    I own several military trucks, m35a2 deuce and half, m925 5 ton, m109a2 shop van, and i always hate seeing any military vehicles being chopped and hacked, but i have to admit, this turned out good and was kept close to original style, thanks. I like this show, not real flashy and Hollywood produced, just a real mechanic garage with real work, and zero drama.

      @@Gonzoitis in this video? That's a 10 ton. Old deuce and half's, old 5 tons and 10 tons uses the same cabs, different suspension and engines. My m925 5 ton uses a different cab, it's something like 16 inches wider and has tilt forward hood.

      @@curtisboswell2619 yes, 5 speed Allison, has nhc 250hp Cummins 855 , 14Liter, I love this truck, has only 20,000 miles, still has all under coating, when I got it I went completely threw it, all new brake shoes, air brake diaphragms, new bearings and seals in all axles, new coolant, fuel, and oil rubber lines, completely rebuilt engine because it says for so many years that the pistons had seized to cylinder liners that had surface rust, replaced water pump, alternator with an aftermarket because military ones are junk, replaced the starter with a faster gear reduction starter, and a long list of other things. Truck doesn't have any rust or dents. I could have probably drove it for years without replacing half of the stuff, but I wanted to make sure was completely safe, dependable and won't have to mess with anything for years. I drive it everyday like a regular truck, I love that truck.

    DUDE!!!!! You absolutely NAILED that quad conversion!!!!!! Owning and converting an old '95' or deuce & a half style military truck to a full on Camper has been a dream vision of mine for years! The air ride seats are a definite MUST HAVE to travel in comfort in one! GOD BLESS OUR TROOPS for enduring having to drive one without air seats! I have seen many elaborate military truck camper conversions, along with the fuel used to run them. There are several people that converted the trucks to using waste peanut oil from reataurants! They said it smells like french fries rolling down the road! I'm okay with that! Lol Again, GREAT VIDEO and JOB on this build! You have a new BIG fan here!!

No silly deadlines (except for the Riv build, but that deadline was legit. The car wasn't completed in time - but the show must go on). The fact that no profanity is bleeped and his temperament is always under control, and the humor is spontaneous is so refreshing.

    I was bad off for many years. I was told about a tablespoon of Camelina Oil in water before bed from a very knowledgeable person who for a few decades has always been spot on so I tired it. After the third day I hop right up out of bed and go outside to tinker and play with my dogs. I went to 10 minutes of groans getting up each day to able to sit right up, get dressed and go outside. I was bad off as in arthritis, gout and some bad joint damage over the years. Today if I do not over do it I am good. Nothing hurts. So much better than any of the kidney hurting meds I was prescribed for years. Just throwing that out there after seeing how bad this old move like I used to.

It's painted with cark paint cark paint is heavy with lead so that it's not picked up on radar. You weald that you grind that you sand whatever you're releasing lead into the air and you're breathing it.

    I would check into the dynamics regarding out the frame flexes during travel and why custom expedition builders DO NOT bolt the box onto the Frame, they mount it to a suspension frame that allows for flex underneath the box but it puts no stress on the box intself...I believe you will come to rue the day if you fasten the box directly to the frame....look into other expedition builds at the sub frame that absorbs the torsion and flex of the truck frame and -places no stress on the "Man Box"...just trying to help eliminate some problems down the road that could be easily addressed before you drop the Man Box on.
