer. That's a pretty serious lift.

I've been thinking about installing a cut off on the fuel line to use as an anti-theft device. Now, it'll have another use.

Contact Steve Mikes at McClarin, smikes@mcclarincomposites.com He's their Military Sales Manager, 717.680.2039 I found email works best. The install kit isn't cheap, always seems the way when you're buying military parts. My canvas top was on it's last legs. No way it would last out the...

Probably the hardest thing is how to get it on you humvee. If you can get enough people together. I saw one post on SS where one guy used various jack stands. My mechanic has a serious engine hoist, which is what he used. Both sides of the top have "D" rings that can support its weight. I...

I came across one, for sale in Phoenix. Think I saw it on Facebook Marketplace for $2500, and there's was one for sale in the Carolina's also for $2500. Problem is getting them to me. Phoenix is a 24 hr drive, each way from my place. Even flying down, renting and driving back had its...

Over 700 miles, round trip. 2 fuel stops, 2 meal breaks, 2 dog breaks, 1 mountain pass, 1 shortcut (got lost in the clouds), 4 naps. Didn't really think about loading a 85" wide top behind a vehicle that is 71" wide. My rear view and passenger mirror were useless and I only sort of had some...

HaspLock | MUL-T-LOCK I got them a few years ago, they're from an Israeli company and mostly used in Europe. I found them for a pretty good price on Evilbay. All the lock suppliers in the US want like $250 for them. Search for either "mul-t-lock hasp lock" or "mul-t-lock hasp lock diamond"

It's a slippery slope. I still look at the occasional hmmtt or mk23 auction and wish.

Easy to run out of room.

No sparks for me. Was using a small wrench, one spark maybe, then pretty colours, then white, then the middle disintegrated and I had a gap in my wrench set.

Nice looking truck. I don't often come into the regular Deuce thread as mine left that world long ago. If you want to experience the Dark Side of Deuce ownership, visit the "Deuce Modification" sub. Oh, and now that you've got your Deuce are you ready for your hmmwv?
