I finally had a chance to take some pics of the tanks, the first two are of the tank I bought, the third is the one on my deuce. The obvious difference besides the dimensions is the location of the pump and fittings. Are there any part numbers that I could look for? C'mon guys, one of ya's...

You could probably get a prefab unit that will slide right in, you won't have to reinvent the wheel. You should also take a look at putting in a Tri-Max CAFS unit. The only thing you'd need is power to the reel to make it work. As for ROPS, get that done by a professional, don't just let...

Turbo's are cheaper and easier to install I believe.

I bet the ratio was MUCH higher than that, I don't recall seeing many at all. No unit I was ever in had one.

I should've said, but it's stenciled DIESEL.

That could be it. I think I'm gonna fix it up so I can use it as an auxilliary tank, or so I can put my clean WMO in it. It has the pump in it, and it's pretty clean. If the pump works, all it will need is a little rinse just to make sure there is no small grit in it.

Which model?

You're probably going to have to repost these in the classified's, they frown on ads in the discussion forums.

I got a pretty nice fuel tank, it looks like a deuce tank, but it's not the same size as the one on my A2. My tank is 39.5"long x 15.5" tall x 22" deep. The new one I got is 31" long x 17" tall x 26" deep. They both look the same, just different measurements. The new one also has late 60's...

What percentage of your deuce has to be painted to count? I got some pieces done so far.....

If you have 1000 gallons in it you are WAY overloaded and are going to KILL SOMEONE. You should check the capacities of the truck and put in the proper size tank. And maybe you won't get stuck with it. :soapbox: :doh:

I'm just wondering what modifications you all have seen done to the Deuce's by different military units. I'm not talking about accesseries listed in the TM's, or Gun Trucks, just the little things units did to adapt them to whatever mission or job they did. I know our shop deuce in the maint...

I don't see a "Conversations" forum anywhere, did it get relabeled, split up, or did I just miss it? Seems like there's more trouble with this new site loading than with the old. :?

Uh, you KNOW that things going to blow the picture tube next week now that you've moved it upstairs don't you?? :cookoo: I just replaced my old tube TV with an 32" LED one. Weighs about 6 pounds and cost less than half of what I paid for the old one. Heck it's only been moved about 15 feet...

ICE=Chains, PERIOD. I don't know that grooves will help that much on packed snow, probably better than before, but lockers would probably help too.

FYI, if your deuce catches fire next to the pump, your deuce and the pump will burn up, that's it. No ka-blooey, no Hiroshima sized fireballs, no Hollywood special effects. The fuel tanks are underground for a reason. And along with that, don't get a little cheapo Walmart extinguisher...

If you're off road and the ground is anything but hard and dry, engage the front axle. Use low range if it's muddy. Trailers in mud are a good way to get stuck, think of them as boat anchors. Also remember that unless they've been upgraded to LED's, deuce tail lights are hard to see...

Your description is pretty vague, pics and info on condition would help.

Just remember that just because this is a military vehicle, it's NOT a tank. Unless you have ROPS made for the truck, you will have NO rollover protection. Read the NIOSH reports on military vehicles and do drivers training BEFORE you put this truck in service. Good luck with your "new" truck.
