    cost of ownership (the real cost of a deuce)

    Guess I missed this last year. I got a different deuce in late Jun & have really been enjoying it. As far as your suggestion to run away, I'm happy finally having an MV. Like every hobby, it is a continuing investment & if not in this hobby, it would be one of my many others. Glad you got to...

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    A day late, but Saturday I took the Deuce to the El Mirage Classic Car Show. An M37 showed up too & won Best Truck (and rightfully so). Also some beautiful classics (lots more there, but these were my favorites).

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    Aussie, I have felt your pain. That happened to me in 1986 in a Chevy Silverado pickup with the 5.7 liter diesel (Chevy's insane experiment with taking the popular 350 gas engine & converting it to diesel). The batter connectors were the screw in on the side of the battery, not clamp to the...

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    I've never seen a hood blanket before, not even in W. Germany when I was stationed there in the 80s. Pretty neat though. Reminds me more of a flak vest. Thanks for sharing the photo.

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    Finally got photos from the photographers site from the show in Dec (see page 624 of this thread for my original post). As promised, here they are.

    Why did you sell it then?

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    I was wondering how that operated, thanks.

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    Entered my Deuce in the 4th Annual Cutrano Hotrods & Hawgs Charity Benefit Party & Toy Drive (for the children of fallen AZ military members) along with some of the other members of the Arizona Military Vehicle Collectors Club. Our club won Best of Show 3rd Place. Apparently among the 23...

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    I actually never used it because I wanted to keep my new Deuce stock. Thanks for the info though. I only got it because I was planning to put 395s on the other Deuce I was going to get & I would have to keep the Spare in the back.

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    No worries, just lay down some travelling music in post production. I lived in SA so there was much less plants & much more red dirt looking out the window, but it is always great to see adventures down under. Thanks for sharing the video, mate. You can also tell your mum that now she's...

    You can but a 1,000 pound crane with swivel & hand crank winch for about $150.00 at Harbor Freight.

    Why does this picture make me think of donuts? :drool::drool:

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    Can you pick these up without killing your back? I couldn't so for me, I'm glad I didn't go 395s. They sure look great on a Deuce though!

    The big trip and a new MV.

    My stupid "smart" phone likes to change my words when I type. I did type in pyrometer (it just tried changing it this time to perimeter) originally. Anyway, thanks for the explanation of the device & purpose. Is it just a temp sending unit in the exhaust stack to dash meter?

    Gotcha, my misunderstanding.

    The big trip and a new MV.

    I've only ever used the low range when creeping through the Veteran's Day Parade.

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    Ahh, those look like jeep mirrors. Thanks for the clarification.

    The big trip and a new MV.

    Oh, I also noticed some fluid on the underside of the PTO shaft heading up to the winch. From best I could tell, it looked to be coming from the IP area. Any ideas?
