Any chance of a writeup on that? General advice? I'd really like to do that. Good job on the step by step Frodobaggins!!

I'm guessing the rarity. I haven't seen a whole lot of those since my introduction to mvs. Not that it has been a long time or anything. just sayin.

I picked mine up for $1945 before the 10% premium. Went to Montgomery AL, picked it up, and drove it 400 miles back home with no work other than filling it up with diesel. Since then, I've put a heater motor, light switch, and turn signal switch in it. Had 1811 miles on a 1986 rebuild. It's over...

I have a pic of a Deuce parked beside a 10 ton, I pulled it off of here, forget where exactly.

Dang! I missed all the fun!

I am in agreement with gimpy

I am in need of the pipe that connects the turbo to the flex pipe on a deuce, does anyone have one, or know where to get one used? I looked on Saturn Surplus' site, and they have them, but for what it costs, I can deal with some fumes and an exhaust leak..

Sounds to me like the reason he got you was the 30,000# weight. Bump that back down to 26,000 pounds, and you shouldn't have any more problems. By tagging it for that much, you put yourself into commercial territory, and also CDL territory.

Thanks for the compliments Brian, and for posting up those pics. It was a good time, hope to see you again soon.

I'll try to be there with my deuce.

I don't know if it would work, but on car tires I've had luck with wrapping a come-along around the tread and tightening it up to balloon the bead out some. Then take it off when you get the bead to seat.

Haha, awesome!

If you weren't in New Bern...

As far as I know, the Military considered them to be non-directional. I personally think they should be mounted like a standard directional tire, with the "V" facing forward. I'll try to find a pic. EDIT: like this: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?t=28047&highlight=michelin

I don't hear any bad news. lol Perfect time to put a manual trans in it, and they've already gotten rid of the ctis for you.

Hey Metrobus, did you ever get a tag for yours? If so what did you wind up getting?

I think 2500 is a fair price. I've seen Civvy 1/2 ton trucks with small blocks, and no lift go for that.

RE: Aluminum Ladder Man, I'd like to have the tires off that first truck... Good luck with the Sale!!

RE: NC Tag for Deuce I haven't dealt with the DMV personally, but I just received my SF-97 last friday and am going soon to tag mine. I am interested in what everyone has to say about this, as almost $400 is a little more than I had budgeted for a tag. Metrobus, I see you're from Asheville, we...

In my opinion, that's when it officially becomes "too deep"
