    Engine coolant heater

    How is your coolant heater installed on the truck as far as which ports are used for the water? I bet the 220V one will also do well on 120V if it is high enough wattage. I have a water-type personnel heater installed already, would I just plumb it into that line? I have some new respect for...

    Check valve for oil filters?

    Here is the plug Devilman96 suggested. looks like there might be enough room to do the job there especially if a reducing plug such as on the master cylinder was used with a smaller size 90-degree elbow (room to swing the eblow). the spotty yellowish lighting is my targeting lamp for taking...

    Looking at getting a Deuce, how much did you get yours for?

    Oh no I feel happy about it, because I know it had a history of private ownership and some accountability as to what was good and bad with it. That is the value of the extra money, for I am not a gambler at those stakes! Therein lies the value. If I had the $ I would buy a unit from Clarke or...

Bought from Jeff Symanski with assurances there were no issues that would prevent me driving it home to texas from Virginia was it?

    HELP - Deuce Master Cyclinder Leak

    RE: Re: RE: Brake light switch No objections there. How about sponsors at the top, followed by a listing sorted by state or by name? It would be good to list every supplier there is, large and small. For the purpose of this thread, emmando22's offer of $50 sounds pretty good.

    11.00x20 on a 9.00x20 wheel?

    The difference in circumference is about 9%, instead of 55 you will go 59, and have only 91% of your tourque. It is barely noticeable since the truck isn't too powerful anyway. I have enjoyed mine very much, and I use them to at 55 to turn less RPMs, which is good for the engine. If you keep...
