    1400 tires on Deuce

    Backspacing makes all the difference. I'm running re-centered 5 ton combat rims and 14.00's on my bobbed deuce and I've never rubbed anything and I have a M105 bed on mine and have gone in some pretty nasty stuff.

    What tires are these??

    Change the wheels and you can run 395/85/20 tires with no modifications. They are 46.7" tall by 15.4 wide and are well liked. Also a search will reveal numerous threads on this topic.

    Titling bobbed deuce in PA

    For Floridianson, in Florida Deuces cannot be registered as an antiques vehicles due to a 3000 lb limit on antique registrations.

    just put a radio in the deuce

    The great thing about not wearing hearing protection is if you don't wear it eventually you won't have to due to hearing loss. In all seriousness I've been around things that go bang and boom for 15 years and always wear hearing protection in training (not feasible in real life) and still have...

    What tires are these??

    http://www.steelsoldiers.com/5-ton-up/10498-bridge-truck-wheels-spacers.html Here's a good look at the bridge truck wheels and thier spacing. I'd check with Long's wheels and see if they can fab them up. I'm curious what a bobber would ride like with a set of dual 14.00's or 16.00's on the rear.

    Member Map Enhancement Suggestion

    If it was optional I don't think that most users would have an issue with it. I just use a general part of the state I live in but know a bunch of FMV owners from this site alone. The logistics of this are a completely different issue and I don't know anything of it. On a similar topic if...

    Deuce oil change at oil express!

    That's too funny. I took my F350 with a lift into my local place for an oil change one time because they were running a special and the guys said they couldn't do it because it was too big. Couldn't even imagine what they would do if I brought the Deuce in. I'm not a big fan of other people...

    Just FYI, I finally had a chance to drill the hole out for the glad hand and emergency air lines to pass through the frame and it is a 1" hole. Thanks.

    That's a heck of a deal and a nice way to console yourself over your loss. :D

    What tires are these??

    I don't think the wheels would be the issue with running duel 14.00's on the rear as much as the stress placed on the studs, hubs, axles, ect. ect. but hey give it a try I'd love to see it.
