    Mistery brackets, what are they for?

    Yes, standard gauge panel. Also the fender was torched out (slag and all) for the stack. When I changed out my J-pipe last year. I thought at the time, what a skilled metal craftsman, must mave put that hole in the fender.

    Dual Springer Suspension seats

    It's in. :razz: The little seat looks lower than the springer seats next to it in the pictures. I made it so the bottom cushion would be at the same hight that the springer seats would be, when someone is sitting in them compressing them down.

    Mistery brackets, what are they for?

    The truck is a 1970, if that matters.

    Mistery brackets, what are they for?

    Interesting, when did they quit making non-turbo Deuces? I take it, at a certain piont, all M35A2's came with a C or D turbo?

    Mistery brackets, what are they for?

    Bringing an old post back to life. :deadhorse: Another mistery MV piece. I was under the truck today, and I noticed under the cab on the inside of passanger side frame rail, there is a bracket with nothing bolted or attached to it. I take it, the bracket is for something obsolete.

    can anyone use these wheels?

    Dave, do you ever make it over to the Holland area? If so, I'd be interested in some.

    Dual Springer Suspension seats

    Here the pictures are. I used tent canvas to cover the seat cushions.

    Dual Springer Suspension seats

    There's about 14" of space between the bucket seats. So I'm going to cut down and modify the stock fold down passanger seat to fit between them. Kind of a small jumper seat, center console. With the backrest folded down, it'll give us some place to set food/drinks and what not, if we pull over...

    Dual Springer Suspension seats

    We bought in quantity so we could get a discounted price. I bought one for myself to install in the rear of my Bobbed Deuce. So that one isn't for sale. Another guy had bought one also for his Deuce, and SS member (gunnerbear) had bought the rest, one for his Deuce and the rest to sell. I know...

    J-pipe drain

    No need for pipe fittings or a ball valve. Just drill a small 1/8" hole, into the bottom of the J-pipe. That is all that's needed to keep water from pooling.

    Brush guard

    I like your bucket.....:beer:

    Dual Springer Suspension seats

    I didn't get the seats directly from MasterCraft. I got them from a guy on egay, that sold these and other military parts. He's located out of Florida, if you want to try and search. He had a couple dozen at the time when I purchased mine, but that was last fall. The seats, including the 4" seat...

    Melted Manifold with Torch

    I'd grind it down, and put everything back togather. It's right at the outer edge of the mounting/sealing surface, on the outside of the bolt anyways. You should be fine. Run it for a bit, then ckeck for leaks.

    Dual Springer Suspension seats

    I was tired of my old uncomfortable box seat, and the stock fold down seat next to it, was less than desirable for my wife/passengers. So I picked up two ugly springer seats and a pair of MasterCraft seats to mount on the springer seat bases. The drivers side seat base bolted into the stock...

    Welding on a vehicle

    I've never disconected the battery on a car, whenever I've welded on them. It shur wouldn't hurt though, I guess. As for the gas tank, if there isn't any leaks, and the tank is sound, you will not have any problems. On a side note...when welding on a vehicle, I keep a five gallon bucket full...

    Mistery brackets, what are they for?

    Another bracket, that I don't know what it's for. All three Deuces that I've owned had this, but nothing ever bolted or conected to it. What's it for?

    Finally bobbed and running again

    .030 of run out on a wheel is an acceptable tolerance, for something that's driven on the road at speeds.

    Cobra crane

    Great score. For what you paid, you stole it :cookoo:[thumbzup] Even with the time/money that you put into it fixing seals, hoses and what not, it'll be worth many more times than what you'll ever have into it. You did good.
