    How easy does your multifuel deuce start?

    I live in ND and we have a deuce that actually does work for its living and with good batteries and only using the manifold flame heater we have started that truck a few times down to 10 degrees with no problems. That flame heater is one the best starting aides I have ever seen, even though...

    Re-doing the Troop Seats

    The original wood was WHITE OAK to be picky! When I restored my Deuce I stripped the troop seats down to nothing and started from there, all metal parts were sanded primed and repainted then I was pricing out the white oak to replace the in bad shape original and found the price at the time...

    Shipping recommendation Tucson to Phoenix?

    I am not endorsing this BUT I have had very good results using USHIP to move trucks and products all over the country, prices have been reasonable and results have been very good. You have a tight time frame but I would bet they will have a driver who will get it done. Good luck KK

    Anyone recognize this 416 DoKa?

    I do understand the manual costs Newfisher that is about what I paid for both of the volumes for my 1300 and I griped a little bit trust me but when I really had to dig in to some maintenance issues they were worth every penny then. Are you going with PTO driven winches on your MOG or are you...

    oil leaking out wheel, what should i do???

    You REALLY need to take a look at the TMs on this site, when your asking if its gear oil on your tires that is a little concerning to me? These are old trucks we ALL need to be a little familiar with what is going on with them, They are going to break and we ALL need to have a rudimentary...

    Stewart Stevenson

    What model would you be looking at, it did not say in your post? You mention a modified tractor so I am only guessing but your thinking of a 1088? KK

    Wheels

    I would have to agree with Gimp the MRAP wheels are plenty heavy duty to do anything a Deuce can handle and the HEMMT wheels are WAY overkill in almost every way for a Deuce! KK

    Anyone recognize this 416 DoKa?

    Anyone recognize this 416 DoKa?

    Huge congrats Newfisher you are NOW one of the few on this site! Have you got your hands on the operators manual yet? You most likely are going to need it depending on your past Unimog experience? When do we get to see pictures? Karl

    Allison conversion to ATF

    Every thing I have read including quotes from the Allison folks points to the fact that they only want DEX III in that transmission! I looked at taking my truck to an authorized Allison shop in town where they would drain the converter and all the lines and refill everything with DEX III then...

    Mule

    not sure of what transmission is in that vehicle but absolutely NOT on the full RPM, I have been around mules that lived a good share of their lives at idle speed or just above! Check out the TMs on this site that may give you some good info! Karl

    Fluid preferences

    on every truck I own all the way up to an M920 I run Rotella 15w40 NON SYNTHETIC, I once tried running synthetic in my Deuce and what was said earlier concerning drips is 100% correct, I drained the synthetic and put rotella NON SYNTHETIC in all 99% of all the drips stopped. I have never tried...
