I've been contacted by Resthaven Memory Gardens, in Moore OK, requesting that local MV owners (and their trucks) attend a ceremony to be held about 10:00 AM on Memorial Day at the cemetery. We have attended several internments for KIA soldiers at Resthaven and they have been very supportive and...

First and foremost; everyone walked away! So last week I adjusted my front brakes, today I adjusted my rear brakes. It's amazing how much better the truck stops, I would venture to say it stops great! And I got to test the brakes this evening! As I was driving the bobbed Deuce home from...

I've got an A3 that the owner wants done in an arctic camo paint scheme; white, gray and black. With the camo layout pictures in TB 43-0209, I used my notebook computer and projector to display the image on the truck so I could trace the color outlines.... It worked great!

I usually drive my truck around 2200 to 2300 RPM, it runs great and does not leak. If I push it to 2500 RPM it belches out a big puddle of oil from the engine rear main seal when I shut it down. I was discussing it with a diesel mechanic friend of mine who said the crankcase pressure was too...

I'm sending a truck to Nevada, any tricks or issues I should know about in regards to tagging it there? It's got a current Oklahoma tag and title.

So I picked up a used engine for an old GSA Deuce with a tired motor that I'm bringing back to life. One of the Steel Soldiers members was kind enough to find one and deliver it to me. The motor was delivered strapped down on a trailer, sitting on some old tires. On the last turn into my...

Howdy All, I've uploaded a page giving various measurements for bobbing a deuce. Will you guys look it over; to make sure it make sense to those who haven't bobbed one and there aren't any glaring errors! How Much Do I Cut Off? Thanks,

If you want to see the steps involved in flipping hubs; I flipped the hubs on a truck yesterday and finished-up the "How To: Hub Flip" page on my website: Hub Flip Enjoy!

I don't like GL-1 gear oil and wanted something "better" in my transfer case and transmission. GL-1 is hard to find, and finding one with a corrosion inhibitor is even harder! So I called my local HD truck driveline shop, Blumenthal's. They gave me the tech support phone number to Meritor...

Howdy All, Ok, I admit it, I've got no new technical innovations! But; I'm just about done with my current Bobbed Deuce project and want to see what you guys think of it. In particular, what do you think could be done better and what have I overlooked. This truck is one that StreeBikeDepot...

I want to seal up the hole in the firewall that the steering column goes through.... The correct part number for "Pad, Steering Gear" is: 2530-00-924-1556 or 10896759. I can't seem to find one and have never seen one. It looks like, from remnants of material left on the firewall, that this...

I picked up an M105A2 today. Mike W

It's been snowing like crazy here in central Oklahoma today, 14" so far (that's a whole lot for us), and I had to make a run to my warehouse to pick up one of my wife's Christmas presents (a new washing machine, and yes she loved it!). I was forced to back up the hill leading to me house...

Hello All, I'm looking for a set of ten 11.00x20 tires. I know lots of folks have them, and at great prices, but by the time I ship the to my place in Oklahoma City it starts costing a fortune! I was hoping to find someone within a hundred miles or so of me, that way I could go pick them up...

I am the proud owner of another Deuce! Special thanks to Warthog, Street Bike Depot and one of their friends (don't know his nickname) for their GREAT effort in getting this truck from Hooks to me... I owe you all a lot!! No inspection was allowed for this GL auction, but I got lucky! It's a...

Howdy All, I ran across, here on the site, info about the XM381. If you don't know, that's the "bobbed" deuce that the military experimented with in the '50s but never produced. Using the XM381 info and my own truck, I made a bobbed deuce data plate. Since mine isn't experimental, I dropped...
