The M62 wrecker is fitted with 1200x20. The British A.E.C. Militant was fitted with them. I have A.E.C. militant 1200x20 wheels and tires on one of my deuces. (Flipped and singled out). Great cruise low R.P.M.s and extra M.P.G.

I don't think condensation would do that in the short time you say you drove it. There simply must have been water ingress through the torn boots at some point, And you don't recall driving in the wet. Could be water had accumulated in the bottoms of the torn boot before you purchased the truck...

Ditto on that, I for one thought (That) only the Royal Enfield from India was one of the only diesel motorcycles in production. I will be looking up the data and specifications for sure. Thank you for the post.

I have 1200x20 on two of my deuces. MAKE SURE you obtain tire with a GOOD tread pattern and grip. These trucks DO NOT steer ( At all well ) ,in the wet ice or snow. Do not use the speed available in inclement weathers. Just drive carefully and enjoy the lower RPMs cruise and better fuel mileage.

The 'torch' is one those absolutely 'must have' items in the workshop. I certainly could not have completed all the tasks I have completed over the years without one.

As We never go deep water plodding, the vent lines from the slave and brake master cylinders are disconnected. And the others are routed to the intakes near the air cleaners.

Look in the T.M. for your truck, There will be a schematic for the air system including all the venting that is fitted for fording purposes. You can disconnect the fuel tank vent line coming in and re route it. The vent coming out can also be re positioned so that no pressurizing occurs.

Pull some brake fluid from the master cylinder with an Eye dropper or such, And then squeeze some drops into a shallow dish or saucer of water, If it mixes it is hygroscopic And is a dot three four or 5.1. If it does not mix it will be a hydrophobic silicone brake fluid which is DOT.5. Fluid...
