New Build 5 ton

[NMDUECESWILD]

Here is the start of our build. I know it does not fit in with all the traditional MV but we are having fun with it. This truck will go to a local lake for pulling stuff in the sand and putting the boat in and out of the water. Thanks for looking.

NICE! should paint the 818 to match the boat hehe

We tried to but it ended up a little too orange. We are pretty much done, I will post more pics when I get them up loaded.

We brought the truck home, repaired the fuel system to eleimnate leaks and make it run, we removed the spare tire carrier and the right side fuel tank, washed the truck in and out (found a can of something growing in the heater hose probably a funny joke at one time but it took us a while to find the smell) painted the frame and under carriage flat black, installed new tire and wheels, Removed the seats, painted the interior grey, installed new suspension seats, Installed a new 18K electric winch, built new bumper over the existing bumper, built rails for new bed, new rear bumper and hitch, Procurred an M101 trailer, removed the bed, cut the fenders out, stretched it 3', built new fenders to fit our truck, new paint, LED head lights, HID spot lights, LED lights through out. Let me know what you think. Mor pics to follow

Got a real nice look to it, great skills you have there!

 

[dozer1]

Yep ..VERY nice work. You really went custom on it and in my opinion it worked very well.

SWEEEEET!!!!

 

[NMDUECESWILD]

Thanks guys, we wanted to do some performance stuff but we thought it would be more reliable the way it sits. Here is a pic of the box we put on the right side where the fuel tank was. the rest of my pictures are kinda rendundant.

I normally wouldn't like a "customized" MV, but the quality of work put into this truck is apparent. Well done, sir!

Really sweet, super singles, custom front bumper, tool box... Great job

 

[madmachinistm1a1]

That's the coolest looking 5 tonner Ive seen. Ausome job! What kind of seats did you use?

 

[buzzinhalfdozzen]

How long did it take you to swap out the wheel studs on the front?

 

[Danger Ranger]

Very intersesting. I can't decide if I like the front bumper or not, but you did a great job. I like the bed. Did you blacken the tires or what?

Looks great for what you use it for!

 

[Danger Ranger]

Oh, and what model winch did you put in there? (size, brand?)

 

[scrapdaddy]

Well, I personally think you guys did a great job. Any time it takes a major effort like that and it turns out good, says volumes of your abilities. Enjoy your truck!
