    Wet stacking after startup

    what about using lucas oil stabilizer? mix it 20% of the crankcase volume (so 6 quarts.) ive always used it in my trucks, and i just put it in the deuce last weekend. seems to shut it up quite a bit. used that mixed 80-20 with 15w-40 oil. if anything you would think it would keep a better...

    deuce recovery, i am an idiot !

    well at least it was your buddy that got you out, and not a random guy driving home from soccer practice. however if your land rover buddy is as cocky as some of my jeep friends i would have just held the brakes on while he tried to pull me out. let em break a drive shaft. would have been...

    Spindle nut reatainer ring??

    i have no idea about napa, but you may try a local truck supply shop. i have one here in town, and they have all kinds of oddball stuff that the deuce needs. if you can get one from eric that may just be your best bet. next day air it if you dont want to wait.

    Water Everywhere

    Hey everyone. Ive always noticed that I have a few spots on my truck that look like they are always wet. The one most noticeable is around the passenger side hood hinge. Well i drove it the other day, and when i stopped i noticed some water on the ground. Opened the hood, and the passenger...

    HEMTT adapter plates & cost

    true. i just had machine work done yesterday. not cheap. if he "theoretically" only puts a 10 dollar mark up on it he is cutting everybody a deal. Especially if he is over 100 bucks in labor and material. anybody who runs a business knows you cant keep your head above water with 10-12% or...

    Lockout hubs

    INMO i would think that a major benefit of having locking hubs would be in case you ever had a catastrophic failure of the front axle. If you were trail riding one day, and broke a shaft, rounded off a ring gear, or blew an oil seal you could simply unlock the front end, and drive it home with...

    Master cyl, dual vs. single

    has anybody ever tried to deploy the parking brake as a last ditch effort during a brake failure? i was driving home one night on a road by myself, and easily pulled it up just to see what what happen. the roads were a little wet, but it locked up the rears with little effort. now i know the...

    Engine Swap

    well put. while I myself think the concept of a big cammed out v8 would be cool in a deuce. you also have to keep in mind that it takes on average double the HP's from a gas motor to equal the power of a diesel. so you would need around 300 hp just to break even. so what do you want? 500-600...

    I want to buy an M35a and have questions.

    i bought mine from a fellow SS member. may have paid 100-200 bucks more for it than i could have picked it up on GL, but I knew it ran, and drove great. to me that was well worth the piece of mind knowing the condition of the truck. now i will look at GL, but only because i have a truck to go...

    Governor (?) Holding Engine Back

    NAPA has them. The primary is a NAPA gold 3511, and the two secondaries are NAPA gold 3512. Mine did almost the same, except it would just slow to an idle while running. pulled over on the side of the road, and changed the primary, and she ran like a top the remaining 200 miles home. i...
