    weight of 9x20 tire and wheel

    I have a spare set of 9x20 NDT tires on deuce rims but I'm not sure how I could weigh one. I doubt my poor bathroom scale could handle it. REAL HEAVY is a good assessment, but I was able to swap all 10 of mine without a Soldier B. The above link gives a rough estimate of between 125 and 200...

    Should it be mandatory that new owners read the -10 manual before they take delivery??????????

    Seems to me there is a fine line somewhere in here. The difference seems to be those people who ask for help after they've made a genuine effort to solve it themselves, and the other people who don't look for answers but simply ask for help. I myself have asked for and recieved help here lots of...

    M35a2 Boyce Equipment

    Welcome to Steel Soldiers! I can't speak for or against Boyce Equipment. I can say based on my limited experience that owning a Deuce is a labor of love. They are great fun, and very useful, but as others have said they require a lot of maintenance. I would advise you to drive one before you...

    Air pack rebuild kits

    Hi. I rebuilt my air pack earlier this year and it is working great. You need to determine if you have a long (older style) or short (newer style) pack. Mine is the short pack. I ordered a rebuild kit from member @Monkeyboyarmy and it came with everything I needed. There is also a good write up...

    Yet another engine oil and diesel fuel thread

    I like the idea of using 2 stroke oil to help lubricate the injectors. Do you have a recommended ratio for the multi fuel?

    Hello from Northern Alabama!

    I would think your 4 runner should pull it just fine. Especially for recreational use. I've been itching for an m105 to pull behind my deuce, just so it won't get lonely :ROFLMAO:. Good luck with your search!

    Hello from Northern Alabama!

    Welcome to the site, neighbor. I live close to Huntsville. Don't have any advice on auctions, but plenty of folks on here do. What do you plan to pull your M101 with?

    New Paint, what are your thoughts?

    I like the color a lot. Nice job on the painting too. It's your truck, so if it makes you happy that's what counts. I've seen pictures of deuces painted yellow, red, even pink. Good looking truck!

    What is this...anyone?

    My luck would be, after it's long gone I would find out where it belonged. Then again, I find parts that belong on vehicles I don't have anymore.

    Thank you! Texas here!

    Welcome to the site! That's a fine looking deuce. Even though I wouldn't pick that shade of green it is extremely safe. Might get you an insurance discount :D. Congratulations on your new truck.

    Howdy from Texas!

    Reading a "deuce" manual would seem appropriate.

    Seat covers

    I agree with all of you. Excellent work! I also agree with Mullaney, you've got yourself a "keeper". Very impressive.

    M1008 cracked head gaskets, runs fine, fix? Or engine swap?

    Welcome to Steel Soldiers! You have a terrific looking truck there. The advice above to read the TMs (technical manuals) is excellent, because it will give you and your husband a much better understanding of how your truck works. Even if you hire a mechanic to do the work, you won't be going in...
