Ah, another happy Winslow client! That's the truck with the electric wipers and springer seats. I was really eying that one, but he kept steering me toward the one I eventually brought home. With a fresh paint job it should make a nice unit as well. 8-)

Sure wish there was a surplus of G177s around here! Did you have to change the front axle caster on your truck like many others here have done after going to these tires?

I'm on a pretty dusty road myself. Don't suppose there's a Blue Beacon (or equivalent) in the neighborhood?

Is their a hydraulic assist steering available for these trucks? IOW, not a kit like Toms, nor full hydraulic, but a hydraulic version of the Air-O-Matic, if you will?

Welcome to the insanity!!!

Welded up spider gears= "hillbilly positraction". A VERY popular mod in the demo derby circle. The previous posters in this thread are spot on. What other kinds of redneck engineering has this poor truck had to endure? I shudder at the thought and certainly wouldn't wanna undertake correcting...

Welcome to the group from Wake Forest! I'm a new deuce owner myself, but have had an on again/off again desire to own one since I was in Kindergarten. :twisted: May I suggest giving John Winslow a call? 252-883-2509 I bought my winch truck from him and thus far couldn't be happier with it. He...

Go to http://www.streetrodstuff.com/ and they can build you an aluminum radiator to almost any dimension and specification that you want or need. Havig said that, I can certainly appreciate the innovation that Truckoholic put into retrofitting an "off the shelf" unit into his truck. Well done...

Hey, methinks I've got that day off! Really itching to get some wheel time in my new baby.

Would have loved to have made it, but I'm currently "workin' for the weekend". :( Maybe (hopefully!) next time!

Mike, the next time you go up there, can you investigate the s788s that they have advertised on their website? I'd like to know if they still have any and whether or not they look like a piece of Swiss cheese like the ones coming up for sale on this one auction site... Thanks, Don

I already have a trailer reserved! (The "Coyotes" are on the Horse Pasture side, are they not?) Don

Already looking forward to it! :beer:

The thing that I do not like about the CBC is that it does not appear to be insulated like the S-series shelters are. I still like my 788 on a 103 idea. Anyone see any reason why that would NOT work out OK?

Not familiar with what that is. Don't suppose you would care to enlighten me?

Hmmm, I didn't notice that before. Doesen't leave you with much cargo capacity in the 1.5 ton trailer, does it? :-?

I really like Neils M109 trailer, but I'd like something that takes up less room in the yard. Not only that. I don't feel like doing all the fabricating on the hitch and setting up the brakes, wiring, etc. A 280 or similar on a Bolster trailer or something comparable is certainly not out of...
