    As far as lights... I have a 24v to 12v resister from a CUCV (blazer/ pick up), that will power any lights etc.

    69 Jeep Kaiser bobbed wrecker

    It already has on board air, but with 2 small tanks... I could fairly cheaply add another tank for volumn. But a gas powered compressor would be better for CFM .... issue would be mounting/ storage.

    69 Jeep Kaiser bobbed wrecker

    Forgot to say, I've driven a PLS a bit in Iraq... one upgrade I would do is, power steering. That's a $1600 up grade. Unless anyone out there knows a cheaper way???

    69 Jeep Kaiser bobbed wrecker

    I'm sure anything is possible.... but in my opinion, the reason a deuce and a half had a 70 yr service life was its simplicity. Uncle Sam has an unlimited budget for maintainace. In my experience CTIS systems require a lot of maintenance. The last series of deuces M35A3 had CTIS.... but that...

    Filling the frame with expanding insulating foam?

    Some genius did this to one I got.... I'd say it didn't work.

    The wave

    I only wave if someone has done a serious mod or the jeep looks like it's been treated like the dirty dogs they are... I don't wave at the "new" jeeps cuz 99% of the time they dont wave. My wife thinks I should wave at them all so i have assigned her that duty.

    How capable is your build?

    I'm sure their a many mods and ways to do things... I like trying "save" things and use what i have. Some times all I have is time and ability. With that said, their are several vids on YouTube that show how to do something similar.

    How capable is your build?

    I'm running "mike" fenders... I had rot on both, and the drivers side was pushed in where it curves down and houses the front directional... it was a win win to cut them. If they came out like crap, I'd just get new ones... if they looked goid than i saved X amount not buying new ones. Wasn't...

    How capable is your build?

    4" lift w/ 33s... jeep is only as capable as its driver, no magic kit will rescue you from a bad move on the battlefield... doesn't hurt anything but the wallet I guess...

    Rear axle not centered

    It will move left, not "it will left" lol... sorry, its really early.

    Rear axle not centered

    As your suspension compresses it will left/ drivers side... if it was centered you would then have an issue with the right side hitting. Bigger tires usually means more width, so it will be closer than stock tires. If you are worried as i was, a small wheel spacer should solve it.
