    truck plate

    Most often, I'v seen them mounted on the metal part of the rear mudflap. However, the ridges that run from top to bottom, while seemingly a good place for the bolt holes, are about 1/4 inch too narrow. What I did to solve that is to get some flat strap at Tractor Supply and drill the...

    Tire safey after flat

    It's likely that the lock ring is still in place, but unless you can see that it is for sure, then thats a RED FLAG. And catastrophe could result as the ring cuts loose. The thing that I'd be concerned about is that the tube and flap, when deflated fell into and bunched up inside the tire, which...

    M35a2 in tank fuel pump

    Yep, I'd check the fuse. When I got my Deuce it had the guage pannel stole and the old owner had bought another complete unit with all the nessesary guages etc. But none of the lights worked on the Deuce either, very verry dis-heartening to know I faced such an uphill battle before me to get all...

    How much does a deuce bed weigh ?

    I'm with Jeli, I too would think that a Deuce bed would make such a perfect bed why not.... of course you'd need to buy steel for the frame rails, say 8"x 1/4" Chanel, or square tubing or whatever you can come up with that would suit the purpose of rails. It wouldnt be 'low' but it would be...

    Stopping Distance

    I'v often thought about the consequece of a Dolt behind the wheel and the damage I could cause to everything but the gene pool, and have been toying with the idea of relocating the carrier and spare under the front, just as close to and under the winch of my Deuce as I could to still maintain...

    My mule before and after

    Outstanding work. as a Stock unit enthusiast 'purist' I'd prefer NDT tires, however that is quite moot..... the Mule is very nicely done and I'm sure quite coveted in our circles. Be nice to have to adorn the bed of a Deuce.

    Coleman's Surplus Snatch Blocks

    Now thats alot better than whats available from Tractor Supply ot Harbor Freight, and likely to have USA stamped on them.......... Are there many left and are they priced right? In the long run the price is probably justified anyway.

    Deuce to be sacrificed....unless

    Your to be aplauded on your concern of not unnessesarily destroying yet another Deuce. Not berating Bobber owners however.

    NC. Beach Driving for MV's

    Well it seems the tree people and audoban and all the wack jobs would just as soon see that no-one gets to drive their vehicles of any kind on our PUBLIC beaches or coastal areas. Well having a Deuce, I would like to take a trip and drive the beach sands here in North Carolina. Just an easy, top...

    How safe to tow a Deuce with another Deuce?

    I see your in Texas, I say tow it, heak stop every 25 miles and check it out, it's only a 2-3 hour deal coming back, if that, take it easy, it should be a non event really.

    Spacer block size for Bobbed Deuce

    Going through 'SEARCH' this is the responce most used.Width of axle x width of spring.......though not recomended by many in the forum who have done Bob's because of wind-up. Also in some states not legal.

    What could we feed our trucks when in a life/death situation?

    If the Apocalipse comes, where out of town are you going......????????? Think you can play Grizzly Adams or something? It's likely the recorses out in the hills or mountains or desert are already marginal at best, or were before the Apocalipse started. The best bet would be to form a group of...

    Pop-up campers

    I'd say, put an add in the 'Green' sheet, or whatever (FREE) area newspaper and see what turns up. Theres gazillions out there just setting rotting away, some still good, just needing to be got rid of by their owners. Some forclosures and such types desperatly needing to clear off thir property...

    NO POWER 30mph top

    I changed the filters including the primary, and imediatly found a considerable amount of lost power now available. However I am running used motor oil, heating oil and some stale gasoline. In short order, say 10-20 miles again I could feel top speed reduced by what I assume the primary filter...

    No critisism here....but........yea there's always a but, the liability issue is a concern that I would be warry of. Just as alot of automotive resto parts are sold as offroad only items, you may skirt the legaleese.. They look fairly simple. The pintle loop might be suspect....mabe, mabe not...
