Mines gonna be similar but with a twist...maybe if all goes to plan.
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
Kinda' like this...Have another storage box on the way. I will mount it above the box next to the exhaust. This will give me the added room for the extras needed for towing/recovering vehicles.
Man, great minds think alike. I have a used USGI and a brand new Blitz jerry can holder just waiting in the project queue to be painted and mounted. With the narrower 809 cab, I was able to mount one in front of the lower tool box. I aslo mounted one on the right rear mud guard, but I use that only for a water can due to safety concerns. So, two on top of the tool/utility boxes would give me a total of five.I'm also thinking about putting a couple of gas can holders on top.
I don't think my rubber mud flaps are up to holding much
Of the many mods and bobs that I've seen here, few have such pleasing proportions and intentional assemblage as what you've remanufactured.Got the other storage box and have it mounted. Lots of places to put stuff now !
My next project will probably be a 24v to 12v converter hooked up to a power plug for gps and other needs.
Do you have plans to move the batteries outside the cab. I know some of the 939 owners here have different setups to accomplish the move. I personally wouldn't want the batts riding inside with me.I won't be doing the battery box upgrade. It puts the box too low to the ground. My truck will see some off roading.
With the batteries in the cab it makes it very easy to add accessories with an in line fuse for protection. I have a solargizer, battery tender, dome light and soon to add a 24v to 12v converter so I can have power for a gps or cell phone etc.
The metal spacers are actually trailer axle clamps. I wanted a little space between the boxes.
