    tongue weight?

    for the pintle, but for the truck wouldn't it be around 1000# of tongue weight if the maximum towed load is 10,000#?

    New side exhaust

    Oh alright. I guess that would make sense as the battery box and fuel tank are lower than the drivetrain, making whatever it would take to it the exhaust pretty extreme.

    New side exhaust

    or like crane trucks but with only a single pipe?

    New side exhaust

    a waste gate like that would work. You could get fancy and get an electric one that would open when you turn on the truck and turn off when you shut it down. Thunder Racing - Exhaust Cut-Outs

    New side exhaust

    I was thinking of doing something similar when i get my deuce, except with one stack. I haven't been under a deuce in a while and was curious how much space there was under the truck to run the exhaust pipes?

    New side exhaust

    You could put a raincap on it so when the engine is off it closes the exhaust. I would still suggest putting a jug or something over it when you don't use it for long periods of time so that if the rain cap happened to blow open, stuff wouldn't get inside. NAPAONLINE®

    Ouverson Engineering Wish List

    that is true, though this would be different with lockers but it would still pose a problem.

    Ouverson Engineering Wish List

    you would have to have a master cylinder that is designed to work with drum brakes as well as disc because disc brakes take less fluid movement to operate than drums, or you would have to have a serious proportioning valve It would be a more powerful parking brake i would think. I would only...

    Ouverson Engineering Wish List

    x2 on the brakes. the brakes are designed around small trucks with big axles and tires. This very common and mainly to get the heavy brake assembly off the axles to save weight.

    Finally got my 11:00 20Rs mounted!

    I was just curious because if i get one before i am out of college there is going a time that i would probably cross the pass during the mandatory "chains on vehicle" time and was wondering if there would be enough room. I found a couple chain sets for 11.00-20. OpenDNS RUD Tire Chains -...

    do you think you would be able to run chains at least on one of the rear drive axles?

    Finally got my 11:00 20Rs mounted!

    He got the tires through 100dollarman. going with 11.00-20 is probably the easiest tire swap on the deuce, I think. ODNORTH has the, on his deuce and looks like they were meant to be there. and you can run them with stock rims in a dually configuration.

    Finally got my 11:00 20Rs mounted!

    can you run chains with 11.00's on a deuce?

    stock deuce 65 mph

    look at the gearing of the trucks. 6.72:1!!!! you are right. these trucks really, were designed to run a 45 mph all day long. period. you don't see new cars floating down the road at the redline just barely pulling highway speed. well the deuce would just run the corvette over if he panic...
