No I haven't rotated the tires yet. It's on the list. I'll post up my findings once I do. Thanks again everyone.

Thanks guys. Steering has been checked and it's relatively tight. The problem didn't start until I put on the "new" tires.

Hi everyone. I get a death wobble in my Deuce around 35-40 mph. Steering wheel shakes pretty hard but the truck doesn't wander. I'm suspecting it's the front tires; I bought a used pair of take-offs. They look okay but might be out of round or unbalanced. Question, can I swap the front...

I never had any trouble registering my Deuce and a half. In fact the State of Georgia thinks it's a pickup truck.

Any reason you can't just drive it? Looks like about 160 miles, none of it interstate. That would be an awesome ride. I drove my Deuce and a half from Dothan to Atlanta.

Welcome from Stockbridge.

Thanks Barrman. And everyone. I agree it's best not to flat tow or use a dolly, but this was going to be a matter of convenience and time saving. This truck was in Charlotte, so if anyone here is who bought it, looks like you got a good one.

Well thanks everyone. Truck is sold I don't even have to worry about it now. But the question was never answered. I have time to look it up in the TM now.

I'll be towing with an 02 Silverado 2500HD. The big thing is what to put the truck on. As I sit here waiting for people to reply not to use the tow dolly, I've decided I'm not going to use the tow dolly and go push something off one of my trailers and just use a trailer. It will be a big...

Hi everyone. This may be obvious to everyone but me so I'm going to ask. Ridicule is acceptable because I really should know this. I'm going to retrieve a CUCV Blazer about 4 hours from my house by interstate. The easiest form of transport is a tow dolly. If I tow the truck with the back...

I had State Farm for my Deuce until they changed my private passenger vehicle insurance to commercial. I said, this is a privately owned vehicle NOT being used for commerce of any kind. My agent said it doesn't matter, it's just because of the size of the truck. No thanks. Next thing you...

Welcome from Atlanta. I'm out that way from time to time, I'm a member of The National Automobile Museum.

Welcome from Henry County.

I believe the DRAKE, unlike the DUKW or the Super DUKW, had a tailgate that lowered for access to the bed. Don't know if it could be lowered while underway. Tried to watch the movie but it said an error occurred. I'll watch it later. Got to love the DRAKE!

Thanks guys. Obviously I need this to be hauled. And I agree about Clint. I've already asked him, he might be making plans to snipe me!
