    BFR Metals, Salina Kansas, a Goodie Hole

    That is brutal to watch, he flips the trailer on its side, rips the aluminum boxes off and crushes the boxes and 820 beds together. Three is about all the Lebehrr wants to pick up. We send them nine on a semi trailer to the recovery shredder. The chassis goes separate, usually as a base for...

    BFR Metals, Salina Kansas, a Goodie Hole

    Everybody looks at those and wants them cheap. I try to be nice, but the sorry truth is that you can probably buy a nice 101 or 105 on Ebay cheaper than I can sell it to you. Tire and iron value makes it hard to sell trailers. I have sold a few 101s, but no 105s have left us yet. I sold a...

    differential fill plugs glued shut

    I am betting it is dried and hard lube you are seeing. We have been fighting a few plugs around here, trying to drain the five tons headed to the shredder. We found two guys working together really helps. Get good solid pressure on the plug with a breaker bar and then have your partner try to...

    BFR Metals, Salina Kansas, a Goodie Hole

    I had some fine looking green iron in the neighborhood and no time to go visit. One of these trips I am going to get to spend some time with my Grave Robbers.... I really wanted to give that Dodge and Deuce a good look over, just no time....

    New motor for the 09, what do you guys think?

    Are you still running 3.08 ten bolts?? I do not understand the need for wheel speed in a crawler, if your user name reflects intended use. At any rate, thestock axles are not up to big power and tires. You can get big torque numbers from a 4bt and torque is what moves your truck. If you are just...

    Just boguht my first deuce, what can you tell me about it?

    Moving a load does not bother me as much as stopping one. I have pulled many deuces with deuces. Trucking right along at 42 ish mph. I am one of the more conservative guys though, some here drive against the governor all the time. 2200 or so is plenty tight enough for me.

    Just boguht my first deuce, what can you tell me about it?

    DOT 5 brake fluid, buy some and carry it with you in the truck. I try to always have two pints. Excellent vehicles that are easy to work on. You can find anything you need here in the deuce forum. I had five a few months ago, down to three now. I drive one of them about every day. Welcome to the...

    putting a CTD into a m1008

    An early 90s would also have the Bosch rotary pump. Even so, with a 4.56 axle ratio, you would have stump pulling power. 89 to early 91 trucks were not inner-cooled, that would be my engine of choice for a M1008, or a 4BT to get more room. This is a project I would like to do as well, the 6BT I...

    air brake conversion

    Drive down, swap systems, axles and all, pay a little cash and drive home... We do not have any with CTIS though.

    Bone head award

    I earned my bonehead award a couple of weeks ago. I was using the deuce for air in the yard and had the throttle set around 1800 rpm, I climbed in and put it in second gear, just as my muddy foot slipped off of the pedal. I think my second gear key is now two keys, one half in the shaft and one...

    I drove my deuce through the salvage....

    Mid 70's Chevrolet truck fenders? We get those all the time. The problem arises in paying the guys to them off. We really are not set up to save anything. A 1999 Cadillac Sedan De Ville 4 door drove in, nice car missing the RF fender. In less than ten minutes the fuel tank, oil pan, transmission...

    I drove my deuce through the salvage....

    Yes they do, we had four drive across the scale and park this week. We also had four combines drive in and park. Seems a shame, one 715 International looked like it had been shedded since new.

    I drove my deuce through the salvage....

    I should have shot video of the other side of the drive as well, we have iron, lots of iron, lots of classic iron. The price has been up and the weather nice. The area farmers have been harvesting a different crop. Seems like we got an unusually large number of Internationals. There is a load of...

    Bone headed Winch move

    If you need replacement shackles, send me an address and I will mail them to you for free. All I ask is a small donation of some sort to the SS Benevolence fund. The lessons learned from your mistake are more than enough payment for me. Glen

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    Drive one 70 miles with no ear plugs and you will be talked out of it.
