    Tan over Green CARC

    I painted 3-4 deuces this summer & probably 8 deuce beds..... Use a 4"-4 1/2" grinder with a wire wheel. 10,000+ rpms REEEEEEALLY make a difference. Use Krylon red metal primer. It will cover everything. Look....

    Towing an M332 with a pickup

    Also.....go slow! It is a very heavy trailer & likes to bounce all over the road with every bump you hit. You will not be able to stop fast & maintain control. So if you come up on traffic, be prepared to swerve onto the shoulder.

    Towing an M332 with a pickup

    I towed mine over 100 miles home with my 06 F150. So your truck will be fine. The 332 has a military adapter for lights. Make sure you get a set of magnetic trailer lights at lowes/tractor supply so you will be safe. No brakes are required by law since it is a single axle trailer. Your car...

    Heavy pulling

    Very slight incline?? :? Ummm.....all of my deuces were delivered with a new landall sliding axle semi trailer & it was steep. Here are some pics. Gooooood luck with a deuce pushing 40,000 pounds up a 20% grade. I think that you best bet would be to get a track loader to push it up. 2cents

    Deuce Security

    Even though when I park my deuce, and chain up the steering wheel, I am always worried about a kid getting in & hurting themselves or others around it by switching the power to "on" & pressing the BIG RED button. OR.....simply pushing the parking brake lever down. I know full well, that if a...

    Non-whistling whistler...why?

    Some M35A2s have them.......it is a more powerful multifuel engine. It is the same multifuel engine that is in all the 5 ton multifuel trucks.

    best heater for the deuce

    Mike.....my one deuce has the multifuel heater & I have to keep the window rolled halfway down when it is on LOW & 30 degrees outside. rofl All the others that have heaters are the hot water ones & they are hot too....just no where near as hot as the multifuel one.

    M818 Making ODD noise while driving

    Sprag is what engages the front wheels (just like the on/off switch does in most M35s w/airshift). It senses slippage & auto engages the front axle. Some of my deuces have sprag. I hate it. BUT......for 818s, there is no other choice.
