Bottom line besides spelling and all.......I remember the threads here on SS a while back, with pictures and extensive input on absolutly correct methods to turn the fuell up, ie. how many flats and the like, along with the need for pyrometers etc but I'v spent about a half hour or better...
I'm somewhat confused here....I was working on my Duce here and there on the guages and the wireing used looked to be ten to twelve guage, relativly largr as wireing goes?
You might check out this method of sandblasting that uses 'Soda' as in baking soda, for the removal. It works differently, in that the soda particals explode on contact with the media they are being used on, thus the abrasion of coarse sand does not pit and dig into the metal on the duce, also...
I did a fiew months in W. Germany in 74, loved the beer and 'ah'em' other things available that GI's entertained themselves with. Hope you can find yourself a Duce over there.
If you think about it, the price's not that much, try that with any nice wheels from Jeg's or Summit racing or online distributors. $285 not bad, I guess its the shipping thats the vampire in the $1400+ price. Well 'COOL' were all jelous.
Really, it just seems the right place for them ??? I guess you just have to navigate the forum for a bit, and as you discover stuff it seems natural. I'll adnit though, when I first joined, they were invisable to me too, till I started looking around the site
I got torqued one time before I modifyed my physical method if steering, my right thumb, not a bad one but enough to educate me with a Dioloma of hard knocks.
Its molecular size makes it burn twice the amount, as an alchahol molecule is half the size of a gas molecule, also its hard on rubber parts in carbs and fuel systems. Also theres zero lubrication properties with it, but yea it'll burn, the exhaust fumes also make your eyes water or (burn). But...
I'v used them in my farm equiptment and I believe they are something less than a grade five bolt, but the ease of getting them makes them attractive. I think if you can pull in a straight dirrection you will be ok, they shouldl shear after an aluminum, but before a grade five.
Winches are so...

I think I know what your talking about, are the holes on your custom wheels the same size as duce lugnut holes ? got a picture of the wheel? What I think they were set up for was the lugnuts like Domestic 1 ton and 2 ton trucks
Shear pins are listed at www.saturnsurplus.com in the M35 section, page 7, under 'winch' they list for $3.50 each. unless this is one you tried who were out.
I can appreciate that DAVE, and you make a valid point to consider....Everyone will observe that I speciffically STRESS that any time you work with tires the risk is present....... Again KNOW what you are about to do, prepare, and as with many other things, it is best to have someone around the...
It's really a nice outfit and the possabilities of where you could travel are limmited only by clearance and traction. With the current economy in dis-aray, it certainly would secure ones ability to weather about any catastrophy that might arise, pluss the multi-fuel aspect. I'd imagine that...
It has been brought up often times, the difficulty of inflating 20" tires on Custom Wheels used as of late for the 'BEEFED' offroad bogger look ie. those 14.00's and 16.00's and what have you. First, be absolutely SURE that you understand the method you will use, no guesswork please. We have...
By all means GET it, and mix oil or use it as a mixer. Something off the wall: I used to ride two stroke dirt bikes and used to burn 'Bean Oil' and it had a very pleasant smell to it ( those who have smelled it know what I mean ) Anyway, a quart in the tank would sure have people on the street...
