G'day everyone,..... Ok,.. so I have been having some fun with my Deuce since I got it but hey,... who wouldn't right? Ever since I have had it I have not been able to undo the cap on the battery jumper port. I have soaked it in penetrating oil etc but cannot get it undone. I do not want...

G'day everyone,.... That's why you should always use properly rated equipment for the right load/ weight etc,..... Aussie.

G'day everyone,..... Just found out this morning my M105A2 and tow bar is on its way home. Should arrive around the 26th of this month and I may get my hands on it within a week of that date. Aussie.

G'day everyone,.... Thanks, I'll look them up as I think these are a great idea, wouldn't mind having some on hand here for a few projects of my own. Aussie.

G'day everyone,..... Well I can see how you can remove them if you can get behind them to give them a 'tap' to drive them out,.... But if they are flush into a solid face you cant get behind,...? I did use 'vise-grips' on a couple but that was once they had already been backed out till...

G'day everyone,.... Interesting twist,... When I took a close look at the back of the top plate I see the what I thought were rivets have a thread! So if they twist into the plate then I should be able to drive them back out,....? So I took my small hammer and gave one a technical tap on...

G'day everyone,.... Today I took the top plate off my Deuce as I am going to replace the data plates on it. The bolts came out more easily than I thought they would. The only thing I am thinking now is,.... the rivets that are on the top plate now have rounded heads and I want the same...

G'day everyone,..... Last week I got a 1 gallon bottle of DOT 5 brake fluid for my Deuce, cheaper ordering it from the US than getting it here,... I pay $65.00 for a 600ml bottle here. I can get a gallon bottle for $100.00 AUD from the US. Oh, and I got a couple of NBC stickers for the air...

G'day everyone,.... I guess the inside of the engine should be clean by now, no built up soot deposits etc,... Should idle smoother now I bet? Aussie.

G'day everyone,.... I would have thought you already would have the cable to extend you winch cable, I would think its lighter than chain? Oh and have you tried how long your electric winch will run on just the batterys alone under load? Aussie.

G'day everyone,..... The major down side with an electric winch is that with no engine running to keep the batts charged or more accurately the alternator supplying the power you only have the batts capacity to run the winch till the batts go flat. If you do have the engine running then for...

G'day everyone,.... That looks bulky compared to the PTO winch. The only down side to a PTO is if your engine isn't running (or broken) you have no winch. I do think though that an electric winch would be good for the rear of a Deuce. A little more compact so mounting should be easier and...

G'day everyone,.... :( Pity its not real,... but nice anyhow. Very well presented. Aussie.

G'day everyone,.... WOW! Awsome truck. That a BAR in the rack? Aussie.

G'day everyone,.... Congratulations on the solution. Now have fun with your Deuce and don't forget the pictures to share! Aussie.

G'day everyone,.... Your talking the primary fuel filter here right? The one at the front right corner just inside the chassis rail? Aussie.

G'day everyone,..... Ok,.. Its official, I'm stumped,.... Got the lower hose off at the radiator but for the life of me I can't get to the upper clamp at the water pump. I resigned myself to having to remove the generator to get to it but the bolt at the front bottom I can't get to because...

G'day everyone,..... I think the word is: Detrimental! Aussie.

G'day everyone,.... Tomorrow is ANZAC day for us Aussie's. After the morning service I am going to work on my Deuce from lunchtime for a few hours. Aussie.

G'day everyone,..... Sounds good to me,... Right now my poor Deuce is sitting in storage with the lower hose removed just waiting for me to put the new hose ON. I ran out of time last time I worked on the Deuce and have been side tracked with other isues since. Its now been about 6-8 months...
