Has anyone added read shocks to their deuce? I'm talking about trucks that have NOT been bobbed.

Come on guys - somebody's got to have a hardtop for sale. I can drive to pick one up from anywhere on the west coast and I'm willing to pay fair value. I need to build a roofrack for my motorhome conversion ASAP and I can't start that until I have a top on the truck.

How did that double check valve work out?

I'm really interested in this too. Today I took out the air tanks on my M109 so I can put a water tank where they were (air tanks are going up on top of the roof). So this has got me thinking about what I would have to do to upgrade to a dual-circuit braking system.

My only concern would be possible interference at full-lock. If that's not an issue, you're set.

What kind of money are the Canadian deuces going for?

I'm glad to hear you were able to get permission to take them out of the country. I'm building an M109 motorhome conversion right now, and I'd like to take it south (further than Mexico) sometime.

Isn't exporting one of these vehicles specifically prohibited by our government though?

The question is, Did you need the sand?

Did you leave it there?

Anybody have a source for these on the west coast? Just wondering if they're available and what they're going for.

Cool. Thanks for sharing.

I will. I'm going to start a build thread on the truck and trailer. Just want to get things a little bit further along so that I'll have some real progress to share with you guys. Right now it's just a bunch of parts in a pile.

Yup. it's a 70.

Just thought I'd post an update as I'm working through this project. I ended up buying a 14ft uhaul truck for $650. Had to drive to Boise to get it, but the box is almost perfect to set on top of the M353 trailer chassis. I decided to go with a little bit smaller box than I was originally...

Still looking for a hardtop. Anybody got one in decent shape that they wouldn't mind parting with?

I redesigned the lower bracket and tool the files to a local sheetmetal shop to get a quote, but before I can have any parts made I need to decide what size/type of chain to use. Is there any chain that is common the military applications that it would make sense to use here? Maybe like the...

How can you identify an LDS engine?

The dash grab gar out of an old Jeep (CJ5/7/8) would work great. I just found one sitting in my garage that I've been meaning to install in mah deuce.

I don't think tire clearance is any different on these, is it? I mean, compared to the old M35's.
