Howdy and welcome from Northern edge of Colorado. Sounds like a good purchase-like to see pics if possible.

Did you try undoing the front engine block mounts a little? if you can raise the front of the engine just an inch it may be enough. not too hard if you can get a good lift on the engine without mucking up the oil pan. by the way, great job moving radiator out of the way without disconnecting...

plenty of elbow room too! I suppose a small beverage container and lounge chair would be over the top.

howdy, welcome to the site from northern colorado. you might also look to past threads (and current) to see if you can find info as someone else may have already been through what you are asking about. pictures are always helpful to you and others.

Hgun--interesting---as the "parking brake" is actually on the transfer case not the drive wheels. that wheel may not be the problem. next time check the drum brake on the back of the transfer case for heat and smoke. if it is always hard to apply the parking brake it is likely the pads are...

I remember going thru this last year when I did my gaskets and resurfaced the heads. I found that the development of the engine design was such that it predated a change in "standard" thread designs. seems about WWII the standard of one single thread type was deleted. guess which one. I have...

Wolffrag86--other than having the petition only exist in cyberspace, is there an option to forward it to the legislature in colorado as well as the director of the colorado department of revenue?

Having been to the DMV in colorado and asking fairly detailed questions as well as following the various bills in our congress, it seems apparent that the big problem is our state director of revenue. She has taken it upon herself to re-interpret the laws that was passed and decided it means no...

Thanks. good to see the old war horses getting to do what they were built for. she looks in her prime. looks like you have some parts to a m108?? another project?

While I can understand why someone from present times would not want to describe the fact that all oil drains back to the pan on shut down of the engine as a "design feature", nevertheless, it was, I believe, part of the design of the engine. a lot of harleys for example, currently have this...

If you have never done the board method of cutting off the engine's air intake before, there are a couple things to remember. if you take the mushroom cap off the air cleaner body and block the remaining big hole with a board it may not kill the engine. there is a second hole on the rear of...

I think KIA, the car manufacturer we see in commercials, makes an "A3" or "A4" version of the deuce that is used in Korea? If so this could be something they use. Perhaps someone converted it from Korean parts. Otherwise, those look like fairly large tires for an A2 deuce so some rubbing...

Congratulations. The good part is well worth the effort it took. To have your "tiny's" be a part of it, no words can describe.

F N A--not sure where its gone but it sure is gone. What I wonder is where did my body go. sometimes my brain still feels like an 18 year old kid. my body never does any more. some memories are so vivid its like it happened yesterday. usually the ones that you half chuckle at, half dang...

Rolling Thunder 19--I assume you close both valves to remove the filter. But have you noticed any draining with your bypass line to the heater core/ filter when you remove the filter? seems like it would need a shutoff to prevent drain back from the water pump connection?

TAZZJR--I did a head job and replaced all the gaskets. several accessory mounts, the air compressor included, presented some challenges. If you are referring to two of the four large nuts on the compressor mount studs holding it to the mounting flange on the block, you have two options...

So, after you revived your old thread it made me curious about what happened to the deuce? any backstory?

It occurs to me that these might benefit from a group purchase. I have not explored the possibility with ARP or anyone else. But seeing as how pretty much everyone that owns a deuce long term will likely have to do this at some point whether its because of gasket failure, freeze plug failure(...

upon further checking the old neighborhood is bigger than I remembered!!!!! well anywho, here is a more accurate total 14 long studs at $13.69 ea =$191.66 8 med studs at $12.76 ea = $102.08 6 short studs at $7.30 ea = $43.80 28 washers at $0.96 ea = $26.88 28 nuts at $9.36 ea = $262.08 total...

my quote was for the black oxide but I think you can get them polished or stainless IIRC longest stud-AQ 6.500-1LB 9/16" diam 12TPI base 18TPI top black oxide $13.69 ea medium length stud AQ 6.120-1LB diam 9/16" 12TPI base 18TPI top black oxide $12.76 ea short stud AQ 3.475-1LB diam 9/16"...
