A couple years ago, I bought a 5-ton with the intention of turning it into an expedition vehicle (like a lot of the people who buy them).
Most find out quickly that they are uncomfortable, because of the seats and the heat, and change their mind and wind up rarely driving them.
The first step in doing this, is making the cab comfortable, or you will never want to go anywhere. So, I’ll start with a list of what I have done to make it a practical vehicle to drive.
It’s a 1990 M923A2. It was a depot rebuild, meaning the military did a complete punch list on it and fixed everything broken, worn out or rusty. It’s in excellent shape.
I’m 6’0” to give the size some perspective. These are way bigger than the deuce.
