    Hose Job

    Hunting season is just around the corner and I have decided to keep the deuce at the hunting lease this year during season. Plan to bring it home sometime in February. Since I will be driving it 150 miles away and it will need to be READY each weekend when I show up. Or at least each weekend...

    In Tank Fuel Pump popping fuses

    My fuel pump is blowing fuses as soon as I install them. I pulled it today and plan to tinker with it this evening. Going to series a couple batteries together and see what I can get it to do. What do you guys think? Am I just wasting my time or is there any chance that I could breathe some...

    Changing hoses

    I am working on changing all the belts and hoses on the Deuce and replacing all the hose clamps with T-Bolt hose clamps. That said I need to know if any of you have a better way to get the hose between these two pieces without taking off the valve covers. I have the new valve cover gaskets on...

    Hose & clamp change

    Does anyone have a good idea how to change this hose. I am going to replace all my hose clamps with T-Bolt type clamps and plan to replace all my hoses and belts at the same time. As I was looking things over and getting measurements for the new T-Bolt hose clamps I saw this and said this is...

    HELP!!! 12VDC Trailer Lights on 24VDC Deuce

    Guys I need help, input, guidance, hand holding or what ever will work. I have figured out the pin out on the trailer light hook up on my Deuce.

    12VDC Trailer Lights on a Deuce?

    I am sure this has been posted somewhere but I haven't found it. Is there a way to make 12vdc trailer lights work on our 24vdc trucks. I was wondering if maybe tapping into the existing tail light wiring and then putting some resistors in series with the circuit might do it. Has anyone had to...

    New Muffler Sounds Um.....

    Well I took the truck out for a spin today to check out the new muffler while driving. It is great how quite it is but there is now a new twist. It's wierd but I miss the old sound it made. Seems like maybe I castrated my truck. Also I can now hear every loose panel and vibration. Good news...

    Air Hydraulic Unit

    I am thinking about rebuilding my Air Hydraulic Unit. The reason is that When I drive the truck it often makes a howling noise from the rear breaks when I start off from a stop. I think what is happening is that the AHU is letting air continue to hold pressure on the hydraulic line even after...

    Draft Tube Question

    I don't know if what I am thinking of doing is good or bad. Also not sure if I am just masking a bigger problem. Here's the deal. My draft tube emits a little smoke (Exhaust) when I first crank it up. More specifically it always emits SOME exhaust but more when I first crank it up. Nothing...

    Tight Quarters

    I Changed the output shaft seal on the front rear axle and the input shaft seal on the last rear axle yesterday. The second or last axle went pretty smooth. I thought it would be the more difficult of the two. Negative.... The front rear was a challenge. The nut on the pinion shaft that...

    Dang Retaining Ring

    I have begun the Front Axle Service. I have all all torn apart now and the old seal pushed back into the axle. It's been a whale of a morning. NOW I can't get the DANG retaining ring out. I used a six inch gear puller with the grabber fingers turnd out and leveraged it against a peice of 1"...

    Front Axle TM?

    Friday I used the deuce to actually do some work. Drove it about 80 miles round trip to acquire some flagstone for around the house. Why go 80 Miles for flagstone?..... Cause it was free and gave me a great excuse to work/drive the deuce. Also that much flagstone would have squashed my...

    Air Pressure Warning Won't Stop Buzzing

    I went in to drop my Pickup off at the shop where I keep the deuce to have the rear axle seals replaced just a minute ago. But that's not what I came to talk about..... When I started the deuce to drive it home since I left the pickup at the shop and needed a way home.... The air pressure...

    Turn Up The Boost?

    Why would one want to turn up the boost on their LDT465 and if there were a good reason how would one (I) go about it? My first diesel is my deuce and I really don't know much about diesels.
