What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

[Another Ahab]

Yes, we've pulled many a white tail out w/ the CJ. We also sip the juice after the guns are put up and the sun goes down. No luck this past weekend, saw some small ones.

The very first rule of hunting AND fishing:

- You might SEE some small ones

- But the only ones you BAG are always the biggest!

Let's see here, uhm, this thread's all about hunting for 5 tons, right?

Hunting with 5 ton's! We have a 8 ft rule for rifles here in chowan county. So we use it as a mobile stand. Couple lawn chairs, put the shooting rail in the troop seat holes, and hang some break up fabric off it so the can't see you move. Works great around big open fields.

Go to any truck stop and pick up one for cheaper.

 

[grayparatrooper]

the whole hose with all that cheaper than $40

 

[EO2NMCB]

It maybe a few dollars cheaper at the truck stop, however the air hose and chuck do not have the built in air gauge like the military ones.

By the way the eBay link is a no no.
Against forum rules.

Nor are they as high quality!

Is 30ft good?

 

[gottaluvit]

Thats long enough considering there's a place to attach both front and rear. I was actually referring to quality. I got mine from hf and my truck came with a glad hand connector already connected. The inflater has a built in gauge but it is cheaply made and one can tell it wont last.

Installed my VIC-1. I have a two station unit at the moment, but plan on eventually making it a 4 station with a loud speaker and mic in the bed against the cab and another station with bail out cable and headset at the rear of the truck.

I bought one of those Wilton hitch mount vices. I'll probably never use this silly thing, but it is now in the truck box. Maybe I'll crack some walnuts with it at Christmas...

One must be very careful when cracking one's nuts in a vise or by any other method for that matter. Crack ONLY the shell and NOT the tender parts inside.



After all, it is within those little kernels wherein lies the seed of life itself.

By the way..... NICE VISE.















Carry on.

How much?

 

[mdemars03]

Got my sugar scoop and standoff bracket in today. Plan on installing it in the next day or so. Just need to find the mounting brackets to be able to set up my RT-524. After that I will start looking at paint.

 

[Schasta1]

Just got my m923. Looking to add led back up lights as well as 3 up front an 2 in bed area. Any helpful hints?

 

[galaxie428]

I installed a radio and a dome light this week. While I enjoy listening to the whine of the turbo, I have to have some music too. I just happened to have this speaker laying around that wasn't being used. It fit perfectly wedged between the wiper motors and the roof. It sounds surprisingly good for its size.

If it's Wilton, at least you know it's built right to last.
