CWR has an armored tank for $1,450.00. The tank holds 32gallon. I have one on my truck and really enjoy the higher ground clearance on that side of the truck.

I can not imagine the idiot that would put enough water down the carb to do that much damage. The practice of dribbling water down the carb was done by a local tune up shop. My friends who worked there moved to ... you guessed it Colorado. I don't know if they still use that method but they are stil...

You are spoiling the surprise. I went with PS/2 and maroon shag carpet. It is all set off by the green led valve stem cap lights also.

I replaced all of mine with the marine breakers. I have had no problems to this point. I used a kind that required spade connectors instead of the eyelets. I have heard that there is a marine breaker out there that has the eyelet style. The stock breakers were mostly rated 8 amps. Here in AZ in the ...

I don't know about the whole plastic or ?, but the aluminum insulated top I made has worked out very well for me. I also used the awning system to attach it to the truck. The channel makes for a nice water tight seal and easily removable. I did make my reat top all one piece. I leave my sides on mos...

Dave Pardon my laziness but how does the 18oz compare to the original top material? Do you get as much flapping as with the sunbrella tops that were being made? When I put my sides together I used two 710 tops that had seen better days. I am at some point in time in the future going to remake it. I ...

What weight canvas did you get? I am assuming it was the same stuff from the hovercrafts.
The pics don't show how you addressed the passenger doors in the rear canvas.

I noticed you have not gotten around to fixing the side door yet.

iwanapinz you have a 712, just point and go. I would be carefull taking much advice from most offroad people. I know the 712 handles much different than a regular 4X and the 710 what an animal. If you really want to learn how to drive your truck properly, make it to one of the treffens. The RMP tref...

They also carry the rubber insert for the rail and the HH-66glue and thinner to work with the top along with the clear plastic to do the windows.
