A man walks into a bar ... the bartender asks ... "What'll it be?" The guys says ... "I'll have a Dawn and Water ... and keep 'em coming. I gotta break down a couple Deuce wheels and some guy named Wreckerman says its a good idea to get good and lubed first!" :grin: oddshot

+1 Jim ... try to get a look at the outer race and the inner race of the bearing itself. You will find a number and (likely) a brand name (i.e., Timken, SKF, NTN, etc. as above) stamped into the sides. That number and name should cross over to several name brands ... Finding these things...

Pitting and galling ... the ones on the right rear are the worse of the lot. The ones on the left aren't *real* bad ... but since its apart ... may as well do it now and have it over with. The seals were also leaking and the gaskets and corks were missing. While we were back there we saw the...

I went the DIY route myself ... except I replaced both elbows ... Using a sawzall, I cut the old system ... and fitted the new parts with the system installed IN the truck. Then to hold everything where I wanted it ... I screwed in a couple 1/8 self-tapping screws at every joint. These screws...

Very Nice. What does NJDMV do to Deuce owners? Inspection ... or are you registered as an antique? oddshot

Craigslist is a good idea ... but I bet you'll run into a lot of people with LARGE quantities ... who are looking for BIG money. I got my pick-up pump done ... now I'm starting on my drum lift for the back of the bed ... When I get that done ... in addition to the ad on Craigs list ... I'm...
