    Deuce will not maintain Idle

    " IF " theres gunk in the tank like mine had do your self a favor . Pull the pump out of tank and the cap and strainer out . You can reach down in there and remove a lot of gunk rather then filters every week and constant irratation . Mine plugged the filters recently to the point it would...

    Yes it will have some effect but not that much . I think the cons out weigh the pros for this idea how ever .

    Wobbly input shaft

    Some one with more MV knowledge can correct me but on civilian truck trans iv worked on they all seem to have more movement in the input shaft then one would think . 1/16 dont sound like a lot to me . The bearing or bushing in the flywheel holds the input steady .

    Just Put On the Front Lockouts!

    wildchild unless you are running lockers it really wouldnt help , tire scrub is the problem with turning and lockouts on the rear wouldnt change that . With open diffs they can rotate freely and not bind in a turn . If your locked in the rear then yes i see your point .

    Just Put On the Front Lockouts!

    Just Put On the Front Lockouts!

    That disconnects the transfer but your wheel tire is still turning the axel shafts . Say if you were to break a shaft and had a lock out you could unlock the wheel and roll on out with out binding things up or doing more damage .

    This is an odd thing , been in towing all my adult life and we use plenty of snatch blocks . A 10,000 lb winch needs a 10,000 snatch block rating . People get it in there head they need to double that to 20,000 , not so . Civilian world stop by any tow shop and ask if you could get one of...
