    Working on the Deuce

    Ok, moving ahead Really great news the rear hub I pulled has new pads, hardware, seals, and fresh grease. I am going to reassemble and reuse seals. Take a look the new star seals are NOT as good as the militaries.

    The Epic Separation

    I like this thread already, 2,200 miles in a deuce. I have a feeling this is going to be very entertaining.

    Wreckerman screwed the pooch

    Looks like you need a hood, radiator, and grill for sure. I would ask for help when doing the repair. I could barely pull out my own radiator. On the bright side it's an opportunity for you to some PCMS. Adjusting the parking brake was one of the first repairs I did. It's so tight now you have...

    Bobbed DUKW

    Why no cut up a party boat and attach the floats to the sides of a bobber. Then attach a propelear to the rear axle output.

    While the radiator is off...

    Yeah, you don't have to pull the winch. Don't forget to replace the belts, hoses, and thermostat.2cents
