    In tank pump failure, pics

    RangerDave, I had the same issue. I pulled my pump, had to fish out all of the shims and bottom screen and put it all back together. Mine was also blowing the fuse constantly. Once I cleaned out all of the contacts under the cover and made sure none of the wires or contacts were touching it...

    Right and wrong way to start a deuce

    LOL.....this is a funny thread. "can someone tell us how to shut it off now?" I know how to shut it off, just exit out of the thread. :wink: I don't see what all of the fuss is about in asking any question, even if it is in the TM. I enjoy the questions, they stimulate conversation, thought...

    Soft Top Repair

    I used the siding trick, it works fine. just as good as the original plastic channel piece. Cut to the length I previously posted. I made mine 3" wide/high, however you do not need to make it this wide. If I had to do it again I would only make it 2" wide, 3" pushes the top up to high and...

    Deuce Motorpool Type Restro so far

    Wow, that looks phenomenal! I really like the green/brown camo pattern without the black. How did you get all of the surfaces so smooth looking? Did you sand or power wash anything or just paint over existing? That looks really nice.

    Steering box replacement time!

    Wonder what if anything that did to the front drive shaft/transfer case when it pushed backwards and if it will bind.

    Steering box replacement time!

    Wow James, with that type of impact to shear the bolts like that just wondering if there is internal damage to any of the bearings, seals or the axel itself. Did the entire front axle shift over?

    Steering box replacement time!

    I have an A2. My wire is held in place with a rubber grommet type plug which fits snug, holds the wire in place and seals the hole it comes out of.

    MD/PA SS gathering at Appels compound

    Hmmm.......I got some flint lock crap from the revolutionary war, some cap and ball stuff from the civil war, a russian WWII sniper rifle, a 45/70 Sharps but all sounds boring compared to some of the stuff I hear is coming. And Judd, you bringing IV's for the hangover treatments?

    In tank pump failure, pics

    I changed all of the filters within the last few months and have not driven it a great deal. Starts right up over 40 degrees with barely a touch of the button. Under that she takes a bit to get it going. Under 32 degrees and it takes a lot of cranking. I run straight diesel. In really cold...

    In tank pump failure, pics

    Should that say too few would lower the output and too many would hit the impeller? Yes, I did fix my pump. Once I fished around and found all the shims I could find (3 or 4 I think) and put it all back together it is working. Not sure what the output pressure should be. When cracking the...

    In tank pump failure, pics

    Does anyone know the actual number of steel shims (volutes) that are supposed to be in this pump? When I found the bottom had fallen off of mine I don't think there were as many shims as are in the first photo of this thread. Will an incorrect number of shims affect the pressure output of the...

    Thars military steel in them thar parking lots. Was a nice time, great turn out. It was really nice that Deuce n a half dragon from Delaware and Krall from Pa. made it. I think if old Bob Evans found out they drove all that way just for breakfast at his place might make for some advertising...
