    Differences between 1950's 60's and 70's deuces

    I am 8000 miles away from it now but I am pretty sure my 43 CCKW and my 45 DUKW have the same strange shift pattern as my 71 Jeep 2 1/2 ton. If you want a real strange shifting experience start out in low range and shift to high in a Unimog. Eddy

    Any way to make the tracks last longer?

    OK last fall I bought new tracks and have them stored untill one or both of mine break but wow at over 3K with shipping and duty and about 1500 miles in a set of tracks that adds $2.00 per mile to operating costs for this thing. I know they are just costly toys but again WOW. I think it will...

    Is it ok to run my deuce on methanol?

    I would think if the Alch% was high you could add it to Gas and burn it in a Gas truck. I think its too dry for a Multi.
