    VIC-1 Installed....AWESOME!

    CARNAC, I wanted my box to be readily accessible, so I made up a bracket and put it under the dash. Have an extension cable for the headset so I can wear it while driving or be out of the truck on the pass side to operate the radio which is mounted under the seat. Didn't want to lose the bench...

    Windshield wiper question! Is this normal, or how to fix!?

    Clean and lube the plastic ones and then install a small plastic or metal air valve (a fuel shutoff valve for snowblower, rototiller etc. will work) into the drivers side wiper line. Get the passenger one operating at the speed you want and then slow the driver's side down with the valve. I had...

    fuel fired cab heater

    Put your coolant heater in the cab. You get way more heat quicker. By the time truck is up to operating temp, cab is nice and warm. BC

    Deuce volte meter in white range

    Get the wiring diagram out, troubleshooting procedure out, your multimeter out and go at it very systematically until you find the problem. You will find it faster than "shooting from the hip" and checking things randomly without knowing what is supposed to be what and what goes where...

    looking for filter numbers

    Check to see if the NSN'S for the filters are the same for the 03 as the 02? That shouldn't be too difficult to find I wouldn't think. BC

    Some history on the use of filtered motor oil in the Deuce???

    joesco, I've been running on road diesel and junkyard very bad gas that I filter twice through regular in line fuel filters. The gas is not particularly dirty, just very old. I then add cheap 30wt oil at about 20:1. No UMO though. Truck runs great and starts right up. Plenty of power also. The...

    Can someone educate him?

    Mike, I understand that. I was making a lame attempt at humor I guess about all the brouhaha over the CUCV key code business that goes on here every so often. I'll refrain from bad humor from now on:-D. BC

    Can someone educate him?

    Pintal question

    I understand what you are saying Sephirothq. I guess it depends on how one interprets his somewhat ambiguous description of the problem. I see it that the circumfrence of a cross section of the trailer lunette is too big to fit into the Deuce pintle. If in fact the center hole of the lunette is...

    Pintal question

    If you downsize your lunette, just make sure it is rugged enough to withstand the combined weight of the trailer and expected load. BC
