I bet the mech. just doesnt care for the deuce, he has no interest in them. When he has to work on them and do research to find parts he gets frustrated because he can just walk over to the computer and punch in a part# and have the part delivered to his door.
If you didnt get pics atleast share the contact info so someone else here has a chance to pick it up. (and take the "free tour" just to see what else he has.
Ditto recovery4x4's post. Nice and smooth with the clutch work and at idle. If you put the pin in from the pintle I would check that hole again, on both the input shaft and the pto shaft. There should be no play what-so-ever.
M920 mentioned using Equal in his last project with 16's on HEMMT wheels. Maybe he will see this and speak up. I'd like to know more for when I can afford tires for my 818
If you really need a work truck and not a toy I would look elsewhere. I'd love one to play with but if I had to actually use it to get somewhere day in and day out it would get old in a hurry. Slow, noisy, rough riding, and no creature comforts what so ever.
Anyway you can get soome pics of...
The Darwin Awards
Jumping from a moving vehicle and taking the chance of getting squished by your own car or the next one coming down the road? I believe that would qualify to be in the running for the next Darwin Award
You can run larger tires and custom wheels with a different offset. Lots of guys running bobbed trucks run the modified HMMET wheels.
Look through this thread for all the different wheels that can be used on the front of a Deuce...
Wasn't there some aftermarket tops put out at one time that had pads molded in for the clearence lights on the roof?
You could search out one of those.
Edit: Check out the top in the first pic in this thread. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/deuce/60040-how-much-should-i-offer-deuce.html
I dont know if this is the intended purpose, but they could be used for this.
and the second pic is how you use the rears to pull you out from the back. (from field manual 20-22)
