    Need to find cheap Deuce

    Yes sir, that will get you one for 2k, maybe less! I bought one last year for a tad under 2k...needed head gaskets, e brake cable, winch fixed, door latches fixed...probably more that I'm forgetting. Seller said it would run, just blew a head gskt! Took his word for it as #6 fire ring was...

    restocking fee

    Been in business for quite some time and I can say I have never charged a restock fee to a customer. We sell a lot of wholesale to other local dealers who give us the P/N and if they muff up, they rarely ask. If they do and unless it was a odd ball, special order, I'll fix them up. About the...

    Deuce stranded me/wife on the Highway

    ^^^I will 2nd that!!! I remember a customer stop in and ask how to find a leak in his 30ft pontoon. I told him to pull it out of the water, drain the water, put the plug back in and face that pontoon at the sun so it builds up a little pressure. Once it's warm, spray it with soapy water and...

    Yanmar diesel motor in box OKC to Appleton, WI (or Minneapolis/Milwaukee/Madison ...)

    If anyone can get it to Fort Madison/Montrose Iowa, I can bring it to the Madison/Beaver Dam Wi area March 24-26th. I will be in meetings during the day but free after 1600hrs for them to pick it up. I'll be up that way anyway so N/C on my end. Mike

    deuce running hot?

    I'll 2nd having to run the wheels off mine to get to 180deg, 160-170ish is normal. I have ran several long parades in 100deg weather without going over about 170deg. The only times I remember 180deg is pulling the boat(4k lbs) @ 50mph or really long runs on the highway. I wouldn't drive it the...

    I really didn't mean to buy it...

    This thread is too much!!! Wife asked why I was laughing, so I had to read the thread to her. I really should say, I'm lucky, as she thought it was funny to. She rarely busts my jewels, she and the girls really like to play with the trucks and guns just about as much as I do...when I get as many...

    Worst Trip Ever

    Man oh man, I have just recently been pretty much the exact route you have taken, not the best place for trouble. We lost a wheel bearing out in the middle of nowhere but limped into Albuquerque where I fixed it in a Sears parking lot but it was smooth sailing for us the rest of the trip. I wish...

    1600+ miles in a Deuce

    Congrats on the safe trip! I'm glad your towing experience was good, the one time I tried it, it wasn't good. Pulled a dead soldier 30miles and it had 395's and wouldn't track behind my other deuce for anything, it wanted to go one way or another without someone steering it.

    Midwinter Winterization

    Defiantly a diehard! I looked at the one duece of mine that doesn't get to sit inside this winter with over a foot of snow on the hood. I thought to myself, you should go out and fire her up and reinstall the winch cable so we could go for a snow ride. The thought was fleeting at best.

    Low air pressure warning buzzer drives me crazy.

    ^^^^ Very good advise!!! I wouldn't think you could miss the turn signal indicator either, but I do more often than I want to admit. The buzzers are deafening but a very good thing!

    LCM 6 Info wanted, Landing Craft

    Man, boating has been in my blood all my life...just recently caught the green fever and now the two may be joining forces to eliminate my pocketbook altogether. When I was a kid we basically lived at the marina all summer and a group of guys had what I believed now be a DUKW(memory isn't 100%...

    Changes to the classifeds

    I think you guys are doing a great job!!! I appreciate you letting us play in the sandbox, so you do what you think is best. I personally see no reason why what you proposed will cause any trouble.

    How do you preserve your M101/103/105 covers?

    I'll 2nd or third the 303. Been in the marine business for a long time, 303 is what we use and recommend, granted, Iowa sun isn't nearly as harsh as Florida sun but still hard on upholstery. The price a few of you have found it for is good, it lists for $66 a gal and costs me $40 so $50 shipped...

    Steel Soldiers MV of the month - January VOTE HERE!

    I'm sorry, that was a tough decision!!! Absolutely love all the trucks...didn't read any of the thread before voting, As I have always thought Proud American should be the MV of the planet, decade, century, galaxy, ect. I think reo54 came in 1st and 1/2 with the others too close to call, so...

    Might not be a bad idea to post up the dimensions, that way if some one searches for them again, they may find the answer easily. mike
