    Battery Cable size for Kill Switch

    Welding Cable! Hadn't thought of that! There is a welding shop about 45 min west of me, I'll have to check there next time I'm out that way. Thanks for the idea guys!

    Battery Cable size for Kill Switch

    Yep, just wanted to make sure. Didn't want to throw away money on a larger cable if it wasn't actually needed. Anyone know a good source for 2/0 Battery Cable? Even Saturn Surplus only seems to carry up to 0-gauge. The only place that I seem to be able to find it is on flea-bay. I know no...

    Battery Cable size for Kill Switch

    :lol::funny: Well, the truck did come with walmart never-start batteries.... if they die they still have warranty :whistle: Yes, using the negative seems to be safest... Plus its the side you're supposed to disconnect first when removing a battery. Thanks for the reminder!

    Battery Cable size for Kill Switch

    See that's what I was thinking. I wonder why some people used smaller cable... price I would guess. But it's not worth it if its going to cause problems later. Thanks!

    Battery Cable size for Kill Switch

    I've been reading about adding a battery kill switch for some time now, as I need to add one to our deuce. I have already purchased two heavy duty 24v battery kill switches. However, my questions/thought line on this is: The A2 deuce has 2/0 Battery Cable, Correct? I want to run new battery...

    Can a C Type Turbo be Switched out with a D??

    I've been reading up some about the Turbos, and I just need to confirm a few things. First, our deuce has a C-Type "whistler" turbo. Question: Can I replace this C-Type with a D-Type Turbo? I know I've read some threads, where members seem to state that they changed from one type to the...

    Our First MV's Recovered - Now on to Maintenance & Updates

    Trying to hold it out with a ladder and such, it was about 5 feet to long. So yeah I'd say it was the M36 most likely. Thanks!

    Where to get a Deuce Turbo Rebuilt??

    I've been doing some searching on front axle boots. I am sure that the solid boots last longer than the zipper boots, but I've also read of some only lasting a year? Why is this? Has anyone found a better axle boot that will last? I have seen axle boots for sale, like on Eriks, that also state...

    Where to get a Deuce Turbo Rebuilt??

    I found Ken in the member list and sent him a PM yesterday. Hopefully I'll hear back from him today or tomorrow and can ship it out on monday. We'll be waiting on the turbo to get back before we finish the exhaust. I am replacing the J-Pipe and we're adding a muffler, as the deuce is just to...

    Where to get a Deuce Turbo Rebuilt??

    Hi Wsucougarx! Yes I found and completely read through your Turbo Rebuild thread a few days ago. Excellent Job on the "How To" by the way. I thought about rebuilding it myself, but I don't know. I'd rather just have some do it who has some experience with them, if the price is right. If it...

    Where to get a Deuce Turbo Rebuilt??

    Is the Flame nozzle the piece with the black and red lines, which the piece connects into the intake just above the turbo?

    Where to get a Deuce Turbo Rebuilt??

    Hi Everyone, I posted a photo of my C-Type (Whistler) Turbo, in my Deuce Recovery, and now "project" thread located here, with Original Photo of the Turbo also attached below. I'm getting this truck ready for long trips on the highway. So I'm trying to make any and all repairs and a few updates...

    Line-X or Rhino Bedliner On Underside of A3 Hood?

    Have you, or anyone else here, used the Lizard Skin Sound Deadening undercoat??? How good does it work under the hood and such, to deaden sound and vibrations??? Is there a cheap gun you can use to apply? I really don't want to pay $65 for a gun that I will just use once or twice. Anyone...

    Our First MV's Recovered - Now on to Maintenance & Updates

    Does anyone know of a reputable company that will rebuild the C-Type Turbo's? I sent in for a quote to J & H Diesel, who I read about here on SS, but haven't heard anything back from them. Thanks

    Our First MV's Recovered - Now on to Maintenance & Updates

    Thanks for shedding some light on the photo of the turbo. I was thinking maybe that it could be "that problem" that I had read about... but hoping it was not. I'll have to look into it and see how hard its going to be to replace the seals I guess. Yeah I do know about the 5 min rule. Been...

    Our First MV's Recovered - Now on to Maintenance & Updates

    lol :-D That is an interesting control isn't it :-D My brother, who was driving the deuce on the recovery trip, figured it out one morning before we left the hotel. Even though we never needed them the whole trip, as we never once ran into a single drop of rain or snow the entire 2100 mile...
