    https://youtu.be/hEX9rlHQTFE looks like these guys know about medium duty truck rollbars.

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    One cannot 100% avoid rollovers. Someone pulls out in front of you in a little car, the car becomes a jump/roll ramp. Seen it.

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    I’m thinking about 6” square tube ROPS attached to the frame behind the cab. Perhaps some sort of bolted construction to allow some movement.

    Reconditioning M135 Wheels

    Look usable to me. Make sure all the ring to wheel mating/locking surfaces are good and the rings fit well.

    Where's AHAB ?

    I haven’t been around steam engines since I was a kid. Forgot how big they are.

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    I can only find them with a valve in the back end that corresponds to the valve core in the existing stem. I want them without for faster airing down.

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    What kind of extenders? I’m looking for some that work with then inner valve core removed for airing down for sand.

    KaiserM109 & Steelandcanvas' Excellent Adventure!

    Steelandcanvas, your PM box is full. I have a circa 1948 AC solenoid/contactor that releases the clutch/brake on a hoist in my shop giving me fits with chatter/bounce. Seems like one time you mentioned doing electrical, is that something you’ve messed with? Thanks

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    Sounds like I need to find a good shop. There are none within a couple hours, I don't think.

    Part number for the long style primary fuel filter

    Part number for the long style primary fuel filter

    Just make sure the center rod/bolt has the cross drilled pin hole and pin/washer to hold the filter at the proper height, up against the head, not sitting down in the bottom. Mine and others were found that way. Whole rigamarole is somewhere in my '62 thread in my sig I believe.

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    Soldered up the casing/shroud on my radiator a while back and have more leaks springing up now where the tubes meet the core. These radiators get to a point where it's not worth messing with?

    Any advice on weird tree spade conversion, in Upstate, SC?

    Look into the hose routing to see how hard it will be to re-route through the machine.

    Any advice on weird tree spade conversion, in Upstate, SC?

    Haggle with the info from Hydra. Buy it, take your time, do you homework, get the best deal on hoses. Best of luck, keep us updated.

    Understanding what the hydraulic head, retaining clip is on a deuce...

    Almost finished stronger clip forming die still here on my desk. I/we have been busy, but will try to get the last of it figured out and squeezed into the schedule.

    Yeah, yeah, I know, old thread...but I'd be interested in a green chainsaw.
