Maybe a waterproof zipper option, with an increased price of course - they're expensive for zippers.

If you want a stock winch, you might also check with Idaho Motor Pool, I know they've had them in the past.

Thought I'd bump this thread as I'm gonna be replacing the glass in my cab with...something. I'm talking to a glass shop on Wed, but wondered if anyone might have an updated opinion about what's out there? I expect to take this thing deep into the bush, and right now I just want something...

No, I'm talking about replacing the cab with another cab this is essentially a copy of the existing cab but for the modifications I listed above. I'm not extending the floor space or making that part bigger, just the ceiling height (now I'm thinking about 6 inches just to make it a little...

I've had a list of things I've wanted to do to the deuce since I bought the thing and I've just taken the first big step and hired a guy to rebuild the cab from the doors up. It's essentially just gonna be a copy of the existing cab with some modifications. I've decided to make the cab 4...

I'm thinking of mounting a 81 gal fuel tank from a M939 on my deuce. I'm trying to figure out the total space and I think mine might be tight. I wonder if anyone's that got one mounted could tell me the width - from the frame to the outside of the tank (that is, the tank with the brackets)...

Well, it's a: Jump N Carry, JNC1224. This site has a pretty good description of the stats: https://www.asedeals.com/store/jump-n-carry-hand-held-battery-jump-starter-jnc1224/#tabSpecs I just read the reviews and figured if it can start a semi it should work for a deuce. I might let me...

What do you want to know? I first saw it on Amazon, read the reviews, mostly used by semi-truck drivers - pretty much what I wanted to hear. Haven't used it myself, just got it. Expect to spend $300+ on one of these.

Got serious about a jump starter. Technically, it could be used for other things, but there's no way I'd buy something this serious if I didn't own something big enough to require it. Quick stats: 3400 amp - 12v; 1700 amp - 24v If you're looking for one, consider ebay, this one was about...

I'm not particularly concerned about my personal safety anymore than I normally am when traveling. I think I will have to do a lot of research before taking this thing to Europe. I'm good at research and bureaucracies - something I get paid to do. I know I won't be able to drive it in...

If I lived my life doing what others would or wouldn't do it wouldn't be my life, and I wouldn't have bought a deuce to begin with nor would I have done half the things I've already done. The truck and camper will be armoured against small arms fire - using polycarbonate for this including the...

Anyone have any tips on driving the deuce overseas? I already know that there are lots of city streets that this thing won't fit, especially in older cities. Preliminary plans are to bring a motorcycle, park and drive the bike when I get to a place I where I want to spend time. And I'm not...

I guess that's not bad, I know of a place that sells them that won't even ship because they say it's too high.

There was a thread on here about a guy who built the cab by with new steel - it's my inspiration for a new cab. The hardtop I got now is pretty flimsy, no way it can support weight. I want it strong enough to support a person climbing on it. Even if you can find a top in fiberglass, you'll...

Break down next time in a more heavily populated area, kk, thx.:razz:

Just your typical day of doing chores around the house... Had been storing a spare engine in the truck, moved it to a pad that's going to become a new workshop that I'll build around the engine. Just in case anyone's wondering, it's been 26 days since I poured.

Don't know if you've already done this so I'll just throw it out there. Have you contacted any other places that sell some of the unusual military vehicles? I was thinking about Idaho Motor Pool. Now, he (presume it's a "he"), doesn't have any tanks but occasionally has an APC. I gotta...

Try evil-bay. When I bought them last year, there were 2 sellers, one was less expensive than the other.

Right, but bottle jacks can fail, and really jack stands don't - this is why people use jack stands as backups. It looks like your jack stand is on the bare dirt.

Steel is too heavy for my purposes. I thinking more along the lines of fabric. I'm aware of how expensive this could get, which is why it's down the road. There are also some alternatives to the tech that are always developing. My advantages are that the material can be bulky, but I need it...
