    my new addiction M1010 build

    The 887 faring install is too cool. Would like to see that. How do you access the storage?

    Kinda got carried away..... M1028 rebuild

    I would side on swapping inputs and a light rebuild. Another option is to pick up a used 208 or 241 and freshen up one of those. The 205 is stupid strong but the 1.96 low isn't the best and they are quite heavy. I have one here going in one of.my trucks that's getting a 4 speed. Later it will...

    M934 question

    Those are likely big A/C units. Plan on having 3 phase power to run them.

    Opinions on 24 Volt Instrument Lights

    I've pondered may different solutions on this but I'm going to try a different route here soon. I will be hot gluing EL Wire to the back of the metal light deflector that surrounds the gauges. Problem with EL is it's not that easy to dim. Should be an interesting experiment.

    Terminus M1009

    Lifetime warranty usually means you will spend a lifetime replacing them.

    New M275 in Arizona

    As the owner of a few of them, you will find them nice and compact for grocery store parking lots. Contrary to what one might think, groceries on the porch stay put pretty well.

    Looking at a '53 M108 Gasser

    That explains it Jon, was thinking I had the same vision issues as Chuck.

    tag a m116a-2 generator trailer

    I always take my bill of sale and a weight slip to the tax collector. There may be some issues if the local constable finds you telling fib about it being home made.

    Super clean. Boom supports are in the cab.

    Help on 5/4 ton CUCV purchase

    A/C would be a huge plus. All the other amenities are not as significant to me.

    Welcome - M1010 Audio Build

    How will you power 20,000 watts? There were some folks around here that ran megawatt cb radios. One guy in a suburban was running 8 alternators to provide power. He ended up installing a big block to keep from breaking the nose of the crankshaft. If you need that too, reconsider as the 6.2...

    Looking at a '53 M108 Gasser

    Their simplicity can't be overstated and I've lifted many a bed, shop van bodies and slung loaded an M715. It's no slouch but the outriggers will be needed.

    M1010 weird hum & vibration from motor

    That shift really needs to be completed in neutral. My SOP is to slow to a crawl, 2MPH or so, toss trans in neutral then shift transfer case while still in a slight roll. Makes the shift easily.

    Looking at a '53 M108 Gasser

    It's a great yard truck. Has no practical commercial purpose and collectors usually pay them little mind. I'd price my offer based on going rates for non running deuces or scrap prices. I paid $3700 for mine and it was running but not driving. Honestly, I paid too much but I'm sure I got that...

    Looking at a '53 M108 Gasser

    Should have no long lasting effects. Fresh and clean fuel system and she should be up and running.

    Door switch for courtesy on M1008

    When I did all the rear lights in my SECM, they were all LEDs. All have power all the time and circuit completed with the grounds. Not done yet but pin switches on all the compartment doors so that they have lights. Might as well add door pin switches.
