Of course. I should have realized it was dropped. I had my front end up in the air on my driveway for two weeks. I used 6" x 6" lumber under the jack stands and never got under the truck while it was up. Glad my driveway held up. Nice welding by the way! Thank you for the pictures. I'm...

I had damaged front brake linings too. Someone left two 3/8" steel nuts in the drum. I didn't have the bent shoes you do though. I wonder what could have caused them to bend inward like that? That's some pretty thick steel. I see you have a new pair of hubs too.

Which one Joshua? The main fuel line from the in tank pump to the injection pump? Always good to help a friend! Well done!

Hi Tim, Yeah I have some coffee cans too. After having done the axles, I was thinking about doing the T-case and tranny . I was thinking it would be hard to find a straight hose barb with 1/8" threads that wasn't too tall. It would interfere with the transmission cover. So, I thought about using...

How often do you get this lucky? I went down to my basement shop for the 723 rd time yesterday looking for a bolt for Brutus. I opened one of my nut and bolt drawers and found two 1/8" NPT 90 degree hose barb fittings! Praise Jesus!!! I probably bought those things 30 years ago. Anyway, I...

Aussie Bloke that was a neat movie! Looks like your Deuce handled it with ease. It really didn't seem as if your engine was being taxed at all. Boy, if I tried that in the States I'd get a visit from the State Police before I got 500 ft. Trespassing. Thanks!

Mr. Cattlerepairman.....I've been wanting to know for a long time.....what the heck is a SM-G950W and Tapatalk????

HN6 yours was a useful post for me. Your pictures reminded me of where the T-case and tranny vents are. Now I can plan on how I'm going to replace those vents. Thank you!

Boy, between Repairman and Sparky you guys sure do have two FINE looking Deuces!

That just happened to me a month ago. I took the front axle vent off and when the last thread came clear I couldn't believe the pressure behind the puff of air. I had just replaced my front inner axle seals, bearings, and brakes the previous Summer. The seals held thankfully.

I'm pretty sure you can just crawl under the truck, reach up an wiggle the caps on both. I'll probably take the transmission tunnel cover off to replace mine. I'm just wondering what the clearance is and if I'll need to use a 90 deg. street elbow to reduce the height.

Ok. Good to know. I got 70 miles into a trip to N.Y. State when I discovered my rear axle was blowing gear oil all over the place. The vent was stuck and the heat in the axle causes the air to expand pressurizing the oil past the seals. I recently did the hose barb and tubing thing on my axles...

NY you really have to watch your T-case and transmission vents to make sure they are not stuck in the down/closed position. They can make a small leak much worse. I know from personal experience. The parking brake assembly is one of the easier things to fix on a Deuce. I redid mine including a...

Just like mine V8 a great 60 ft. paint job. I've gone through three cases of Rapco O.D. Green so far. I would love to have Brutus sandblasted and painted, but I don't have the money.

Oh, okay V8 I couldn't see the rearmost axle in your avatar. You do have a nice looking Deuce! I use my Deuce the same way you do. Lowes, Home Depot, and trash disposal/yard waste. Thanks for your reply.

V8 is your Deuce bobbed? Love the winch.

Good job inspecting it. I'm glad you found my post useful. In my case, I think it was due to decades of moisture in my compressed air causing the steel cylinder bore to corrode. That corrosion also scored the piston and o-ring. It was a very loud air leak. Impossible not to hear it even with the...

https://steelsoldiers.com/threads/air-shift-service-before-swap-m35a2.198709/#post-2316284 I hope I did this right. Above is a link to a post I made concerning the transfer case air shift cylinder. I had to replace mine. The symptom was a huge, rushing air leak whenever I attempted to engage...
