As the title states, I changed to a C turbo, also at the same time ran the truck out of fuel, DUHHHH. Anyone notice a change in smoke output when going to a C ? Performance change? Fuel economy? I seem to be using more fuel all the sudden, and smoking alot more. Power seems the same. I am...

Installed C turbo, and a springer seat set, ran it out of fuel.(how stupid, guess the fuel gauge needs to be on the list)

Please post pics of your door fix!

Here is a frontal shot. If you are using a deuce bed, I think they will tuck under just fine. My rear hubs are not flipped yet, soon. The tires should track together when flipped, but I think they will still poke out from under a 105 bed a little, but maybe not?

Thanks for the compliment Carlo, my father in law taught me this valuable life skill. I thank him for it at every opportunity. I would like to think the 1.5" overlap of the wheel sections is carrying the load, and the weld is just having to deal with separation forces.

Mine is progressing a little, got the homemade wheels & 16.00 R 20's mounted, and the A3 lights on the fenders.

I thought about making them to sell, but it is so time consuming, they would probably cost $200 each.

Thanks Richard, could not have done it without your help!!

Thanks cold warrior, I got some 450 watt bulbs from popacom to put in the factory headlight buckets to use as driving/search lights.

Could you point me in the right direction to find the threads, my search yielded about 5 million hits with no help. Thanks.

She is getting closer to the elusive end. Still need to add the 4" lift,install the springer seat set,install C turbo, 450 watt headlights, fuel/ammo can mounts,missile launcher,etc....... .

Finally got my A3 lights mounted.

Here is a pic of them mounted on the truck

I got my homemade wheels & 16.00 XL's mounted, also installed the A3 lights on the fenders

I am getting my deuce project finished. Having not driven it in a while, I am having an issue with the lighting....I think. I can't seem to make the front running lights and the headlights work at the same time with any combination of the switch levers. Is this suppose to be? Or , does my switch...

If most of them have been scrapped, and otherwise not available, not terribly sorry not to have looked for them.

I didn't know that, are they readily available? Are they sought after?, hence more expensive? i.e. ...the stupid prices for A3 wheels.

Sorry about the name mixup, guess my mind is in overload right now anticipating the wheel/tire combo! Now that the project is coming to a close, looking back, it is worth it. You will get discouraged along the way, but keep going,thinking about almost free wheels. Also, the pride of making...

I got the wheels today. Unfortunately no tube flaps found locally. I did find a place in Georgia that had new 12" wide flaps for a 20" rim, and also 16.00 x 20 tubes, flaps $30.00, tubes $50.00....... will be here tuesday. I found a local shop to mount them for $15.00 each , when the flaps &...

I promise to post pics as soon as I have them. I pick up the wheels in the morning. Located the final tube. Still hunting 10.00 x 20 flaps, but will not rest tomorrow until I have them.
