I don't know. I have no idea what I am doing (literally) so I am learning on the fly. I got a quote for RORO assuming that it would be the cheapest option.
My rough calculations tell me that I will save ~$1K by reducing the height.
I was happy to see the radials. I will put...
Thanks
This **** rain....
Schools have been closed, streets flooded and junk yards are muddy. Though, I did tuff out the mud to buy three 50' slave cables and a level winder for a 5 ton winch. Rubber boots live in my jeep.
Thanks for the measurement. I looked but I guess not in the right...
All right RKIs I need to know the height of an M925 with 1100 tires with the top removed, windshield down and side rails off.
Anyone??

MRAP Seats
MRAP seats on a box bottom. LOTS of room and comfy. I tried a spring bottom, air bottom and box bottom. THe box bottom worked out best for me. Now I look through the center of the windshield (in the wiper path) instead of looking just below the wiper motot (out of the wiper path)...
Well I could not help it. I had to have the M925 w/w in HI. Now I need to get it home.
I have some guys on the ground in HI and CA that can help but I understand that a vehicle must have a current registration to be shipped out of HI.
I know some of you have done this. Did you reg the...
oops..
Sorry, that pic was one I photochopped to remove the step and box under the driver's door. To see what it will look like. The truck has the normal box and step.

OK I finally took the plunge and picked up an M931. Thanks Franz! Excellent guy to deal with.
Now the search for parts begins. Chris or anyone...

We are in
George and I are definitely in.
I will have the first run of deuce hitches available for sale. I have kept this under wraps but a major hitch company has worked with me to build a Class V+ hitch specifically for the deuce. I sent them a frame section and they designed the mounts...
hitch
Very nicely done. Will you please add a pic or two of the outside of the frame at the upper connecting point. Did you drill in the center of the four rivets?

Steve is a good guy
I know Steve at Dif Eng. He is an engineer with the common sense of an old school mechanic. He is a good guy and his products are first class.

Sounds like fun. Where does the 2012 trip start and end? I have spent a lot of time building a remote location camper out of a deuce. I am in.

Mini monster
The reason I ask is because I am contemplating buying a set to put on the bobber for a fundraiser for the museum. "monster truck" rides at local events would go over well but the 395s do not look like a tonka toy. The 48x31s will look the part.

OK...
Am I the only one that thinks this is OK? I have taken on eof my 105s beach camping several times with my diesel land cruiser. Ankle deep powder sand is no problem for the torqy diesel. It just chuggs along. Stopping if fine even on rocky roads.
