    New Deuce and Load Out Advice

    Look for a truck broker that specializes in "Hot Shot" rigs. That is a big dually pickup truck pulling a gooseneck trailer. It will haul the deuce and they charge a lot less per mile than a big rig. If you find one that needs a backhaul from Minn. you may be able to get an even better price...

    To bad for the radio.........

    Since you can lock those radios into a mount pretty easy it should keep some drooling moroon from jacking your stereo. Just remember to fasten down the speakers too.

    On Board Air Hose Reel...Done

    That is one neat trick. 8) It's like a Maxi-pad. Not the worlds greatest invention, but right up there next to it. I'd give it a nine. [thumbzup] It looks like there might be room to put a thin metal shield over the reel to keep crap off of it. Even on city streets you can run through a lot...

    New trailer win...

    How did she pull with the dolly from "Hotlanta"? I know there are a few pulls coming out, especially the long hill by Six flags. Does it get squirrelly at highway speeds? Did you go through the weigh station or just wave as you went by? Inquiring (nosey) minds want to know.

    Artillery Display

    I'd pay a quarter (or a divorce lawyer) to see the look on my old lady's face if I drove that up in the yard. 8)

    Diablo Build Update (pics)

    Devilman....you should consider putting all the pics along with your experiences (in a word document) on a CD. It would be invaluable to anyone thinking of the upgrades and modifications you have done and might save someone from reinventing the wheel. You could sell it on the site or give it...

    Shifting Question?

    If it is only going 22 MPH in fourth gear it has to be in low range. There should be a lever sticking out of the floor somewhere to pull it up into high range.

    M35A2 Insurance.. Got it!

    I have found a deuce I want and I called American Collectors Insurance out of New Jersey, the same company I have my 70 Duster insured with, to get a quote. I was quoted a full coverage policy for $50.00 a year. The truck does have to be in a gagage (I have one for it) and there is a milage...

    Putting a cigarette lighter in a CUCV

    Unless you are going to use this devise to power 12 volt accessories don't do it. It's against regulations to smoke in any military vehicle. :lol:

    Daisy chain towing deuces

    No interstate travel involved. I was just wondering if it was possible. I will prob get a lowboy and pull them with a daycab tractor. Much safer with all the impatient idiots out there.

    5 Ton Semi tractors and trailers?

    My old unit here at Fort Benning had what we called "Air Force trailers". They were drop decks about 35 ft. long with a long narrow flat space on top of the gooseneck. I was told that they were the trailers that went with the M246 wreckers. The unit next to us had a M246 and we hooked them...

    Daisy chain towing deuces

    Has anyone ever flat towed more than one deuce using two tow bars. The vehicles I have in mind are parts trucks without engines or trannys so weight is decreased a lot. I can't cut them up where they sit. My big concern would be no brakes on the towed vehicles because of the engines being...

    Old Fuel - Rough on the Injection Pump?

    Red fuel is "off road diesel". That is fuel that is sold without road taxes added to it for farm and other non-highway use. Sounds like the previous owner was trying to save a few bucks on fuel costs. If you get caught running off road fuel on the highway you can be fined. Chances of getting...
