I don't have an answer about the Hydraulic Heads. I've measured them all and they are all the same. I don't have a spring gauge though so maybe there are different spring tensions. That would only be for higher RPM's though. I went with the factory seals from AMBAC. The booster pump "kit" costs...

I know you want a way to air your truck up in the garage. You stated that unhooking the air-compressor was a pain, but isn't this more of a pain ? You still have to get in the truck and start up your compressor then start up the truck. I know it's your truck and all and your doing a great job...

I forget. This picture shows the little heel bar I used to remove all the oil seals. It was the easiest removal method and didn't cause any damage to the bore.

Picture one shows me torqueing the "Allen" bolts. Picture two shows a nice close-up of why I used stainless steel "Allen" head bolts. They are much easier to torque then "Phillips Head" bolts and they won't rust ! These two pictures show something extremely important ! This hole I'm...

I had planned on submitting all my pictures at once of my Injection Pump rebuild, but since it is taking so long due to my being sick for one and having to have made-up a "cam" bearing installation socket I decided I would start now. The first thing I rebuilt after spending weeks cleaning up...

Since the oil fitting under the pump bodies seems to get damaged a lot I decided to find my own. Since I came up empty handed with all my fitting sources I decided to make my own. I bought a few "tall 90 degree" 1/8" NPT by 4AN fittings and a 1/16" NPT x 4AN straight fitting. After drilling the...

OK, how much is all this going to cost you ? A simple "stainless steel" air tank can be bought for under $120.00 to $150.00. Never rust, needs no electricity to run, takes up minimum space. At this point I gotta ask, are you doing this just "because" ? If so that's OK. It's your truck and how...

But can your "rusian" heater be bought here in America ? If not it's not much use to us.

Since the transfer-case is meant to "shift on the fly" the Spirex 50W would be an excellent choice.

Post a picture or price sheet for us to see.

This should be a regular check for anyone who ones a Deuce or any vehicle. You should regularly check all lines and hoses for rubbing and chaffing and properly secure them. During our regular scheduled maintenance on all our buses one of the things on the check-off list is to check all lines and...

If you cannot find one of the old military ones you can use some "modern" units. WABCO makes a few as do several other manufactures. They will run all the modern fuels with no problems, including the "ultra low sulpher" fuel. At the transit agency all the modern buses use them since the "Ultra...

If I could find one for a reasonable price I would buy it. The major difference between the Dana 80 and the Dana 70HD is the Dana 80 uses disc brakes and the Dana 70HD uses drums. They are the same weight and strength. Some get confused when comparing the 70 to the 80 but they forget the "Dana...

[Took the wife for a drive, fueled her up (the deuce), got home and checked for leaks, no "new" leaks noted. Really shocked at amount of rust on fuel strainer... always run pump diesel w/2cy Diesel Kleen on occasion. Looks like it's time to clean-out the fuel tank. They can collect a amazing...

Ask and you shall receive.

Ay least your wife actually got in your truck ! Mine hasn't even done that yet.

This is what I recommend you use. Yes you can get "away" with using a straight weight engine oil but that is not the best oil you can use in a manual transmission. Almost all the transmission manufactures recommend you use a "Synthetic 50 weight gear oil" .

Those units sound great. No need to replace brushes or compression rings ! These compressors are the very best in small electric air-compressors and parts are not that pricey. You can even install different motors. They come in 12 volt DC, 24 volt DC, 48 volt DC and 120 volt A/C . I believe they...

At this point does it matter ? If you can buy it cheap enough gears can be easily changed, and lockers added if you think you really need them.

That is one strange leaf spring they use.
