    Not HI This is not the "Pineapple Express" from HI but rather a local find. This is a truck I have been watching for several years that came direct from Aberdeen's proving ground. It is dark but I will go snap some pics of the ESP tag and Allison 7 speed indicator. Justin Wehring 979 997 3112

    Anyone know a good shop in Tucson area for new Deuce?

    Tucson I just googled you. I will be passing through there with a 5 ton mid April. I can stop by and help you with the hubs as it only takes about 30 min including time to properly torque them. Order a set from Ouverson engineering ~$600. Justin Wehring 979 997 3112
