One big problem you will have with a bobbed deuce is that you have removed one axle and effectively reduced the braking capacity by 33%. A good lawyer will argue that the GVW has been reduced by 33% due to the reduced braking capacity.

Due to the fact that these...

What is the ID and thickness (diameter of the metal) on the lunette eye on the dolly?

CO2 gives you more volume for given size bottle. This is due to CO2 being in a liquid form in the tank and there is an expansion factor of about 10 when it is converted to gas. Do to the gas conversion you can freeze the regulator and the air tool can get so cold you need gloves. You need to...

Diesel or ATF is basically just a lighter weight oil being used to wash the crud out.
