My experience is the level in the reservoir slowly goes down as time and shaking of the vehicle in moving vents the air. It then remains stable unless there is a leak.
I bought a 'double inverted' plug from Ace Hardware to plug the stock vent connection. It looks exactly like the stock connector on the end but is a solid plug. It seals just as well as the stock connector with the flared tube.
If I have problems with the rubber hose, I will convert the...
All you need is t the lock out, the axle and gaskets. The AVM lockout appears to be much lower cost than the Oueverson. Check with JT at jatonkam35s.com. That is the brand I have.
Remove the stock axle by unbolting the hub, put the dual splined axle, align the locker and bolt it in. That is...
I think you need to examine all the brake system at some point. Mostly, I fear a failure that I do not see coming. The brakes do not seem to suddenly fail, but do seem to fail over a period of time. BFS level checking is difficult on the stock deuce. That is the primary reason for the...

We got a M151a1 yesterday with a RT524, functioning on transmit/receive, and two PRC77 Squad Radios with it.
I am getting another to put on the deuce for parade communications.
I wonder what kind of FCC license it takes to be legal? Anyone know?
I discarded the stock filters after looking at the rusted condition of the cans after 30 years or so.
I will change the spin on primary and secondary next Spring. Not many miles but I am willing to bet lots of crud in them. Cheap and quick fix.
