Can a deuce tow a 5 ton? Physically, yes. Practically, no. If I had to move a truck a few miles at low speed with an escort that I could run into if I could not stop, I might chance it. However, I suggest that you avoid this if at all possible. If you have to make a panic stop, you will not...
Don't even pay attention to the miles/hours...or at best only cursory attention. As has been stated above, the condition of the truck is more important. I've seen and owned trucks with 2,000 hours or more that run way better than a low hour truck.
I've said this before...the GL pictures...
Welcome, Koulis! I would check with JATONKA (John Tennis) on this list. I believe he has a good selection of manuals, but I am not sure if he has what you need. If you, please post some pics of your trucks! It would be interesting to see your fleet!
Good luck!
BOBH: I like the laws in MI! The insurance has always been the easy part for me...the tags have been the problem since I don't always know the VIN. Congrats on the recovery and thanks for the response.
While I would rather have a fuel burning heater or a hot water heater in that order, the heater that DEUCEMAN offers is a great alternative. Best of all, while it is the incorrect heater for a deuce, it is still "correct" since I personally owned a truck that came out with a M151 heater...
They are available...if you can find them. They are hard to come by. I just sold a kit to another SteelSoldier member. If for whatever reason it does not sell, I'll repost it.
There really is no comparison between the fuel burning and hot water heaters as others have stated above. I was running the fuel burning heater at Aberdeen this past year and the windshield was literally smoking when rain hit it! Man, that thing was toasty!
You did the right thing, Rob. I take no offense. I'll explain it better over a few brews at Aberdeen...like last year. Maybe, PINKIE can take us on some more midnight off-road runs. Speaking of PINKIE, anyone seen him? He seems to have been AWOL recently.
Here are a couple of pics of where it should mount in the engine compartment of a truck that a fellow SteelSoldier member is selling. Mike Pop, I hope it was OK to borrow your pics off of your listing...
Rob, you have a great point...and it is a point that probably should be addressed. I know I don't check the classifieds and only see the ads that scroll on the right side of the screen...even then, I only catch them by chance...by chance that I look over there. I honestly posted this because...
...an NOS fuel burning heater kit for the rear compartment of a deuce cargo? I do not believe that I have everything to complete the install, but what is there is NOS. I have the following:
Fuel burning heater
Fuel burning heater control
Metal "bird cage" that goes around the heater to...
