Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
I finished rebuilding my troop seats and headache rack on the bobber. My Brother's shop sanded them down and finished them with spar varnish last week. I also fabbed up a fuel cap lock using a design I saw on Steel Soldiers as a start. Lastly, I straightened out and repainted my aluminum boarding ladder that I ran over a couple of weeks ago while turning the truck around in the yard. We have a car show benefiting The Wounded Warrior Project this Saturday. I'll be taking my M38a1 too.
Not at all - I got the fuel cap idea off of here. My Brother owns a body shop and has refinished a few older trucks with oak beds that turned out great with the spar varnish. We were shooting for a customized original looking resto on this truck with a few modern conveniences (yet to come). We think the natural oak does compliment the tan too.Thanks for the pictures, hope you don't mind if I borrow some of your ideas; especially the locking gas cap & spar varnish refinished troop seats. That wood really lends itself to a personal touch.
Are the U-joints actually bad?I replaced my transmission output and transfer case input seals. I also installed new u-joints on the drive shaft that connects them. Our test drive was a success. I hope to replace the other two transfer case seals and the remaining four u-joints soon.
