Here are more of the pix. And a couple of Oso's truck.

Well that pesky lad -that goes by srodocker- was fishing for folks to come over to the XXX Rootbeer Drive-in in Issaquah for a car show to benefit the Northwest Burn Foundadtion. So the first thing I thought was road trip.:driver: The show was for Emergency, Service & Military Vehicles. So I...

I like it, but there definitely should be pictures of the processes, because I confuse easy.

Do you have a picture of it in action?

Pretty tight looking truck there CB. Nice upgrades. Awesome job.:drool: Be sure to put down those plastic floor and seat covers that the Jiffy lube places uses so you don't mess up the interior.

Not that far yet, I haven't even pulled her into the shop yet, I am still working on my 5t bob and cab stretch project, then comes a new top for the convertible and getting my NW rally vehicle painted. Then the DUKW can see the shop.

Ryan, Thanx for the pix. I was going to have that done at the truck stop when I had all of my DUKW towing problems but thought that would make the fingers of the toggles to thin. But now I will just get another set of 5 ton shackles and do the same. As for the steering wheel, not quite yet...

Ryan, Very nice rig. Some day.:drool: Can you grab a close up pic of the tow bar connection to the DUKW shackle? Mine was missing the shackles when I bought it and it towed like crud. Kept trying to pass me on the way. Finally had to have it flat bedded home. Thanx.

Well then I will hi-jack the thread and ask Westech you made +4778 posts in one year :beer::beer::beer::beer::beer::beer::beer::beer::beer::beer: Yep 10 images!

Very, very nice.[thumbzup] I assume the grid of holes over the driver's seat is for toggle switches to control the lights and other things. Who or what are the light fixtures from? So to make the holes have that lip do you drill a hole then use a dimpling die in a press?

Scott, I am torn. It is a MV. Fire Truck show. What should I bring? The 5 ton or the Unimog Fire Truck. Don't say both, cause I don't know how the towing laws work in WA with regard to total weight. Are you going to wrangle Brad out there for the event? I needs to plan me a break. I have...

M66 is OK, but some sort of automated flails, mounted on the four corners just above the bumpers, would do us all more good than the wasted ammo from the .50 cal.

If you do a 5T go with an older multifuel version then you can run WMO or ATF. I think on the Cummins you can mix 50/50 or better w/ diesel.

Well I think you were give a bill of goods by the P.O. on the prisoner transport story. They knew you wouldn't have bought it if you knew, that in fact, the deuce is outfitted with a zombie proof cargo cage. Used for moving civilians to safety thru the zombie crowded streets as well as...

In the 5 ton I use the fight com DX head sets with noise canceling mics and the 400-st box. Like has been said previously, it has an aux in for radio.mp3/cell phone. But new on the market that is pretty great is the blue link BLULINK Right now I am trying to wire up my 400-st to go thru the...

RGS20inophir Nice truck. Congrats! If you post your pictures on the Steel Soldiers site they will always be on the Steel Soldiers site. So that if 10 years down the road you have decided to move your pictures to SnapGoogleFishHotComPix, some newb won't be disappointed when they look up this...

Woo Hoo!!!:jumpin: We are up to 48 votes on the pole. And it is easy to see who the MV purists are.:grin: But alas, none of the other gull wing owners have chimed in with any answers. So hopefully the support will start flowing otherwise I will just go with my favorite paint scheme that I...

Mike/wsucougarx, I put a sugar scoop on my front passenger side bumper when I first got my deuce. And I think you are right that that is the best place to locate it on the gull wing, although I haven't seen a picture of a gull wing with an antenna. On a semi-related note, I have some M109a3...

109a3 was what I was thinking also. Now I need to find one wrecked with good windows for cheap. Amazing this thread has 404 views with only 39 folks voting. I know that more than 10% of the population has an opinion. Heck, people are always telling me what they think I should do. rofl...

Scott - You are always welcome. But wait for it to get a little warmer and not so windy. But beware, in addition to letting you drive and climb over all the rigs, I will put you to work on one of my many projects I still have to do. I want to bring them all over to the rally. I need to...
