Yes, I took it apart before and looked at it. It did not appear to be damaged in anyway. I will have to take it apart and check the dimensions of my drum lock pin to the dimensions that G posted earlier. I think I even tried putting a spacer behind it to increase the spring pressure, but it did...

If that hole is wallowed out a little, will that make the lock less effective? On my truck the winch lock does not seem to work that well. If i pull on the cable by hand pretty good, it will skip right over the drum lock (when locked). I adjusted the lock as good as i think i could per the TM...

Yup, that is exactly how my cab originally was. I put an A2 dash on the A3 cab (less holes for the tranny temp gauge and diagnostic plug). The only thing to be careful of is if you fold the windshield down, make sure you pull a little wire up through the dash before laying the windshield down. I...

Here is the picture of the ground wire. Obviously it would be nicer if it went to the actual cab, but i think this works fairly good. i have not had a problem with it so far. Then again, i just got it done last night around 10:00.

Yes, that would be easier then. When i first took my steering box out, i was not sure that i could do that, so i fought with it. live and learn. i did have to change the outer tube on my deuce when i crashed it. the important part there when putting a different tube on it is making sure the...

I thought I would make a new thread covering my electric wiper installation in my deuce. This only covers the wiring portion of the installation. When I bought the A3 cab for my deuce, I noticed they just drilled a hole in the middle of the dash and ran the wires that way. Well I think that...

If all else fails, maybe removing the dash would help too because it might give more wiggle room for the long steering box tube. i know its a lot of work, but its food for thought. WHen i took mine out, it was a pain. i had to jack my engine up and use a porta power to push the engine around...

thats right up spicergear's alley.... he seems to be the unimog guru (spelling?). he loves his mogs and his winches! :beer:

the front input shaft on the winch will be hard to turn... somewhat. The reason is there is a band brake attached to that shaft in the front of the winch. it is there so the winch does not unwind if there is tension on the winch cable. Look in the TM for the winch and it will show how to...

I built my own pair of rubber strips using a piece of 1/4" mud flap. The mud flap (bought from NAPA for big trucks) is built like a tire and has reinforcing material just like the tires and I thought it would hold up a lot better than the originals. I don’t believe the originals had any...

I should get there early friday morning. I believe 5tonpuller and i are convoying down... but him and i need to set up the time we are headding out. rough estimate is friday morning hopefully before people head out wheeling for the day so we can join in.

I did the same exact thing. Right Stuff is made by Permatex (spelling?). It is weird because there would still be a little oil seeping past those two metal surfaces and get into the bearing. Sure wish they just lubed the axles with gear oil instead. Would have made our lives a lot easier. But...

If its leaking just behind the water pump pulley and not the housing, you are looking at buying a new water pump. Make sure the engine is good and clean so you can see a drip if one starts. I suggest tightening your hose clamps first to make sure they are tight. Start off with the simple...

i tried to vote again, but i cant. i am also good for the october 11-14th.

Thanks a lot guys for all the good information you are posting here. Someday I would like to set up my house so I can run my MEP-002A to power the house during a power outage. I have a good friend who is a licensed electrician and will have him hook up what I need to power the house. I like...

I believe the original half sweep deuce gauge reads 120psi on the top of the scale. The full sweep 900 series air pressure gauge reads 150psi. what scale is the trans temp gauge? i believe that went up to 320 degrees? did they use the same sending unit as the water temperature sending unit?

Do you mean running air tools off the trucks air supply with the engine running?

my old cab stayed warm and dry for the most part, so i am trying to get this one the same :lol: I already brought this soft top brand new and for it to fit this bad, i dont like it. if i only used the truck as an offroad work machine, its one thing. To have it as a daily driver is another...

Does anybody have pictures of this CB box? What are the pros and cons if this box is by-passed or not functional?

How do the other soft tops adress the areas at the top corner of the windshield where mine shows light through it? Does anybody have pictures of their soft tops that fit good or fit poorly?
