If you use low range they both do great. The 5 ton is bigger and can carry more weight so all in all they are about the same I would think when talking about acc. loaded.

Well in my opinion right off the bat it is easier to get ins for a deuce than a 5 ton. Cause of the GVW. We own both and I like the 5 ton better. The Cummins is SWEET as well as the power steering! You can bolt the 1600 right on, no issues. I love driving the deuce though!! It is nice to hear a...

Yes I did the paint my self, just before the rain came too!! I am working on getting pics up right now so check back in about an hour or so. Painting it was easy. Used Rapco current issue OD. Mixed it around 20% with xylene. used a detail gun on some of the little things and a big gun on the...

Great work Bjorn! Looks like you need some more copper tubing. Amazing how the little things can affect ya, that often are over looked.

I agree Carnac!! It would be a good refresher for all to do so from time to time. Scary when people do not even know where the air wiper control knob is.

Nice bob job! Looks good on the 52"s

Good pics, its great to know that it all can be done from the top!

Thanks! In the mean time I did end up finding some. It is good to know that though.

Take lots of pics of the fix! I like the radio antenna mounts, mine did not have those. Truck looks great!

Good luck with the bearing! Great looking truck. Would love to see more pics of it!!

Wow what a neat truck!! Congrats on getting it home! Looks alot better than the one (WC 52) sitting at my place, but once CitizenSoldier gets it home it could look like this one. Thanks for sharing.

Yup, just need the right tool for the right job.

I know of a guy who has done body lifts to make the jakes clear. Looks pretty good really.

Congrats on the win of the battle. When those things get stuck they are a pain!

I have used my trucks for this sort of thing many times!! I will have to get some pics next time.

I know, I never said there was anything wrong with it.

Todd- I like your philosophy! But then I would need something else and then would have to buy another truck. lol

Thanks Todd, looking forward to it! On the farm we have two trucks with 3 stage Jakes on them. 1970 Pete and an '85 KW C 500. I know what you mean by getting tired of hearing them! It is amazing what you can do with the 3 stage and a retarder!

The stretch method works. I used it on on old WC52 that had been sitting for years with 40+ year old tires.
