Thanks for all the input everyone. The members on this site are a real asset! :D I felt kind of bad for not getting back (thanking everybody) immediately but winter is coming and I've been taking boats out of the water. As bad as I hate to, I'm going to drop the starter before the weather...

Before buying a deuce to be used as a daily driver run the rack on insurance. Every insurance company I've talked to about insurance demanded that I have a daily driver and have insurance on same. Collector insurance policies vary in their restrictions but they all require you to own and have...

Hey Russ81 --- I "LIKE" those wheels! [thumbzup] Who supplied 'em? Also --- what size tires are those. Lookin good! Santa Approves! ... Ho Ho Ho :)

I've got a situation with my Deuce that is worrying the he!! out of me. Every once in a while when I push the starter switch I can hear the starter engage but it doesn't rotate the engine. Usually the problem only happens once but there have been a couple of times that it's happened two times...

Dan Martin wrote: My standard LDT deuce j-pipe bolted right up --- no problems. As previously mentioned, my LDS came with a "D" turbo fo everything fit on the standard deuce exhaust. I don't know if the same applies to an engine that is equipped with a earlier waste-gate turbo. When we...

When an LDS is installed on a deuce the starter would be on the right (passenge's) side --- same as an LDT. The LDS applied to a 5-ton has a different bellhousing and therefore the starter on the drivers side. The oil pan is turned around, LDT pan plumbing installed, and the dip stick tube...

Though I don't build 'em I have to agree with Offroadworks. I made a 60 mile round trip from Orr MN to Crane Lake today and it was a pure joy. I put the tach at 2K and listened to symphoiny coming from the fire deck. Every once in a while, on a grade, the turbo would decide to whistle for a...

I recently installed two fuel pressure gauges. One reads between the in-tank pump and the primary filter. The other reads immediately after the primay filter. The pre-primary filter pressure is 6 PSI. Post primary filter pressure is just a little over 5 PSI.

Yesterday we swapped the stock "D" turbo on my bobbed LDS duece for a standard "C" whistler. Yes --- I know --- the "D" is a superior turbo BUT --- the sound of the whistler adds sooo much to the character and personality of a deuce. I couldn't tell any difference performance wise between...

On a "controlled" test with my bobbed deuce running an LDT-D engine at around 2,000 RPM w/395-85R-20s, spin out hubs, no fan and no canvas got a little over 12 MPG. I fueled in Cook MN and drove to Inernational Falls MN and back. The total round trip of 140 miles involves two stop lights ---...

All the FDC does is compensate for different fuels so the same amount of pedal can be used with different fuels. My fuel guage lies. Last winter I ran out of fuel with just a little under 1/4 tank showing on the guage.

Outstanding! I want one.
