    Camo Paint

    Before I camouflaged my jeep, I drank a 12 pack of bud light. It came out ok. That is all the advice I have.

    Is a Boyce m35 Bobber right for me?

    Check Check You'll want an M35A2 with the multi fuel engine and access to lots of waste motor oil. This is hyped up to be way more of an issue than it actually is. There has been a lot of testing on many vehicles and the results are conclusive. Vehicles will be mobile, but the systems...

    Muffler on a multi-fuel...?

    Per MasterChief's great instructions, I put on a Moroso muffler from Jeggs last weekend. Definitely a quieter ride. The girlfriend and I can talk in the cab now. I left the stack tall, re-using all of the factory pipe, so that might be making my cab quieter too. The stack is around even with...

    Package of ten 24v 194 type bulbs is $18 shipped from finditparts.com I ordered mine 11/16 and they haven't shipped yet though. Edit: After posting this I called them and it was delivered at my apartment today. They didn't email the tracking number for some reason. Napa had a few in the...

    Need help winterizing...and what is this air line?

    I see the hole in the water pump. I thought I was reading/seeing things about a threaded hole in the block on the driver side. Like this video here at 2:04 to 2:25 http://www.steelsoldiers.com/deuce/46541-understanding-cooling-system-relataion-block-heaters-video.html Edit...further reading...

    Need help winterizing...and what is this air line?

    I did a ton of searching and reading using the advanced search for instructions on putting the arctic grill on the front. Everyone says it is in a TM but for the life of me I can't find the instructions. Any help there would be appreciated. - Disregard, I see someone posted the specific TM...

    trip to Kublo's from Boston in M813 in the big snow storm of october

    Sounds like last winter when I drove to the Buffalo airport from Rochester, NY to pick up a friend and it was that one crazy storm they get every year that shuts down everything. I kicked my Jeep Cherokee in 4-hi and drove through 6" of snow the entire way. The plows couldn't get it off fast...

    Muffler on a multi-fuel...?

    I just ordered my Moroso muffler from Summit. Looks like you just slotted the muffler and slid it over the existing pipe?

    Cheap Replacement Battery Box

    Haha, I knew I posted this for a reason! I'll have to run a few holes in it next time I'm in deuce modding mode. I bet there is already some liquid in there from the extra large coffee I dumped in the cab due to lack of cup holders.

    Started filtering WMO

    You can see in the 2 attached pictures I rigged up a gravity feed WMO filtering system this weekend. I have an open top 55 gal drum up high with a 400 micron strainer in the top. In the drum are 2 super duper strong magnets next to the shower drain I put in the bottom. Directly below is a...

    Cheap Replacement Battery Box

    Cheap, free, borrowed, whatever. My battery box is about the only thing rotten on my truck (see picture). I got to thinking and did some measurements and found I had a heavy duty plastic tote that fit the bill as a replacement! The black plastic box is a shipping container used by a nation...

    Oversized cargo cover is on

    The inside of the cargo cover reads: "MS51323" "BENTZ MOBILE PRODUCTS" I found that MS51323 listed online as a cargo cover number it looks like but I don't know how to trace it back to the truck it came from...

    Poping sound when turning

    I noticed my truck makes some decent popping noises when I'm turning sharp and moving slow. I'll have to look into that soon but it could be the rear axles shuffling. It sounds like it's coming from right beneath me or just in front of me.

    Oversized cargo cover is on

    I got very lucky and had a cargo cover given to me by a fellow MV owner (I owe him 2 M135 super single wheels if anyone has a set for sale). He said he rescued a few of these from a dumpster a few years ago. I don't know what size truck this cover was for but it is way too long for mine. It...
