    Tie down your batteries.

    I have to take the son's side here. Was he told not to go offroading? Did he know the batteries were not secured? And, he was using it for it's intended purpose.

    Way to make truck not start so people cant drive off in deuce

    There are a number of ways. Search for Deuce Security in the search box. One of the easiaest ways is to put a locking switch inline with the battery cable. Most deuces have a chain that's welded to the driver's seat to wrap around the steering wheel. I also installed locking door handles on the cab.

    A picture will help so we can see exactly what and how it is. It sounds very interesting.

    Gensets at auction with oil filter and radiator hoses pulled? WTF?

    Maybe they have to drain the fluids?

    Deuce load?

    Rated load is 5,000 off-road and 10,000 on paved roads. Ditto that overloading could leave to big legal trouble if something went wrong.

    Differential fluid level -- Use a flashlight...not your finger.

    One knuckle or all the way full doesn't make much of a difference in my experience. The transmission on my deuce overflows just before you reach the proper amount of lube anyway.

    Caster adjustments to suit 11.00X20 changeover

    The Firestone 11.00x20's don't seem to cause trouble. It's the G177's that need caster adjustment. Look up a thread my Aswayze. He showed how he made his faster adjustment.

    Differential fluid level -- Use a flashlight...not your finger.

    A piece of wire with a right angle works too. Just make sure to put a big loop in the other end so you can't accidently drop it in the hole.

    ground plain or no ground plain cb antenna for m1009

    You'll want to have the antenna attached to metal for sure. It makes the body of the vehicle part of the antenna.
