    Call Jesse at High Angle Driveline. He has made all of my Deuce shafts. Does a bang up job for cheap. Measure from flange mount to flange mount. That was all I've ever needed to do.

    come get WMO San Diego

    I'll be in Paradise in a couple weeks to look for a house. As for loading it in the back of your truck I loaded it with my cherry picker. And it comes in the barrels. I have a few extra of those too.

    Thanks for the info. I am looking forward to the drive. My son and I are going to make it. We did it a couple years ago but we were in a rush then and did it in 48 hours. This time we're going to take our time.

    San Diego to Gainesville Fl June

    I've got 12 months left as long as head quarters Marine Corps approves my retirement. I'm ready to move on to something else. My aircraft have been retired so I am obsolete.

    Just got free UMO

    I have been running UMO and U trans fluid for a couple years now with no problems. I filter it down to 3 microns and keep a spare set of filters in the truck too. The truck runs great on it.

    I am headed to Fl using I-10 in June. I'll be leaving San Diego if any one needs anything moved across. Within reason. I will be driving my Deuce with my 79 Ford on the 34 ft trailer behind me. So I can haul some small stuff generator size or smaller. Just let me know.

    Does anyone live around Gainesville Fl. I am thinking about moving back there in 12 months when I retire. I am from High Springs and will be looking between there and Gainesville for a house.

    I had the same problem. It was the modulator. But I changed the vacuum lines first hoping for the simple fix. Good Luck.
