    M275 recovery, now rebuild 8/11/15 update

    Nice purchase. I just noticed your location is DeSoto. You might be just down the road from where I work, at one of the businesses in Perimeter Park, that industrial park near the Sonic at the intersection of 83rd Street and route 7.

    russianmilitarytrucks.com

    There is a website similar to Steel Soldiers but dedicated to surplus Soviet military vehicles, russianmilitarytrucks.com. It is fun to look around there, they have a manuals download section, a forum, and many photos. I discovered it accidently and do not know more about it.

    making small batches of custom parts

    I suspect, based on the many previous discussions here at Steel Soldiers on these subjects, and the scarcity of original kits, that these would, by far, be the most popular kits which you could create for the deuce: - A fording kit. - A split-brake system kit - The bumper-mounted crane. You...
