    Rim Ring Position?

    Mine are all over the place. I would GUESS the opening is opposite the stem. (I could look it up, but I'm not going to break mine down just to rotate the ring).

    Recovery possibilities FL 800 miles?

    Pretty sure the U-haul tow bar is WAY too light, the trucks don't have pintle hitches for the med bar, and lastly a deuce won't fit in a U-Haul.

    Recovery possibilities FL 800 miles?

    You aren't going to tow one with a pickup and dolly. I wouldn't go 800 miles unless I had a spare airpack, master, at least 2 wheel cylinders, hose set, and a gallon of DOT 5. Plus you will need tools, jack, jack stands, hub socket etc..... The list will be long.

    Find the right Deuce

    You should be able to get a very nice one for under 5K.

    Deuce hard tops

    Talked to them Friday.

    runaway engine?

    Don't use a rag. I get those rubber caps and hold it on with a hose clamp.

    Deuce hard tops

    Yes they do. They take your info and add it to the next order.

    runaway engine?

    It's a 1" hole in the back of the air cleaner assy. There is a hose that attaches to it and goes to the air compressor in the fording kit. If you had a runaway and plugged the intake at the mushroom, it would still run (though slower) through this opening.

    M656 aluminum bed found - complete

    I thought his was origionally a cargo variant, but he couldn't find the bed? The more I look I may have been wrong. I know he was looking for a bed in the past. The ones in GA and FL are both missing the bed sides.

    M656 aluminum bed found - complete

    If nothing else save the bed "sides" there's 2 beds on the east coast but they don't have sides/seats.

    Armored Deuce

    That's a huge amount of weight. What would be the purpose?

    runaway engine?

    The 3 trucks I have seen runaway had sat for a long time. Every truck I own has the fording tube capped as soon as I get it. Keep the mushroom loose and you are done. Absolutely no need for an extinguisher. (though I do have one in the truck for a fire).

    Deuce hard tops

    Another way to think of it: GMA soft tops were $171 last time I bought one, they are $350 now.:cookoo: (makes hard tops look like a better deal)

    bridge plate numbers?

    Alot of people incorrectly believe this. The manual will explain how it is computed. Weight is only a part of it.

    Deuce hard tops

    Mine was $400 like new.

    runaway engine?

    I wouldn't do the rag. But you can easily kill a deuce with your hands if the fording opening is plugged. (a board does work better tho)

    Run Away

    If the 1" hole is plugged and you cover the intake it WILL shut it down at WOT.

    Run Away

    Well, between the first 2 posts it was still running and it was 12 minutes. I know if I had a runaway (had 2) I wouldn't be posting in between. Maybe you need to rethink owning a deuce?

    runaway engine?

    Why not just plug the 1" opening and leaving the mushroom loose? You can kill it with your hand. :beer:

    My new M220 soon to be camper

    They are currently broke down west of Chamberlin, SD. Truck is overheating. They removed the thermostat, It overheats within a mile. They are currently looking for a place to drop the truck. Looking either like a clogged radiator or waterpump.
