    Shaking Down an Old Deuce and New Deuce Owner

    These last 2 replies clarified & helped a lot. They're also consistent with the new deuce owner threads I've been reading on things to check. Thanks.

    Front axle boot

    In following the Goop advice, I actually found several kinds at Lowes, Home Depot, and KMart. West Marine was out until mid August at the earliest. Types included 'household', 'plumbing', and the like. Each has a list of materials it's made to stick to, '...and more...' I decided to stick...

    Shaking Down an Old Deuce and New Deuce Owner

    All the parts arrived today, so the repair is about to get underway. A quick sanity check: Heavysteven suggested just the zipper boot change, while I've been aimed at doing the seals at the same time because of a few drops of lube coming from the exposed cotter pin. Is the consensus that I'm...

    Shaking Down an Old Deuce and New Deuce Owner

    ColdWarrior, you're clearly an area native as is Joanne from Elizabeth. I'm a transplant from western PA by way of Queens. I'm through Rochelle Park every couple of days. If you're up to visit, get in touch and we'll catch a bite at The Crow's Nest on Rt 17. Perhaps you know it. I'm sure...

    Shaking Down an Old Deuce and New Deuce Owner

    I went thru the '...StepXStep...' Superb, and I've noticed a couple other pieces similar to it. The straightforward, heavy and dirty part I figured out real quick. I'd give it a shot given enough time, but if I tried to tear it down where it is in the picture, I'd definitely get an official...

    Shaking Down an Old Deuce and New Deuce Owner

    A bit long but by way of introduction and thanks: On Memorial Day, I didn't know anything about this hobby, but answered an ad selling an M105 while looking for a utility trailer. Found SS via Google looking for how to make it work. Later learned from the site that it WAS too much for my E-350...

    M101A2 Fixing Bent Lunette Mounting

    Closing this out: With some parts from MichiganDon (thanks) and some elbow grease, I got everything working, if still a few degrees off. Doesn't seem to affect straight towing or the brakes, so I'm declaring a win and moving on while leaving open the chance I might need to revisit this...

    M101A2 Fixing Bent Lunette Mounting

    Thanks very much. The word "Toledo" was the key in getting the proper responses from Google and tjhose gave me 'Balcrank'. Below are links for the parts in question from one site, though there are other sources. I'm putting them in here in case somebody can use. Until I try them, I'm just...

    M101A2 Fixing Bent Lunette Mounting

    The lunette on my trailer is bent to the passenger side. After taking it apart, I discovered that not only the front vertical bar to the brake actuator is bent, but also the top transverse pin (see highlights on attached TM drawing.) I have doubts whether any of the bent parts can be...
