    Frame rail width on 813A1

    What is the frame rail width on the 813A1? Is it the same as a m35a2? I could not find anything in the TMs for the 813A1. But I did find dimensions of the M35A2. I might need to fab up a receiver hitch to pull my truck and trailer with if the trucking firm I hired doesn't come through in the...

    Would fiber optics work?

    You could also make light guide out of plastic tubing, flexible or semi-rigid, filled with mineral oil, then capped with plugs of the acrylic you are talking about.

    More efficient Deuce..?

    Not to hi-jack the thread..... The Hemmt seats do look great. But a note for the taller crowd. I tried the same thing. As a suggestion on how to incease the amount of leg room in the cab. They give a better ride, but they actually decrease the amount of legroom due to the seat's angle.

    Making X-country round trip WA to VA to WA

    Looking for a Smaller Deuce Steering Wheel

    devilman96, I was figuring that the steering wheel problem was going to wind up involving a lot of work to fix. Thank you for confirming my fears. I hadn't thought of welding a deuce center into another steering wheel. Great idea. Machining a spline would definitely be to involved for me...
