With some help from my lil buddy we removed emoved all of the CTIS Junk from my wheels today, now I can see which ones still leak the worst, and replace them with good known spare wheel/tires that I have .
So much cleaner w/o that stuff on there, I shall paint them up proper when paint is...
Yes the long floor lever in between the seats is neutral halfway up, which does indeed disengage the drivetrain .
Yes blackout turns off all headlights and turns on a little baby light on the front that you can barely see .
The dimmer switch is on the floor over to the left where it should be...
Actually all you need to do is just get a 5 ton and a tow bar, and then when you get there your Deuce will have someone to talk to .
It's a well known fact that they don't like to be alone .
I was just thinking of that and I would have to concur, my old Deuce is a 63 Studebaker and the spare cable I have is out of a 68 Kaiser .
That old truck is not around anymore to compare to or see what type of handle it had, but when it comes to these Deuces it's often NOT a one size fits all...
I do believe that those cables are still available, however something you need to be aware of is getting the correct cable .
I have a used one off of another Deuce I used to have, and it will not fit my current deuce .
The outside sheath is the same but the internal cable is shorter and I...

I got new shoe fiber from Big Mikes motor pool about 5 or 6 years ago, if you get just the fiber like I did...
Maybe Jack it up and start turning things to see exactly where the noise is coming from, it's more than likely just a wolverine or a honey badger stuck in your wheel .
I pulled this old 53-ft trailer out of some blackberry bushes for a guy, took him fit longer to figure out where to put it than it did for me to get it out and move it .
Sounds like you're compressor is no longer compressing, or that control valve isn't as good as it appears to be .
Maybe the Rings are stuck, get a little bit of ATF or Marvel Mystery Oil down in there without hydraulicing it and see if you can get things to loosen up or if starts to make air...
I bought two pair of these led for 64 bucks (4 lights total) put them in my old pickups, work great .
Before that I bought different looking ones and put them in my Deuce and 5 ton years ago, they still work great I would never go back, cheapest ones I could find, they're all made in China ...
Welcome
You live on Maui and you still have a house ?
Reason I ask is because the news over here on the mainland shows pretty much the entire island of Maui burned to the ground, with the exception of Oprah and Bill Gates houses, they got saved through some miracle along with some other rich...
Well if they are Dana axles and they still have the tag bolted to the cover it has a long number on it called the bom number that will give you detailed information from Dana and will break down every part in the axle including years used .
If the tags are missing there's also the same number...
