The tire size on my M-332 ammo trailer & my deuce are the same. (9.00-20)
Are the rims the same? Can I just switch the rim/tire instead of taking everything apart?
Thanks!
Believe it or not, my deuce leaks! What a surprise! :mrgreen:
Anyway, I was driving through a mild rainstorm & my feet got real cold....I thought, hmmm....maybe this thing does have a/c after all. But, when I looked down I saw water dripping all over them. Later on in my journey, ALL the...
I am having a LOT of people wanting to give me all of there used oil. Most are mechanics (pro & shade tree). Most oil is generated in large amounts very quickly.
My question is though.....A guy just called me and has about 150 gallons of oil that he has been collecting over the last 5 years...
I am amazed at how EASY it is to get FREE used motor oil!! :mrgreen:
I dont really want a bunch of 55 gallon drums stacking up at my house, so what is the best kind of tank for bulk storage or waste oil? Are the 275 gallon HHO tanks the best to use? Or would it be better to get a 1000+...
I have been given fairly large amounts of WMO in the past couple days....and am wondering what is the best way to get it from the auto repair shops to my house.
I bought a ROUND 275 gallon tank on skids and can put that on my trailer & go from shop to shop filling it up......but what is the...
I sent International Title Service the paperwork for my deuces on 06/19/2008 & recieved my paperwork back today (06/30/2008). I went right to the DMV & got 2 titles & tags with no questions asked.
I am VERY happy with ITS & there was NO wait for SF-97s

Won Auctions - 05/15/2008...
One of my deuces has EVERY troop seat post with a broken bow in it. Some are broken off flush with the top & some are broken off 6-12 inches inside. They will NOT come out no matter what I try.
I took the troop seat apart, inserted a new 1"x3" piece of wood and tried to force the old wood...
Maybe it is my imagination....but when I log into GL AFTER the auctions close every Thursday....the site takes FOREVER to load each page & most of the time it "times out" and I have to refresh each page to get them to load.
Then.....late Friday, the site magically speeds back up.....AFTER the...
My air horn sounded a little weird (I thought).....but since I never had an air horn before, I thought that it was normal. It was a loud wheezing sound....
Then it quit working. It just sounded like someone trying to whistle.....sort of like a lot of air w/no pitch.
SO, I decided to...
I pulled out of my driveway & got up to 50 MPH yesterday and had the hood fly up and smash into the windshield on my Deuce. I guess those little latches are there for a reason!
I also found out that the brakes will stop you very fast when you slam on them. ;) :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
BOTH the Deuces that I have are missing the same plug on the transmission.
Is it supposed to be missing? Or will I screw something up by driving them with the plug gone?
Also....one deuce has a cylinder on the bar behind the front axle & the other doesn't.....what is that for?
Thanks in advance!
Well.....I got a little excited with all the Deuces in Virginia today & bought a bunch of them.....10 to be exact.
hahaha.....lets hope my EUC gets approved again! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
I hope the following 3 things are minor problems.
I called the Virginia State Police today & told them that I just bought a MV & did not have a title......but needed to go to lowes for supplies for a pole barn. They said to slap "farm use" tags on it & check w/my insurance to make sure I was...
My 2 deuces came today.....and both started right up! I drove them off the trailer & all around my yard for 2 hours.
One has a whistler turbo & a cab heater......it will DEFINITELY wake my neighbors up :) :) :)
Here are some pics.....
What percentage of the 2 1/2 & 5 ton trucks from GL actually are roadworthy?
I know that they have dead batteries & flat tires a lot of the time, but other than that.....like big mechanical problems, etc?
Also, are certain GL sites draining all of the fluids out of them for some reason?
I...
Does anyone know what truck seats will fit in a deuce ? (from a junkyard....ford, chevy, etc)
Can you respond with pictures of any that you have installed in your deuces?
Thanks!

I posted an ad on Uship.com so someone will pick up and deliver the two deuces I bought. Has anyone had any luck with this site?

I decided this week that I NEEDED a deuce....and I was looking at them on ebay and craigslist, but ended up buying TWO of them from govliquidation this afternoon.
I have some questions....
1. Will a shipping company put them both on one trailer to save me $$$?
2. They are in Richmond, VA and...
I got 2 "new" tires from Berg's Military tires for $50.00 each & $78.00 next day delivery. They look BRAND NEW even though they are "used" with 95% tread.....
AND
A new paint job! HAHA......$30 worth of John Deere colored spray paint from Lowes....
I just bought a M-332 trailer and the tires are severly cracked & dryrotted. They look expensive.....and I am wondering where to buy replacements OR what other tire sizes might fit onto the rims?
Also, I want to repaint the trailer to match my John Deere tractor.....and I think it should be...
