    11.00s on deuce rims

    Jason hit the nail on the head. the hubs are drilled and tapped on both sides so you can change the offset. Then the 11.00's will clear the rear leaf springs. Yea it takes all day to do.

    Headlight relay

    The other day i installed a relay on a civi truck to keep the low beams on when the highbeams are turned on. I was thinking of doing this for more light on my duece. I was going to use the high beam indicator light wire to charge the relay. Do you think the headlight bulbs can handle the heat, Amps?

    Which motor to swap in...

    The toruqe #'s depend on the Hp rating. You can crank up the fuel rate on these engines for more power. If i rember right the 229 hp setting gives you 475 Ftlbs at 1900rpm's. But i'm not 100% sure it's been 5 years since we had a 6-71.

    Which motor to swap in...

    As far as displacement goes 6-71 stands for 6 cylinder, 71 cubic inch displacement. So a 6-71 is 426 cubic inches. The 2 stroke DD is going to rap out much faster than the cummalong. (more deiseribale when busting mud holes) Now only being a 426 CID doesen't count because it's a 2 stroke...

    Rear End "CLUNK"

    If it's only doing it when you turn, I'd check the bogie bearings. There is a shaft that the rear suspension rotates on. If you look between the axles on eather side you will see a cap with 6 bolts holding it on. Behind this cap is some taper bearings. Later on they changed to brass bushings...

    LDS vs LDT

    If you've done some fuel cranking to at least 1100 deg, your pushing 200 hp now. I'd get the other truck and hold on the the engine in case you ever tank the ldt. If you look at the tag on the front pass side of you engine you'll see a rebuild tag. If it's been rebuilt espacilly if it's been...
