Good looking machine. Stay low, and come back safely. The last mod on yer list is the first one I did on my Big Girl. It has cut into others getting done. :beer:

I really hope it IS as good as it looks.

Please don't shoot the messenger, but I thought you already knew the "right" pulley is scarce as hen's teeth ( rare ). One idea if the love tap method or replacement aren't viable MIGHT be to convert the accessory drive to the serpentine style used on later models. I DO NOT know for sure if...

If somebody already addressed it, I missed it and I apologize. The remaining wobble in the bottom pulley can only be "cured" one of two ways, replace the pulley or apply some "love taps" to the old one. The balancer going ( this time, or before ) probably caused the run-out in the pulley. I...

Ahhh, understand. Legal B.S. : ) Would make a nice Wildland Interface truck for some Dept. if they ​found an AWD chassis to drop it on.

Found these on TrucknTow.com if anyone prefers stainless or shiny. $22.99 ea. Just sharing. Saw while shopping for the cable style ladder / step for the front of mine.

Welcome from Lancaster, PA. BEAUTIFUL "Kraftwagen" !

[thumbzup] [thumbzup] [thumbzup] [thumbzup] The injector leak might clear itself up too ( o-ring swells back up ) with use but yes that's any easy fix if needed. No sugar tonight !

IF they sugared the tank, it's still laying in the bottom. :lol: :lol: :lol: I always laughed when cars came in with that complaint. I always translated it as, "I tried to fix it and have NO idea what I'm doing so God only knows what is wrong with it now that I messed with it along with the...

That body would not work well on a Deuce except for looks. With a full tank of water ( looks like 1000 gal. ) and foam, and equipment that body will weigh in around 7 tons. Fire apparatus are notorious for being "overweight". A "bobbed" 5 - ton would work if the springs are upgraded to take...

I've seen the generic fill-in-the-blank decals, but are the original ones out there somewhere or reproduced? My 813 is an AM Gen. so the Kaiser Jeep version would be a little older. Am very interested in finding the decals and also trying to figure out how to "refurbish" the exterior data...

Welcome from Lancaster, PA ! THAT appears to be one well loved and cared for machine. My hope for you is that the nice paint isn't covering a myriad of sins. Don't wanna be a downer but too many of them are "in need". :driver:

Was just gonna post that if cucvrus didn't have it or know where to get it then it can't be had. If memory serves, all the GM rear shock brackets ( C and K with leaf springs ) are the same for the side they're on. They used the same staggered set-up since '72.

There is a very old saying, " if ya wanna play, yer gonna pay ". If this is just an exhibition pull, I would talk to the organizer / sled operator and have them set the sled so you can do a "full pull" but just barely. They should know just how much "slide" to put in the sled to achieve this...

[thumbzup] John always goes above and beyond. His passion for our hobby is evident all over this site. Thank you 98G !

Don't know what the laws might be out your way but instead of the Bluetooth speaker I wear over the ear Bluetooth headphones. Get some noise cancellation and can hear the music and take phone calls ( only in emergency ). Not sure it's legal, per se, but several LEOs have seen it and I even had...

Hokey - Pokey Sandcobra ! THAT'S what it's all about. Can't wait to get mine trustworthy enough for joyriding and such. My nine year old can't wait either.

That's why I wish ARB, or Eaton made a selectable locker for the Rockwell's. When ya need it, NOTHING else will do, but . . . when not needed it's no different than having anspool in there. Unless you idle around every turn, or have selectable hubs, it will NOT steer. Winfred, I am amazed...

Clinto : Original tires versus G177s Thanks Clinto, I wasn't sure if he got 177's to match the original size or went bigger. No different than trying to fit 35's on a stock K10 / 20 / 30. One mod effects everything else.

Welcome from Lancaster, PA and WOW ! Super nice M1010. Your post was kinda long so for now I'll just hit a coupla points. Replace the balancer before anything else. Very common and well known deficiency of the 6.2. I have seen these fly apart and if yours is already wobbling it's just a...
