1. Speed will depend on whether you have stock tires or larger like 395's. I have larger and run about 55 on interstate and such. I don't run mine at 60. It seems high on the revs. 2. I believe towing capacity (officially) is 10k. You could tow more but power and braking will be limited. Truck...

:funny: Put on a helmet.

By the way, I did not find any bats and puppies but I did find the remainder of the mesh screen and two tree branches about a foot long!

So this little endeavor has turned out to be quite educational on my part. To recap, I was only planning on finding out why the fuel gauge was intermittent. I figured the sender was stuck or bad, etc. Once I saw that only two bolts held the bands to take off the tank I decided to drain the...

That was my intent. I have it together and was going to check temps and move on. :grin:

I've just torn into my rear-rear axle due to some oil-washed bearings and grease on the pads. Upon following all the instructions of re-assembly everything looks good but unlike the front, the outer seal on the rear seems to cause the hub to not spin as freely as the front. Is this normal? I...

It was not the full vin that Dmv told me to use. I think it was only first 7 characters. I put on back right and front left bumper.

I had a bunch of rust. Cleaned it up with a wire wheel.

I will have to upload a pic. It has no screen and is definitely a rusty, corroded pipe. It had so much I barely got it out. Of course a bunch fell into the tank.

Anyone know what the purpose of the sleeve that is inserted into the Deuce fuel tank is for? The only thing I see is that the fuel cap is attached to it. Other than gathering rust perhaps?

Got a plug just hanging near coolant plug. Should something be plugged in here?

Anyone had issues with grease getting on the rear brake pads? Would think the inner seal would prevent that. .

While working on my master cylinder the winch handle must have gotten bumped out of neutral. So when I crank up and let out on the clutch the winch shaft spins......I hear it an find neutral on the PTO. Didn't think much of it until I saw the remains of the shear pin on the ground. Shouldn't the...

I like that the comments are still coming. Very informative but I too have also gotten the black bottles of 80/90 from Oreilly already and intend on using that.

Where can a brass shutoff valve with NPT be found? I only seem to find them with compression fittings.

I read the whole thing before starting this thread. :confused: hahahahahahaha

I ended up stopping at another store and looking at the packaging the brake hones come in and the instructions stated to use brake fluid as the "honing oil". I used that. Of course the guys in parts stores these days know very little. I asked where the brake "hones" were and he said he only...

Looking in the TM for lubrication order for the Deuce it lists GO 80/90 for the t-case and transmission. Upon reading forums for the last hour I see everything from 30w, 40w, 50w synthetic to 200w pixie dust mentioned to use. Can someone post in one sentence or less what I can walk into NAPA and...

Rustystud, what do you recommend for lubricant in the bore while honing? Engine oil? Or something else?

ok. Thanks for the advice. I'll hit it with the hone a little and then take an emery or file and get those burrs off the piston. I only decided to put the kit in since I had the MC off trying to fix some seepage and connections to the remote reservoir. There was some fluid in the rubber boot...
