Nice looking setup you constructed. [thumbzup]

Does the pressure always build up steadily to 65 and than just hold there. If I remember correctly you need to turn the adjusting screw counterclockwise to increase pressure.

Any chance they cross over to a gasket on the deuce fuel cans. If I order them online from NAPA 10 ~15 at a time then the shipping ends up being almost nill per gasket. Just a thought.

I was thinking the same thing. Some people try to interchange 88+ parts to a earlier year not thinking that the later serpentine belt style pumps and fans run reverse from the 87 and earlier years. A good factory fan and clutch assembly will be far superior to a fixed fan anyway.

I do everything myself except break down tires. I did that a couple of times 35+ years ago and only because I got paid to do it. No garage just in the driveway or backyard. Also it would depend on the MV you are considering. Something along the 1009, 1008, 1028, 1031 are no more than a slightly...

Nice score. Always a plus when the boss approves.

Great to hear it is running as good as it looks...[thumbzup]

Like PSturg66 indicated that hub is toast. The outer cup should be a press fit in the hub. At some point in it's life they spun a bearing. Local wreaking yard should have those hubs a dime a dozen.

They are two different switches.

Welcome to the site. Very nice looking truck.

Checked the front springs and I have 12.

I would imagine that would depend on the model. I was looking at a 712 6X6 and they should make a great off-road truck but they seem to have a differential gear problem at sustained highway speeds unless upgraded to a “gen2” gear set which looks to be rather expensive compared to the cost of the...

I have a 71 deuce and will check the number of leafs tomorrow. Mine is a non-winch truck so maybe this will shed some light on the difference.

I'm no expert but maybe the replacement came from a "A3" model. Not sure they use a different spring or not but I would think a 5 ton spring would be much longer and wider than a deuce.

For trucks over 10K GVWR it is 25. This is from the Maryland MVA site " Does my vehicle qualify for historic or street rod plates? Historic: To qualify as a historic vehicle, your vehicle must not have been substantially altered, remodeled, or remanufactured from its original design...

TM 9-2320-361-10 clearly states to downshift when slowing down or stopping. "PLACING THE VEHICLE IN MOTION (Contd) DOWNSHIFTING TRANSMISSION When transmission gearshift lever (2) is in positions “3–5” (THIRD through FIFTH OVERDRIVE), and vehicle needs to be slowed or stopped, the...

Just to add a few ideas Does it do this only when running under load or will it demonstrate the same tendency if running with no load ? Is it a smooth gradual slowdown, like closing the throttle or rough running and fighting for life, missing and stumbling, or just...

Excellent looking truck.

How much room is around the deuce when inside the "lightweight maintenance enclosure". I might have some room coming available in the back yard and was just thinking...

Very well done... [thumbzup]
