It's really looking good!View attachment 626213 Dressed up to commemorate memorial day this past weekend
theeDiZ, was that a hit from the return leg of the Potomac Races?Installed an over head cabinet and finally got around to replacing my tach cable that broke on the ride back from a mini rally.
That stinks; I'm sorry that happened, and I kind of feel like it's my fault in a way.Yes ahab, lost the tachometer on the ride back.
You're right, Aussie; how is anybody not going to love the deuce-and-a-half!?

I got a case like that for my phone too:G'day everyone,.....
Here's a short vid I took testing out my new cheap Action Camera,.... the audio sucks since its inside its weather proof case,...

The images in the video are not really what I had in mind when I think of your part of the world....testing out my new cheap Action Camera...
This is the camera I got, (3 actually).The images in the video are not really what I had in mind when I think of your part of the world.
That road could easily be mistaken for many in rural locations in the USA. Our 'eastern woodland'
environments can have a similar appearance.
Thanks for the post!
BTW... the video is not bad! If you don't mind my asking... what's the make and model of your camera?
Looks like you had a fun day. The air tool oil you added, did you put that just into the wiper pistons or somewhere else in the system?G'day everyone,....
As you can see,.... people just love the Deuce and want to have their picture taken with it,....

Took us about 20 mins to get directions to where they wanted what we had dumped.
Everyone asking, "where did ya get it,.... How much did it cost,.... What ya doin with it?,..... Can I have a drive?,....."
They all loved the sound it makes,.....
Finally got it all dumped.
And then went for a drive back home the long way back, did about 150-180klms for the day.

Nice vid! Sure didn't look like that where I lived in Woomera. Reminded me of Germany with the tall trees & lots of moisture. The Deuce made it that much better. Amazing how well the case filtered out the engine noise. It sounded no louder than my wife's Honda. That is a good sign for when I film the road trip home when I get mine (now pushed to "fall").G'day everyone,.....
Well there are some pretty sick people out there!,...

I've since changed the exposure settings so the next one shouldn't have the colour looking washed out,...
Aussie.
Get yourself a Bluetooth headset. (Snorkeling is probably out though!)I got a case like that for my phone too:
- I can drop it from six feet and take it snorkeling.
- But I can't use it as a phone; nobody can hear me.
I didn't think to ask about that when I bought it, and the sales guy didn't volunteer it.
There sure are some straight shot roads out your way Down Under, AB!
The air tool oil you added, did you put that just into the wiper pistons or somewhere else in the system?
I did notice a picture in there from working on your rear driver side wheels & saw the bottle Jack under the differential housing. Is that a safe Jack spot? I thought I had read on here somewhere that putting the Jack there could dent the bowl (sorry if I have the name wrong) & cause gear clearance problems. I could be wrong so wanted to ask.
I've been working as much as possible on my deuce to get ready for the trip west, but I'm going to miss my mark and... That is a good sign for when I film the road trip home when I get mine (now pushed to "fall").
I like the idea of burning out their retinas ! I once had Air-Craft landing lights on my truck. So when some low-life refused to lower their high-beams I flashed the landing lights at them. That got their attention real fast ! Of course it is totally illegal to have those on your vehicle ! The police in my area got wind of a truck with illegal lights on it so I removed them before I got in deep doo-doo !I did some pmcs to mine in prep for Haspin.
I can't tell you how long the speedo has been inop! Westy gave me the T-case adapter I needed last year, so it was installed today. It even works with the A3 dash I put in.
The A3 dash uses an electronic tach, so I swapped that out for my stocker. Some how I busted it, one call to Real Custom Trucks had me setup and working!
I also got some lights from a landmine truck early this year. I spliced those in with the brights on my LED head lights so now if I get brighted, I'll burn their retinas out!
I got some work done on my bed crane, tomorrow I'll find out if the wireless remote works.
