Ok all sorry for the slow update, but the weather and most other things decided to get in the way this week. The wife and I went after the truck yesterday. It showed 2 quarts low on engine oil and the tranny was exactly where it should be. So I removed the inspection cover, used 2 cans of brake...

Hey all, looking for some advice from the long term deuce owners. Yesterday I took the deuce for her first longish trip since I've owned her. Only around 60 miles, but she sat a few years before we bought it. Well about 50 miles in the clutch starts slipping on the hills and it continually gets...
