    Suggestions for a Keyed ignition switch for my new Deuce

    Since you only need a start position I would use Napa (Echlin) PN KS123... Keyed 3 position, (momentary on - off - momentary on) good for 20 amps so the solenoid amperage will not be a problem... 13/16 mounting diameter, 1" long stem so its fairly small and is o ring sealed....

    Air vac rebuild????

    LOL @ air soluble... I usually refer to em as "Jesus springs"... The amount of knowledge this place tosses around is rather amazing at times!!! The rebuilding part I am sure I will have no problem with, you never know what your getting into until your in to it and I hate finding out a "kit"...

    Air vac rebuild????

    Does anyone have experience rebuilding an airvac (brake booster, air over hyd) unit? I have a fluid leak starting and I see Saturn has kits available for them for 36$ (pic). But I am not sure if that kit does both side of the unit and or if anything else is needed?

    Sound/Heat insulation?

    This is an old post but I will toss in my 2 cents and give a little input from auto interior work... Sound proofing or more correctly "shutting the damn pig up" is a lot less complicated than it sounds. Standard carpeting pile is what 99% of auto shops use its cheap and is sold at hardware...

    Deuce Axle Conversion and Other (semi) Intelligent Questions

    I am new to the forum but a vet to turning wrenches and military toys... I have talked myself into buying a Deuce which I proably need like a hole in the head but I figure you only live once right? I like the looks of the "bobbed" or single axle conversion and have spent a good bit of time...

    A word of caution... I have bought a lot of items from GL and have managed to put together a fairly nice metal working shop from it.. MOST of my purchase have been great only needing TLC, tinkering and paint... However a few of them have been a total waste of time and rather huge waste of...
