    Inner Hub Seal on rear axle

    10-4 on all. yea it is tore apart, seal looks just fine and contemplating replacing it. I do have new ones. also, reading the TM shows the hub removal, etc but i do NOT see where it talks about the cork wedge in the re-assembly. when exactly does it get inserted? I assume after the bearings and...

    Inner Hub Seal on rear axle

    If the inner hub seal looks fine (meaning that rubber piece that wraps around the seal looks intact) do most just leave them alone? I have asked this question before and did not get much response. What is a good way to get the new hub seal started on the spindle? i took the front ones to a shop...

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    Had a brand spanking new main air line made at Parker for the '66. Used the black synthetic fiber wrapped line for the whole thing. I could have gone a little cheaper with only using the good stuff for the first few feet but chose the easier route. Had to drop one of the tanks down to get the...

    It was not alone on the truck then...or the driver just wanted to go to Cali. That is way cheap. Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

    Shipping a Deuce

    Simp nailed it. I hauled one the other day and it paid $2.75 but it was a M109 and I had to let the air out of tires for height concerns. They are an easy load and if you need a hauler PM me. It won't be me but I can get you a hauler and bypass any broker BS. Kip Sent from my SM-G955U...

    Metallic noise near compressor

    While working on an injection line leak yesterday I noticed a noise around the compressor. It is metallic and wonder if it could be the compressor failing. It does make air. https://youtu.be/IGfYWmXZD1Y Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    Using sunbrella may actually be a dang good idea. If handy stitching, you could even make a loop on each end that the clamp goes through....making it easier to keep in the groove while tightening. Sorta like the drawstring that goes through a hoodie. We used to make a lot of our guncovers using...

    I tried Forrest green on one of my MV"s and it just didn't work. It looks great on yours though!! I am thinking about doing some sort of tiger stripe on my M109. Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

    Air Compressor Main line Repair

    10-4. Thank y'all for the info. I am not very good at hydraulic lines, air lines, and the mass of different fittings for all of them. I can take this info to parker and they can set me up.

    Air Compressor Main line Repair

    Think i will be following you on this...i would hate for the SHTF and one of my "always able to be relied on deuces" be deadlined due to a air that should have been replaced.

    Air Compressor Main line Repair

    So you replaced the entire line with this correct? Did parker match the fittings also?

    Air Compressor Main line Repair

    My main compressor line has a hole in it at a frame rail by the radiator. I spoke with a parts house and they recommended using synthetic air line to replace it and that is a great idea, said the fittings may be different. My worry is that the air may be too hot coming out of the pump for...
