    Spotted a cannon? while getting gas for my bobbed deuce

    Looks like one of these new ones I saw at FT. Sill, I would rather have one of the self propelled kind, you wouldn't be looking for a lift all the time.

    balancing tires with ball bearings?

    The last Deuce I got from the ARNG had antifreeze in the front tires, and I have used antifreeze in tractor tires for years, even when I worked for the USDA in college we used straight antifreeze in everything for weight and balance.

    Pioneer Tool Trailers at Camp Shelby, MS

    Pioneer Tool Trailers at Camp Shelby, MS

    Depends on the site and the day! At Shelby a soldier help me load the trailers with a 20k forklift, at Hooks a GL employee sat on a forklift while I winched two M105 up on my car hauler, they wouldn't even help me pull it our of the line of trailers! So it just depends on the location.

    Winch Propeller Shafts

    I found the two Winch Propeller shafts at a local junk yard, he had dozens of shafts but these were the only two that were OD and look usable to me. The smaller one I am pretty sure fits my M37 I am hoping the larger one(57 inches Long) will work in my Deuce, can anyone ID it? James
