    Anybody interested in steps for a deuce?

    It's basically the same size and shape as the original side step of a deuce, just much heavier material so it doesn't need the reinforcing channel that causes it to rust through. I can post a pic if you want, I'll have to find the file.

    Who really made your Deuce???

    Well my data plate says Kaiser Jeep, that's good enough for me. So to me that means I own two Jeeps, one is a 2010, and one is a 1972. Both made in the USA!

    Helmets When Driving

    You had to be blind to buy an AMC. Ugliest cars ever built. As for the ATM's and Drive thru's, that's just PC gone amuck. When they remodeled the local high school, at the top of a ladder, next to the door to the theater cat walk to the stage lights, there was a braille sign...aua

    Helmets When Driving

    As a firefighter, I assume most people don't hear me, thus all the reflective stripes and flashy lights. I assume there aren't any blind people driving, but I might be wrong on that...

    But it's okay if you're playing music so loud that the spot welds on your fenders are cracking....:doh:

    carbon monoxide!

    I remember years ago, while in the maintenance sweep for a convoy, we trailed an OLD M-816 gasser up to Grayling Mi. from Ohio. That truck never ran quite right, and I remember smelling it's exhaust all day during the convoy. My co-driver and I were a bit loopy by the time we got to Camp...

    Helmets When Driving

    On that note, ACU's that made it impossible to roll up the sleeves are another moronic design... I do have to say that ACH saved me from having about 40 stitches in my head once. We were coming into a base in Iraq, and the last vehicle through had to manually close the gate, requiring someone...

    Helmets When Driving

    I think a lighter helmet used in a truck or MV wouldn't be too bad, you wouldn't have the weight or speed (like NASCAR) to cause the whiplash type injuries. The military has a plethora of stupid and pointless "safety" rules, that just don't work in reality. In Iraq, one of the bases I was on...

    Help ID'ing light/gen set

    That doesn't look familiar to me, but I will say that military gen sets were always underated in their output to me. The 5KW diesels with the Onan engines were available as a 10KW gen set in the civilian world.

    Overturned HMMWV in NJ, stay safe folks

    I'm pretty CERTAIN that Paramedics DID NOT amputate the leg of that soldier, that is NOT in their scope of practice. I don't see any armor, I can't imagine that it all just came off that easily either.

    Deuce Jack Safety Questions

    I don't know of any bottle or hydraulic type jack other than what you'd lift a railroad car that won't fit in the tool box on a deuce. Even a 50 ton jack should fit.

    WMO users in Ohio?

    But you still need the proper type bowl, machined and balanced, to separate out the waste.
