http://www.steelsoldiers.com/deuce/73670-question-about-cargo-racks-troop-seats.html The powers that be will tell you that the search function is your friend. It is. Havind said that, any good hardwood should work, although oak is most likely what was used because of availibility and...

VERY NICE!! I'm going with the same color and lettering. I'm using Rapco spray cans as I'm doing it piece by piece. I like the LED's too.

The best I can figure is that the Army decided that since they weren't the Navy, and their vehicles don't have to float, it doesn't matter if they all leak like a sieve. :?

There's a fuel tank in the classifieds for only $200. That's cheaper that buying Jerry cans and fabbing a bracket. 2cents

PM sent, I'm pretty close to you. I REALLY like beer. Good beer though, not the stuff Gimpy drinks. (unless it's free:-P)

I'm thinking maybe a shroud for a heater??

If it helps, I've got PLENTY of parking space for MV's.:mrgreen:

That might be the one Gimpy mentioned.

No, did'nt sell it, traded for some stuff I needed. And yeah, now that I have the bed off, I'm going to get after some of the stuff that needed attention. I pulled the brake cable because it was frozen, I got a new one to go in. I'm going to power wash the truck and paint, hopefully at least...

Well here's an update! Eagle4g63 stopped by this morning and we pulled the bed off of my truck and got 'er up on his. Only had to use the sawzall once. :-P As usual with anything I do, it took a little longer than I thought, but got done in time for me to pick up the kid from marching band...

For supplies, a deuce would be good. For personnel, I don't think current standards would permit it, no seatbelts, no ROPS. Now I'm not familiar with the wildfire side of firefighting, but from what I know from the structural side, I can't see them permitting it. Rollovers are a common source...

That reminds me of the 5 ton wrecker we had in my old NG motor pool. It was a '54 with a gasser motor. We towed that POS more than any other vehicle in the motor pool, and we had a huge motor pool. It was the only gas truck we had, everything else was diesel. (excepting the 880 series pickups.)

It won't be irrelevant when someone else who uses the SEARCH function finds this thread and sees info regarding their state within THIS thread. :roll:

It says "Made in USA" on the container. DOUBLE WIN!! But good reminder to look for the where it's made tag, I try to buy "Made In The USA" whenever I can. The politicians aren't going to fix that problem, it's up to US.

Beds aren't particularly heavy, so a homemade spreader should be able to perform that duty without too much problem. Just make sure all the individual componets are well within the capacity for what you are lifting.

Personally, I think "dum" was worse. :roll: But good to see another Ohio guy anyway!

I live in Ohio and I bought a truck without a title. (Despite what some people say, I couldn't lose on THIS deal) I was told to send a letter to the BMV explaining the details of how I got the truck and then I'd get a letter from the BMV enabling me to go to the county common pleas court to...

I'm not much of an A3 fan, but it's nice to see another Ohio member! Welcome to the sickness.

Yes, I had to use it on my old Cummins several times when I had a fuel line problem.

Getting a deuce stuck is probably more due to a lack of lockers and poor traction than being underpowered. Most stuck deuces I've seen were still able to spin the tires, they just couldn't get any traction.
