Great photo! Kids really make the truck and hobby for me..The way the axles float around on the torque rods, you would be the only one to notice. I cannot see anything dangerous, might hinder or improve traction a very little bit, depending on conditions. Glen

Here is one that I have been storing on my phone for a long time. I do not remember where I got it originally.

Is that a shortened deuce bed? I only see four stake pockets. Really nicely done truck though!

Looks like a great retirement ride!

We just picked one up, I think it is an 810 with a 12 foot box. It appears the same wheelbase as an M818. Glen http://www.steelsoldiers.com/conversations/75076-m35a3-recovery-m820a2-would-you-believe-m813-different-box-maybe.html

When you check the coolant, make sure it is clean without oil. Make friends with somebody that has a deuce and have them go along. Master cylinder is below that flap in the driver's floor. Check under it and the air pack behind it for leaks. Be sure to pinch the rubber boot on the pedal rod to...

When I was up at Deuceman51's in February, he had a whole pile of tubes there. You might give Troy a shot, freight would probably kill it though. Glen

Yeah Patrick, what is another 350 miles anyway? Piece of cake in that powerhouse of yours! 8)

I did that mind of mileage two days in a row on my Ellsworth recovery. I did not mind a bit! I would do it again tomorrow if I could! I70 is ten times busier than I90 though. I would hate to get drilled by a big truck. Glad you are talking next year.... Glen

Sounds like a good time to me. I gave up the first weekend in October already. We had a good man quit for more pay, hard to find fault in that! Days off will be hard to get until they get somebody hired and trained. Google says 425 miles by Interstate, I hate doing that in a deuce.... Glen

I got one M1009 from Utah, put 25,000 miles on it and all we spent in repairs was tires, filters and oil changes. I got one from Missouri and it had a bad lift pump. Shortly after that it was the filter base and return hoses. I got a M1008 out of South Dakota and it needed glow plugs. Then a...

I pulled a tach cable for you, send me a PM with your address and I will send it to you. This one is on me. Glen

It was just having a few hours of silence to reflect upon the consequences of this day ten years ago.

Hey! I think that one belongs in my driveway... very nice looking rig!

That is not a vertical wall. I do not have a Hummer, been around a few, my department has one, nice trucks. My thin wallet vs the cost of one is the only reason I do not have one, they are an awesome vehicle and very capable. It is obvious though, that set of ramps was made to display their...

Sure is a fine looking truck, no preview at GL would have caught that issue. All the way home, I was telling myself I do not need an A3, but yours was really impressive... nice and clean looking, I thought you were home free. Glen

I would stop at 1100s on the stock wheels. I know a lot of guys are running larger tires, but the bead seating is risky and designed for a different type of wheel, in addition to the width. A quick search will cough up a really in depth conversation over this. Glen

Mine have all been less than two weeks since my 70 day.deuce that I picked up in February. I work the 20th but should be available the 22nd if you want help with your deuce. The Manhattan Airport is close to base or I could flat tow it to Salina for you. I do not expect any payment for...

One is talking about a level wind, the other is talking about a device to wrap cable tightly on the drum...too much tension in this thread for me.....

Well.... It is back to work at the regular job today, play time is over for a few days. I wish I was headed for Riley again. Glen
