The old rubber elbow hose was pretty hard so I don’t think it was that. I didn’t take the air cleaner apart other than to dump the oil out. It ran like a champ today in the Independence Day parade so it sure helped. I know it looks a little goofy but it was actually parts they had in stock...

It’s been awhile but I did a mod to the deuce just to see if it helped. I had a big problem with hot restarts and it always felt like the engine was restricted. I went to Advance and bought a universal cold air kit. I made the filter mount and turned the aluminum carb hat forward. It was still...

check out https://www.olsonsgaskets.com/ They have gaskets for the 331. The 331 isn't listed on their website that I could find but they sent me a list of whats available. I need to reseal mine but I hate to even take it apart. I have a new exhaust leak since the July parade and what I think is...

It was super easy. I was able to put the tarp on by myself in less than 5 minutes. Of course the risers and bows were already in place.

The white tarp worked out great. I also posted a video on the Facebook group. With the tarp completely spread open and banging over the sides some, it was trapping a lot of exhaust fumes. I turned under the sides so the corner grommets lined up with the next one over basically doubling the...

That's brilliant! Feel free to hijack, especially with pertinent info. I raised my bows 14" by simply cutting some 1x4s and dropping them into the pocket. The bows didnt seem to want to come out while driving but i also have bungee straps attached to the bed side and bow. I'll likely bolt...

I don’t need anything else leaky! I park it on a rock pad and I can still see where it sits once I move it. Gasser gaskets and seals are not easy to come by and I figure is extra rust proofing!

Thanks. I didn’t think I had seen one before but figured I’d ask. I removed some accessories from a classic vehicle one time. All but gave them away only to realize later they were extremely rare and desirable. I unbolted it and took it out. I was more worried about the bed rusting where it...

I’ve been replacing the troop seat wood with some pressure treated 1x4s. I’m working on the front header and this box is in my way. . I’m never really paid it much attention but is the storage box something that all the deuces came with assuming they had a cargo bed? It’s not water tight and...

From experience, I will say, their website does not have nowhere near what they actually have in stock

George said one of the many times I have been over there they have been in the same location since 1947. They don’t sell complete vehicles like they used to but he does have a running 5 ton wrecker he wants to sell. I’ve dealt with many suppliers in the automotive field and it’s hard to top a...

George said one of the many times I have been over there they have been in the same location since 1947. They don’t sell complete vehicles like they used to but he does have a running 5 ton wrecker he wants to sell. Maybe one day if I’m lucky!

White Owl went through all the covers they had and did not have a 12 foot one. He did say it was no problem taking it back so if anybody needs a 3 color camo 5 ton cover they definitely have one.

Thank you sir, You nailed that one! I even tried flipping the cover front to back and of course the bows still didn’t line up with the tabs. I searched for sizing info but didn’t find anything useful. At least now we know what it will fit. Guess I’ll head back to white owl with it.

Can you elaborate on that info? The side roll ups have a plastic hook on the webbing that hooks to the metal ring on the outside. What I think is the rear panel has 2 large triangles with webbing for attachment. The length between the seams at the front and back bow point is 13’6”.

It’s a vinyl cover. I tried fitting it but it’s about a foot and a half too long so I’m going to call tomorrow and have them measure the other one. No rubber rope so it’s loose in the pic.

I made a trip out to White Owl and bought all the cover supports. I had enquirer about a cargo cover on the phone but he said they were out of them. While I dug through the stacks of supports, I asked the guy helping if they had any tops. He said we could look but he didn’t think so. We found 2...

Agreed! Of the many sites I’m a member of, SS is the best. Rarely do you see the keyboard morons who go out of their way to insult or belittle others for no reason.

Message sent on the cover!

I have a friend that does boat tops and upholstery but the good fabric is rather expensive. I’ll have him price out just a bikini style top. I read on down and really like the white top/tarp idea from Texas50.
