True. If you get a 3k$ A3 it'll likely be a pile of rust with a hole in the engine. You can buy them day and night for 15k on epay, not recommended though. He asked about the top speed, not the cruising speed. The truck will do 60, top speed. The engine isn't going to be happy about it, but...

About 8-10. About 55-60. Because you have to cut up 3 A2 to make 2 A3s, buy a CAT engine, and allison transmission and install a unreliable CTIS setup. Diesel only. No. 3000-15000$. Depending where you get it and what quality. More, parts for the CAT cost more, and god help you if you...

Gasoline on a rag, propane from a torch, WD-40.... The only think I wouldn't start a diesel with is ether. It can do some bad things to a diesel, it's too volatile and expands before top dead center.

The best way to winch backwards is with multiple snatch blocks as shown in the picture. You can always attach more cable if you are creative. Presumably if you welded roller fairleads to each axle and the bumper you could go under without damaging the cable, however that would require some...

You shouldn't have even bothered to post this. People love a good reason to flame other on the internet, there's no better reason to light the fires than in the name of safety. Anyone who has ever looked at a brake post should know that, maybe search next time time and read the other flames...

I just bought a transmission from Boyce, it came quickly, and was flawless, I would recommend them for your heavier parts, they price reasonable as far as I can tell.

Man, this is the second or third deuce I've seen lately with a giant hole in the side of the engine... Making me a little worried....

That image is creepy... Something must have been on an acid trip when they though of that.... I was thinking about adding remote breather lines yesterday. My FJ has remote breathers for the transmission, transfer case, front diff, and rear diff, and they are just lines connected to one way...

Thats a pretty cool idea...

Paper gaskets are good and fast, but aint cheap. Sealant is good and cheap, but aint fast. Gasket material cheap and fast, but it aint good.

It's not about which is easier to take off, but which is cheaper to put on. Is there a place where you can get those paper bastards for less than 2.50 a pop?

RTV 3 Color Camo

I'm just curious on how many people seal up their axles and flanges with the paper gasket that sell for about $2.50 or if everyone uses some kind of sealant? The first time I pulled my axles to check my brakes I reused the paper gasket, and it leaked, then I made a gasket with gasket material...

It would have made it without the wood easy. Put the wood in front of the trailer tires to keep it from moving. The back axles will push the front axle into the trailer, and the front axle will walk it's way up the ramp, the rest is easy. As long as your front bumper clears you're golden, I...

I keep mine in the driveway, at my house, the driveway is big enough four cars, and the deuce fills one space, the VW golf is behind it, the F250 is beside it, and the FJ is behind the F250.

LOL.... I wonder if offroadfabworks is still recommended....

I used to live in Ruidoso... My grand parents were in Deming, my great grand parents were in Roswell, my uncles in Capitan... I do recognize the terrain, it all looks the same. Haha... I would love to take my deuce over there, I just don't want to drive it over there....

Hey, ugly can be beautiful, look at the B-52

Everyone wants to see an A3 cut up... They thought the deuce wasn't ugly enough so they cut up 3 A2's to make 2 A3's and increased the ugly factor by a factor of 10! Maybe you can straighten out the headlights while you're working on that hood...

Whew, ordered the transmission from Boyce, it got here today, and I just finished installing it and test drove it. It sounds a thousand times better than it ever did! I'm very pleased with it, it was a bit harder to install than uninstall, the clutch linkage was a little annoying, but my...
