    All the stuff I did to my deuce, right here

    Don't forget to dampen the winch cable when you use it to extract yourself or others. A floormat, jacket or something else placed on top of the winch cable mid point along the cable will protect you and others from a whiplash effect if the cable were to snap. You had plenty of cute little...

    HanksDeuce: 8" Lift, Bobbed, External Cage, A/C and more Project!

    Although it was 30% chance of rain all day I headed out to the home of Timntrucks. Tim finished welding up the rear lift blocks, plates, and cross tubes for me. We test fit the M105A2 bed one last time. I marked the patient for surgery. With help from the wonderful XM381.com website I...

    Geared lug wrench

    I bought this one from LugWrench.Biz. It's got a 58:1 conversion. Timntrucks has seen me use it on my deuce at his house. It's the coolest thing since cold beer. Well, maybe not that cool. It's $160 plus the ride. :beer:

    HMMWV Honeycomb Wheels/Tires...

    As found on the Tweel Wikipedia page: "The Tweel does have several flaws, however, the worst being vibration. Above 50*mph (80*km/h), the Tweel vibrates considerably, which in itself is a problem that also gives rise to undesired noise and heat. A fast-moving Tweel is unpleasantly loud[3] and...

    Thank you so much for the intake part number. The Mack part number cross referenced to Donaldson H001660, and I found one at filterspro.com ($122). Next question, what shocks did you go with? They look like Rancho. I want a single shock front/rear, and my bobber is 13 inches taller than with...

    I snagged a 24v wireless GoLight Spotlight from the SS classifieds. It should be here soon. Waiting on a set of deuce front springs to finish the rear of the lift kit install. Then we tackle the front part of the truck for the lift kit install!

    Deloit, check the 3 picture albums that Toxic has listed in his profile. He has pictures of the steps down. Other construction pics there too! Love this truck! So, what did you snag the intake from?

    HanksDeuce: 8" Lift, Bobbed, External Cage, A/C and more Project!

    For the past few weeks I have been installing the lift kit with help from Timntrucks and lilbob. I drilled 40 holes for the rear blocks using the 1/4" cryobit first then following up with a 1/2" cryobit. I used 3-in-1 oil at least 3-4 times on each bit for each hole. It took 3-4 minutes per...

    MRAP wheels and tires on a deuce?

    Sorry to keep the thread on a tangent, but here's my 4 1/2 year old male Great Dane, Hudson. He's 190 lbs. My wife's occupation is a professional dog handler. Hudson is an AKC Champion, Grand Champion, and a Canine Good Citizen. He's also one helluva guard dog for the deuce! Here is a...
