Has anyone tried a fan clutch on the M35? Is there one that can be adapted? It seems to me that after 40 years of service that would have been a great item to increase power. The first that I saw on a vehicle was in the 1970's I think. I am amazed the deuce never had one.

Just putting the two types on you notice the Monroe has plastic ties to prevent it from expanding until you have it in the holes. You pull the Mil Surplus to lengthen it to fit in the holes. I think the Monroe is in constant tension, where the Mil Surplus is not. I am not sure which, if...

I got them from eBay some time back and I forget how much. They are listed now at $62.50 per shock, but I did not pay that much as I recall. Maybe $65 for the pair. I do not think they are as good as the Monroe gas. They maybe, but I do not know yet. In fact, neither may do more than just...

Mil Surplus. If I were to do it again I would use civy gas shocks. But, I got these and will try them out. Probably will not make much difference anyway.

I changed the front shocks on the second deuce today. I came in and washed up for dinner. I seemed sweaty for some reason after the shower. I looked and it was 97 degrees.:shock: Oh, well, at least the diesel will not jell tonight.

I assume the co2 will work, just less pressure. I looked about for the nitrogen cartridges but did not look too hard. WallyWorld is just to close and cheap. I found this site has nitrogen cartridges. https://morebeer.com/view_product/18310 But one costs more than five of the co2 at WallyWorld.

I am giving this a bump to remind everyone the parade is next week. We are getting really good responses from this site. Thanks for the assist.

I am planning for winter here also. I will get a new pair of sneakers, I think.:-D

I was startled to see this thread at the top of the list this morning. We are experiencing the first signs of Fall here and the afternoon temps have cooled to the mid 90's. A great relief from the 102+ highs of last month. I first thought that something must be happening to diesel fuel that I...

I had a decon bottle that was mostly complete and the mount already installed in my second deuce. It did not seem right to me, however. After observing more closely some NOS bottles I realized mine did not have the propellant cartridges on the mount or bottle. A trip to WalMart, co2...

The Vietnam Vets, Chapt. 920 and I will be joining up for the North Texas Fair Parade around 9am August 22. Any local MV owner is invited to participate with us. Contact me thru this site if you want to participate.

I have never seen anything close to organized here. If you find it, post it so we can all see it.

I wonder if that is why I do not make mistakes? :wink:

I do not make mistakes so that could never have happened with me.

It probably sounds stupid, but have you tried hitting it with a hammer when pressing the starter button? Sometimes that shakes it loose. Sounded crazy to me until I tried it two years ago. The starter has worked fine since.:-D

I would have painted the rear of the brace before installing it. Why not do it now?:roll: Glad to see one installed. First one I have seen.

That is a circuit breaker. It is available from TNJ Murray or Saturn.

I haul local candidates for public office in parades just to piss off other local candidates. It works really well. :-D

V V A 920 has one of those tops for anyone interested.

Do you have one or two hydravacs?
