Hi Mike,
I haven't forgot that beer I promised you when I get back up to the Northwest around the Kelso-Longview area. I just wish I could have made it up there before Big Mike moved back down here. Need to visit Reuben (Big Elk?) in Oregon too.
They are $10.75 for the 2 decal set.
Go to my...
A long time away and I do miss my OD fix and friends here.
As noticed in this thread I tried to make the Tow Bar decals as close to original as possible.
Through much back and forth and help from fellow SS members I have the NSN # of the tow bar for the Deuce as "NSN 4910-01-365-9304".

Hey Will (and all the guys). I was this: [---] close to going. Not with my Deuce but just in a rental SUV with all my camping sh*t and some of them cleaning tools ya'll mentioned. Was even going to bring that long armed thing that you can sit on and it throws trash at any angle. Dang.
I've...
I got mine at Napa. Interstate Workaholic U6TL.
They ain't cheap at $189.99 retail but I get them at their cost since I letter all their delivery trucks. They're even OD Green.
Your mileage may vary.
Hey BP,
When I first got my deuce I was reading in the old forum and one of the guys saved my driveway as I was contemplating draining my oil.
The posting from the guy told of using a 5 gal bucket under the front one first and let 'er rip! It filled up the bucket and overflowed on the...
I was thinking they were ground anchors of some kind, but the ones for the 5 ton wrecker look like this (attached)

Leonard, did you see this?
Will,
I would be interested in knowing what that triangular piece is for in pic # 5. I forgot to ask you that when you were gathering them.
Any chance you could go next Thursday (the14th)?. I could meet you there or even pick you up on my way out with the trailer (so there would be extra room)...
As always, it was a great time to meet new members, see old ones again, and rummage the new stuff at the junkyard. The Shrimp Cocktail and Tacos are just the icing on the cake.
There is a chance that I have my deuce sold (for a good price) so I didn't hunt for deuce equipment. I mainly went...
We are supposed to get a sprinkle tonight with clearing Sat afternoon/evening.
That will keep the dust down and clean dust off of parts not under sheds/tarps. :-D
I am bringing Hole a battery box that he needs and an empty tummy so that I can have a few tacos for Big Mike :stir pot: and my...
Whoops! I am such a 'tard. Have to look at the calendar before hitting send next time.
Yup 3rd. Hope we have another great turnout like last time.
Hole - Come on out and I'll give you that extra battery box that I have.
Well the California Poppy's are a sproutin' and it's still on the cool side in good ol' Fontana. So it's time to head to our favorite MV Junkyard.
Just spoke to (Brother) Will Wagner and we would like to invite any and all SS members to join us in a day of scrappin'.
Event to take place on...

The 2 tanks in the parade were really cool.
Thanks to Will Wagner (Hole) for showing up. Had a great time talking to him and meeting some of the other guys with the green iron like Frank and Armytruck63.
As I...
Thanks Devin,
It really is a good event. Not a long parade but a great crowd and excellant participants.
Maybe we can make it an event for the local Fontana Junk-Yardin' Groupies to participate in next year.
We really have a good time and there is so many people that come back to the American...
Hi Will,
Ratz! So understandable.
Really looking forward to letting the old Deuce stretch it's legs this weekend.
It's running great with the new (Ahem!!!) expensive Interstate U6TL Batteries in it.
It starts right up and is running excellent.
I'm ready to scare the daylights outa the POS So...
Well all details are finalized. If any So Cal member wants to enjoy the parade and see some great M.V's back on the road here is your chance. A large contingent will be there from the nearby March Air Force Air Museum with their vehicles.
The other Will (Hole) and myself are participants. If...
