    HELP!!! Need Pulled Out of the Mud - (houston) Pasadena, TX

    Went off road in a field in Pasadena (Houston-ish) area. Ended up stuck pretty good. Thought my front axles were pulling but seems that they weren't even though I had the switch locked in. SO - anyone want to come help give me a tug or have any ideas? I can't winch out because the winch is...

    filter set on e-bay

    I have bought several parts including the filter kit. So far I have changed the oil filters only and will do the fuel filters while the truck is down getting a wheel cylinder replaced (also bought from the same member). Only thing I noticed was the oil filters didn't seem as sturdy as the...

    One man winch operation?

    Once you understand the mechanics of the drum clutch on the Deuce, I can't think of a single good reason or time to throw that lever with the PTO engaged. The only reason *I* did it is because I openly admit I didn't know WTF. I don't mind embarassing myself if it keeps someone else from...

    Steering wheel deterioration?

    You know - my hands always end up pretty filthy after a drive too but I never figured it was the wheel. Interested on what others have to say.

    One man winch operation?

    I have run my winch once. I'm embarassed to say that I did exactly what the OP is talking about. I threw the outside drum clutch lever in with the PTO running. I think I'm lucky to be alive/unmangled. The truck overpowered its parking brake and started moving. I had to cross the...

    I Love My Truck

    Now that is the best reason Ive heard so far! I might be up for it if I could join up with a group in the Houston-ish area for the drive.

    I Love My Truck

    Nooo but the bbq pit on my race car's exhaust cooks racks of ribs that are hose clamped to the muffler. After about 2 hours - you have the BEST baby back ribs EVER.

    24 volt beacon

    Anyone bought the Saturn Surpluss light? When it says it comes with wiring - what do you get? Everything you need? Ive looked around and can't find a close up pic of the correct way to mount the convoy light. I want to add a convoy light to my Deuce but would like to keep it "correct"
