What kind of restrictions did Gulfway have? I'm insured with them, and don't believe I have any.

You have to remember the TM's are written for people that may not be as educated as most, I'm sure the writers wanted to make sure everyone concerned could understand the text. No, the Towbar TM is not included with the Deuce TM's. The TM is: TM9-4910-593-12&P Medium Tow Bar, keep a copy of it...

If you do a search for the 5 ton 800 series control box, you'll find a very good article written by Cranetruck, complete with schematic.

Thank you Gentlemen, for a very interesting and enlightening tread.

Do a search for "Insurance", lots of info there.

I read some of the reviews, one big drawback: The unit does not come with a line cord, you have to physically plug the "brick" into the wall or connect to an extension cord. I do like the 5 year warranty though.

Not mentioned yet, but be sure and check the plumbing underneath the hood, especially around the compressor itself and the governor on the firewall.

I'd like to see some photos of that.

I do have part #11.

I'll have go out and look to be sure, but I don't think you'll get it by Sunday.

I stripped the exhaust off of my old N/A Deuce and I think I still have the parts. Get me a photo of exactly what part you want, and if I have it, you can have it for the ride.

16HP @ 1800RPM @ 5000'ASL. Straight out of the TM. Even the way the Military under-rates their equipment, it wouldn't even come close to 50-60HP.

In Colorado, we put our efforts into not being required to display a tag. We still register and insure, and are required to have the plate in our posession, but displaying is optional.

It has 2 poles, I have referenced that several times in my posts. The drawing shows the poles and what they control. Yes, it is just a simple on/off switch, it is no more complicated than that. Edit: Keep us posted with your progress on this project, I'm sure others would be interested in it.

Here's where I got that information:

I need to make a correction to my post on the load connections to the ignition switch. I tried to recall them without consulting the schematic, bad idea, the memory isn't what it used to be. One pole of the switch controls the following items: low air buzzer, front wheel drive switch, gauges...

Most hi-performance auto parts stores that have a machine shop will balance clutches and engine parts for you. Balancing your clutch will eleminate one more source of vibration, and will prolong the life of bearing and seals. I strongly recommend the balancing of rotating parts.

The switch Bob showed the specs for is a single throw, double pole. I would assume both poles will handle 10 amps each. If you use the keyswitch, you most likely will still need a double pole relay. Put the current at the relay, not at the keyswitch, let the keyswitch control the relay. The...

As Drew pointed out, the in tank lift-pump pulls 6 amps, that leaves you with gauges, (small draw), and the starter solenoid. 6 amps plus the headroom required of the solenoid, you'll be right at or possibly over your 10 amp maximum. Best to use the relay and avoid headaches down the road. Nice...

They are several manufacturers of high amperage cut-off switches. I just looked at a site a few weeks ago with a selection of very nice switches, but I'll be danged if I can remember the site now. If you are still set on the keyed ignition switch, you should have that switch actuate a relay to...
