    Parking brake question.

    My parking brake assembly is in tough shape and in need of replacement. I have the older style and was wondering if the newer style is a direct fit or if I need to stay with the original? Thanks all

    My first ever fuel run in my new to me deuce and a half went well...at first. Ideas?

    Based on all the advice I got from you folks I think I have my fuel system cleaned out pretty well. I did not remove the tank itself but I did use a siphon to get down to the bottom of the tank and that method seem to work very well. As soon as money allows I will be buying the spin on filter...

    Wheel hub warm/hot

    Thank you everyone. The drum seemed cool compared to the hub. I readjusted the hearing nut and will take a ride tomorrow and see how it is. Thank you everyone. On a side note I replaced both seals on this hub and yet there still seems to be axle gear oil in my grease..... Grrrr. I guess I'll be...

    Wheel hub warm/hot

    I took my deuce out for a little test ride this morning and overall everything went quite well. The fuel system seems to be better after cleaning the tank and changing/cleaning the filters. After doing a post drive check in and around the truck I noticed the Rear hub that I put new seals in...

    My first ever fuel run in my new to me deuce and a half went well...at first. Ideas?

    That's a great idea at least to let me run down to a more manageable quantity of fuel to make the assessment to remove the tank. Thank you

    i think your correct as now I have 40-45 gallons of fuel to figure out what to do with lol. The truck is new to me and I didn't realize I had an issue prior to this or I would have never filled her lol.

    My first ever fuel run in my new to me deuce and a half went well...at first. Ideas?

    I took my wife for our first ever run in the deuce to go get fuel. It's about a 6 mile trip one way. It went absolutely awesome for 95% of the trip. I decide right or wrong to leave the deuce running while I fueled up concerned it wouldn't start back up (I'm a little paranoid about such...

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    I've been working on getting my MV ready for an inspection. Made the appointment for Friday. I hope it passes. Fingers crossed. I'm a bit of a negative personality sometimes so I'm sure they will find something wrong.
