Therein lies the rub. The remote filtering system by design CAN allow less oil to flow back to the oil pan, thus less oil to refill the system, thus less time to refill the system and achieve normal oil pressure. Consider these points: 1. The stock Deuce LDT oil pump, in good repair, and in a...

Here is a picture of the fuel density compensator both bypassed and in the original condition. You should be able to figure out the plumbing from here. For a better picture go to: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/index.php?name=PNphpBB2&file=viewtopic&t=356

It depends. If you have an airshift front axle and the locking hubs are disengaged, then no, nothing turns. It is just like a conventional 4WD vehicle with locking hubs and a selectable transfer case. With the the hubs unlocked and front axle de-selected, the front axle shafts, differential and...

First issue is not your problem (you could always ask first), except in the case of purchasing from a primary commercial seller (i.e., Eastern, Memphis, et al). IF the seller was the primary purchaser from the government, and IF they ask your citizenship status, and IF they know the regulations...

Don't know, never taken one apart. I was just quoting TM 9-2320-361-20. The TM lists the transfer case as "Rockwell, model T-136-27, two speed synchromesh, air actuated, drive ratio (high range) 1.010:1.000 rear axle, 1.078:1.000 front axle. I'd believe gringletaub over a TM any day of the...

New Bedford? Betcha can haul a lot of fish in the back of a 5 ton! I'm originally from Shrewsbury, made a lot of trips in my youth to New Bedford and back in a '59 Chevy El Camino pickup with a refrigerated box in the bed hauling fish to market. The truck was new at the time, just to put things...

To be technically correct (since you guys are slicing hairs out to 4 decimal places), the Rockwell T-136-27 transfer case ratio in Hi range is 1.010:1 .000 to the rear axle and 1.078:1.000 to the front axle (per TM 9-2320-361-20, pg 1-35)

The air shift can be shifted on the fly, as can the transfer case. The only problem with a Canadian purchasing a Deuce is that the seller would have to be the second owner since it was sold by the US Gov't. The first buyer, either a private party or a reseller like Eastern, Memphis, Oshkosh, et...

Re: RE: Re: RE: Snow plow recommendations And single out the rears for better traction!

Re: RE: Snow plow recommendations Easy to say, but probably not a good choice for a Deuce. As the plow size goes up, the beating that your truck has to take increases expotentially. The Deuce is underpowered as it is, fairly strong but not made to take that kind of abuse. Might work in easy...

Re: RE: New paint and a visit with the highway patrol... There are a couple of manuals in the TM section - TB 43-0147 Camouflage Patterns and TB 43-0209 Camouflage Painting - which give pictures of how the patterns are applied. CUCVs, HMMVEEs, M1 Abrams, Fire Trucks, Compressor Trailers, even...

Wreckerman, you are one lucky dude! Thats a steal. You guys down south are real lucky to be able to get old green iron so cheaply. I was quoted $2000 just to transport my Deuce 240 miles to get it home. Fortunately, I was able to drive it back! Maddawg - That is NOT a gun turret, it IS the...

Re: New paint and a visit with the highway patrol... Me too! I've been pulled over a couple of times to get checked out also. Mostly, I think they just wanted a close up look at the truck, although one of the officers remarked that he wanted to make sure I was NOT part of the Michigan Militia...

Hey, Opie - Where (City/State) did you pick up your stuff from Rodney? All I've heard about him seems to indicate he has a couple of business locations, in far a way from Michigan places like Iowa and Florida - not the type of locations that are a casual drive from Boyne City, even if it was for...

I think Rizzo and a couple of other guys out here have dealt with him, no complaints that I am aware of. All his tires are used take-offs, some may have a slight flat spot, but most all seem pretty decent. I'd try Rizzo or someone on the Off-Road Chat 6x6 Forum for more info...

Taken in order, and assuming you have a M35A2, the "03" signifies your truck was built in the third lot of M35A2 trucks produced. The "03" lot was produced in 1968-1970, and SHOULD have a Kaiser-Jeep data plate. The "25" is the type designator, in this case a M35A2 without winch."24681" is the...

Steamynachos tried ordering them from Saturn, but they will not ship the Evil Empire of Canada, which is where he lives. Hence the chainsaw comment, UPS is a PITA to work with on international shipments.

Kenny - your appellation of "Fleet" Admiral wouldn't happen to be related to "Fleet" enema, would it?

Got a pair of spare 60A alternators, haven't even thought of pulling a pulley off. Give me a hint on how it happens and I can probably work something out with you. I generally prefer to trade parts, but cash always works as a last resort! PM me if you are interested.

Love that Rustoleum! I had to special order the medium brown to match my truck, but yours looks real nice with the earth brown. Looks like I need to change my brown paint next touch up job. That 3 color camo vinyl top looks great also! Is that a stock Deuce cover, or did you have to cut down and...
