    Homegrown Tow Bar

    If you really are looking into producing a kit based off of this, offer it un-"assembled" as well. I think keeping it non-adjustable and in pieces could make it pretty affordable. It'd also be able to be shipped out via UPS (or other service) as the weight could be divided. It'd be especially...

    Transmission swap, what to have on hand ahead of time?

    Good reading as I need to replace a rear main seal. I'm going to replace the clutch and associated pieces while I'm in there. Doesn't sound as hard as I thought it'd be. I guess the divorced TC makes it easier to do than the regular civilian 4x4's.

    Pre / Post Lubrication System...Done.

    Welding isn't an option for everyone though, so a bolted in flange is still a good idea IMO. Either way has it's advantages and disadvantages.

    What did it run you to get all the parts?

    how do you safegaurd you dueces health

    I was wondering what the difference was between the 209 and 361 series of TM's, I have both but haven't looked through the 361 manual yet.

    Pre / Post Lubrication System...Done.

    I'm interested! Could you give a better break down on the parts? I'm not a wiring whiz, but I have a pretty good grasp. I just don't fully understand how you used all the components.

    A few M35A2 parts

    RE: Re: A few M35A2 parts How many glad hands do you have? You wouldn't happen to have a fuel level sender as well would you?

    Stripping old paint

    Re: RE: Stripping old paint What's a needle scaler? I live in an urban area, so sand blasting isn't realistic. I need something more controllable. I completely missed the "Paint and Bodywork" section. All I seen was the sandblasting section and that's not an option for me. I'll post over...

    Stripping old paint

    In the next couples of weeks, I'll be starting the paint stripping on my deuce. I can't use a sandblaster due to location. Has anyone else used other methods that's proved to be faster than sanding? Something like a chemical stripper or anything like that? I have an air compressor and DA...

    rear main seal leak

    I'm currently chasing a possible leaking rear main seal. I'm exploring ALL other options first though because it doesn't leak oil all the time, only after it's driven for a while.

    Stretch's used oil centrifuge

    What kind of pump are you running on that? I'd like more details on it. Trying to make my own setup.

    Experimental Deuce?

    RE: Re: 6bt I have no question that the motor could do it, but how would any of the Cummins transmissions hold up to a truck as heavy as ours?

    Rear m35 axle mod

    What interests me here is it's not really a "bobbed" Deuce, it's more of an axle delete. I think it'd look alright lifted and on 53" tires. I use the bed of mine alot and I've only had a a short time. Maybe I'll get another one soon and bob that one.

    6x6 tire help

    If you don't plan on going over 40mph, you'll be just fine hauling that much. As far as brakes, I think you'd be better off with the stock setup and just making sure it's working as it should. If it's mostly an on-road truck, some commerical tires would be best.

    6x6 performance upgrade question

    That ONLY worked on spooled/welded rear ends. As stated above, pinion brakes are exclusively for rock crawlers or parking brakes, NOT for everyday driving.

    FREE TO A GOOD HOME: M35A2 bed and tailgate

    If you were closer I'd take it! My bed is rotted out and tailgate beat up pretty bad. Anyone going from through MD into KY territory?

    WMO ?

    I'd be interested to know that as well. I have some oil and received oil, but I know some of his additives in it. I haven't turned up anything here w/ searches.

    Crazy idea for filtering used oil.

    I'm not interested in the washing machine idea, I think it's too impractical to work... if it's even possible. I was strictly interested in sock filter rig shown earlier.

    Crazy idea for filtering used oil.

    I know this is reviving an old thread, but I want to know more about that rig you posted pictures of Houdel. What is everything inside that box? I don't need an expensive setup and I'm fairly fabrication handy. I'll also only be using low-volume amounts of WEG/WVO/WATF.
