    Rear Winch On Bobbed Deuce

    dito but id look into an air actuated cylinder to operate it from the cab and use the handle as a backup. this way you can disengage and drive forward while you free spool, stop, lock it back in, and drag your load forward if you like without anyone near the tire or reaching under the bed.

    Rear Winch On Bobbed Deuce

    it has crossed my mind to do the same, id have to go with the 20k if i did it but the cost of the PTO is inhibiting and kind of a pain, preferably id love it converted to hydo but that cost is also very inhibiting. the 20k because i can virtually hide it under if i raise the bed off the frame...

    the bed mount is something ive contemplated for my up coming bob i decided to mimic the stock bed mounts, solid rear and spring front. i feel like removing the bogie will also likely remove alot of rigidity in the rear of the truck and im afraid if i mount the bed solid i will end up damaging...

    Global Warming and Deuce Air

    i have seen many try but it always seems cost prohibitive. red dot kits are available and i have seen one installed in a deuce (pics only) but there is quite a few obstetricals to over come. insulating the cab to yeild any effectiveness is in itself a huge problem, beyond that mounting the pump...

    did i do bad?

    well yesterday we had 85+ temps and at about 5 o'clock i went out to see what i could do and sure enough it fired right up so i tinkered around and found that there was two loose screws (7/16) that held what looks to be a small primer pump on the side of the IP, its where the fuel line comes in...

    types of jerry cans, mine look strange.

    These had oil in them when I was given them so food/water is out of the question sadly.

    types of jerry cans, mine look strange.

    well that explains my failed search attempts... yeah its a water can. so aside from marking it for safety reasons is there any reason i cant use these for fuel?

    types of jerry cans, mine look strange.

    i was given a Jerry can a few months back and never really thought much about it once i put it on the truck, after a while i began to take notice of Jerry cans in the pictures around here and i noticed mine is different than any Ive seen before. mine is a steel jerry can and fits in the holder...
