Looks very good. [thumbzup] Now you need to trade for a solid green cover.

Great to hear your trip was a success. [thumbzup] Don't forget to check the vent on top of the transmission. They are just like the ones on the axles and if it sticks shut it will let the pressure in the transmission build up when it gets hot and can cause the fluid to purge out the input...

Have done it this way several times myself when a good impact isn't handy. This is not OSHA approved. :whistle:

Yes you need air to keep the front axle lock engaged.

You are correct on the full kit cost and shipping. Those crates are big and heavy. I wish I would have know that GMA was going to stop production and single item sales to the public I would have bitten the bullet and bought one or two covers for my deuce and trailer. Oh well, 20/20 hind sight.:(

I was hoping that a enterprising vendor might put together a group buy sense this topic comes up every couple of months. Use the power of business to business discounts and volume shipping rates. One of the problems would be who needs complete kits and who needs just covers. Covers only are much...

I don't know but I got a set and they worked perfect....:)

Excellent work....[thumbzup]

I wouldn't think the seal would have enough bore to seat in

Nice looking deuce...[thumbzup] Time to download the manuals if you don't already have them and get real friendly with your new deuce. You will be surprised as to how many zerks there are to find....:)

Congrats on the "Road Trip"..:) If you have good glass you can get the frame kit. Windshield Frame Kit For M35, M54, M809, M37 Trucks, 8686995

I ran across a 13spd Road Ranger when I pulled wrenches for a living that had the 4th 5th reversed like in the deuce. Only one I ever ran across.

I was just sitting here thinking if it would be a good idea to place a 1/4” or 3/16 hardened washer between the base and floor at the bolt locations to allow air circulation through there. Also would let you blowout dirt and water with a air hose.

I have thought about that happening seeing how these cabs leak all the time and having that large metal plate that makes the base of the seat bolted directly to the metal floor that way. Looks like I might just need to pull my seat and see if anything is hiding under there.

Was that under the springer seat base ?

Looks like a good project start. Welcome to the site from another citizen of the Peoples Republic of Maryland. Looks like you have a nice place to work on it... [thumbzup]
