    Deuce purchase issue in California

    I was adding that I talked directly to a Leo and he told me directly how him and the other officers around him would enforce such a situation. So yes it's a old thread, but I was adding current info to it. Still people will question the rules. I am driving out of class and have been for the...

    Deuce purchase issue in California

    Chp told me since there is not a section for historic tag vehicles in the vehicle code, historic registered trucks fall into the same guidelines as commercial. So 3 axles over 6000 lbs is minimum class B non commercial "being historic you cannot legally be commercial". Now I'm sure when someone...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Fired up the m818 today, and ran it around our property to get the oil flowing and stuff since she has been sitting for a while. My dad was trying to pull down a 100 foot pine tree that is diseased and threatening to fall over on our office (already had the top of it fall and put a hole in the...

    Broken Rockwell Axle

    All fixed, and so far the locker works great. The last pic is the 2 missing spider gears that were in the bottom of the housing. I had to scoop all the shrapnel out after draining the remainder of the gear oil. If I have to do this again, next time I will buy new nuts and studs to bolt the...

    Broken Rockwell Axle

    Price was right. Other than that it was one of the first things to pop up when I was searching for Rockwell parts, so I thought i might as well upgrade.

    Broken Rockwell Axle

    I decided to order a Yukon gear, grizzly locker instead of putting spider gears back in. Let's see how long it takes to break a stock 16 spline axle shaft now.

    Broken Rockwell Axle

    The rear most axle sitting on the tires with the weight of the truck on 395s barely rub. When off-roading they rub more.

    Broken Rockwell Axle

    I was gonna go with the ouverson 2" axles and locker kit, but I have a trip planned 2 weeks from now and need to get the truck up and running. Now that I know the weak link, I will be upgrading the axles in the near future.

    Broken Rockwell Axle

    I finally had time today to tear into the broken axle on the deuce. Man what a task that was to get the chunk pulled out. One of the shafts was wedged in the carrier, and I had to pry it loose and use a mallet to get it out. The chunk was really sealed with 20 years of paint and gunk. Once I...
