I removed the set up last Summer and put the lock out hub on the front of the second deuce with another I got from JT. The problem as jimmcld put it is tire spin. On pavement it is not a problem. On the slope leading from my house, gravel road, it spins and as Jimmy says in grass it spins a...

Somehow an 1100 mile road trip in a M816 does not sound fun.

This a bump for a good cause. We have had another couple of MV owners contact us to make the convoy to Gainesville. I expect to have my second deuce up and running after the head gasket change over. So, things are looking good on this end. I think there may be plans afoot for lunch in...

Pics of the homemade tool and the Snap On Torque Adapter. You can see visually the differences and the homemade tool is essential at the front of the engine.

If it works you will sell a number of the adapter kits fairly quickly, I suspect.

We got the heads off and decked about a week ago. This thread was most helpful in doing the job http://www.steelsoldiers.com/deuce/48620-head-gasket-repair-walk-through.html I got the idea for making a tool for torquing the driver side of the heads from this thread...

I think the price is right. Having built some two dozen I can tell you they will run about $90 each in dozen lots. So, with the other interesting stuff in the kit, the price is a bargain for anyone needing one. I also suspect you are right about the bigger parts vendors buying the other lots.

There were about 175 kits at OKC. They went in lots of 18 except for one of 17. Complete kits with rivets and instructions. They went for about $34 per kit. One sold on eBay the same day, same kit, $74 plus shipping. With the number of known gun rings held by civilians, not many, and the 24...

Sounds like a new engine will be needed. Sorry.

I ordered two of the #41378 elbows from O'Reily this morning. A bit more expensive than on line but they will be here before noon. I have plenty of paint from RAPCO so it will be a quick install.

The wisest thing said on this site in years.[thumbzup]

It is an easy install. I like the SCA factor in my filter in addition.

A pic of the gasket on removal.

There is a half track usually in the parade. A VERY NICE half track at that. I believe it is from Sherman. So, I do not believe there is a ban on tracked vehicles.

Pulled the heads off today. Number five cylinder has a part of the metal ring blown in to the cylinder area. Could not have been long ago that it let go. I will post pic tomorrow. It was the black gaskets.

Check out this thread for more information and some pics from last year. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/upcoming-events/49825-medal-honor-parade-gainesville-tx.html

OK, it is Medal of Honor Parade time again, this time on April 9, 2011. I have edited the first post in this thread to reflect the new information. Come join us.

A number of folks here suggested we invite all the MVPA in the Metroplex for a meet up. I am getting the email addresses now. Another suggestion made is we should, and do, invite everyone to join with Vietnam Veterans of America #920 at the Medal of Honor Parade in Gainesville, Texas, on...
