6.2 Deuce Powered by Low Fart Cottage Cheese. A multi fuel? Nice work Gunfreak, one bolt at a time. I understand you're still looking for a compressor rebuild package, what else is on your needs list? Thanks for the pics!

It's Canada, and Section8 does mean Section8. More references on this page Section8. MilitaryTrucks.ca Website - M135

Civ bumper It's not a bumper, it's a grannie step. She's 82 and wants to ride in the back. The truck was registered as a commercial unit first in 85' which, i'm guessing required the bumper, front mudflaps (page 1) turn signals etc. We put plugs on the bumper light wiring so with the removal...

Tire size, electrical gremlins, plate light 11.00 - 20's my Butt, tires are Bridgestone 10.00 -20's and as many know and I didn't are 42" tall. License plate light, 24v mounted and ready to shine, LED lights all mounted and wired in. We've been trying to get all the lights, including black...

Weed managment needed Did you want to borrow a lawn mower?

Winch on a Deuce Good, now there's someone closer who can get Stan out of the Pacific, if he tries the underwater thing. Get pics of the purchase adventure and bringing it home. It's cheaper for me to have the same excitement purchasing a deuce when someone else is doing it. Congratulations...

Diffuser Okay now I know what you saw. This diffuser was mounted on the firewall of an M135 in the bush. I pulled it off and 'back paid' a good guy that gave me some lights. It looks like the original gear but now that I see all the other set-ups I'm still wondering how many of these trucks...

Heater Right again OldFart. This personnel heater was plumbed through a circulating heater off the back, left side of the block then tied into what i 'think' is the original plumbing. It looks real clean through the firewall and the mounting inside the firewall looks professional. I hope the...

Tire size, Gunfreak, They are 11.00 -20's but honestly couldn't tell you the diameter. I'm going to add that to the list tomorrow. Tunnel vision. I can tell you if your tree is a Fraxinus Pennsylvannica or an Ulmus Americana but don't know my Ficus elastica, yet. and Stan . . . . . I'm...

Turn signal flasher, winch Removed the PTO shaft to the winch and dropped it at Pat's Driveline a few weeks ago. Got the call today and after dropping $250 now own an 'updated' propeller for the winch including mid-shaft bearing. I also removed the original winch hook assembly off the original...

Service release It's missing a mud flap.

Tapered pins? I'm no mechanic but had to do some Torsion bar removal being assisted by one. Obviously, take all the weight off the pins. Lube is good. If it's a tapered pin mechanic Rollie says if you can 'love beat' the bracket that the tapered pin goes into, apparently physics tells them to...

Heaters Hendersond, was that heater in your truck when you got it? It's so similar to one I saw laying in the bush. What do you know about it? It's obviously not the one in the TM's so 'thinking out loud' is it possible some of the trucks got farmed out and IH or somebody else put heaters in...

Torsion bars removal, rear cab mount Had Rollie the Goalie mechanic show me up on torsion bar removal. The cross support was bent and front lower torsion bars were loose at the rear mount so they had to come off. The rear bolts came out fairly easy as access for beating was good. The bolts are...

Lids and heaters I'll get better pics of the plumbing on the heater and how it's set up on my truck . . . . . . It's not original but works great. There's also a few left in the bush, cool old shots. Spare lids in the field.

lights and turn signals After looking...........I found schematics for everything one needs to get lights working. The first photo is a description of what the existing switch does. The challenge isn't just trying to get the original lights to work but also trying to decipher the wiring...

Transmissions What I can tell you about the transmission is . . . . . . . . . This was in the article that was linked above. """""for over 30 years we have used hy-tran which is the International Harvester hydraulic drive transmission oil""""""" and I just found out today!!!!!!!!!!! I guess...

drive train mods Just guessing if you start a thread in the "forum" under "early deuce" identifying that you have a 211 with a drive train mod ..........and take some cool detail pics of how they solved all the challenges of a build like that........ You'll make a pile 'o' people real happy...

Tires You are so right. A Deep lug that .......had they protected these tires....would be nice for snow and swamping. Unfortunately someone forgot the spf30 and they are gently weather (checked) cracked and will never see the highway. I'd like to keep them for weekends when she won't be...

Lights Rear(s) pinion seals, bearings and 'propellers' back in place we got at the electrical. The TM's were IN TM idating in the beginning but I'm finding as much detail as one would building a Revell Model...........comprehension is next. We pulled 8 old sealed marker lights into the shop...
