By defenition it's not a flaw. If you believe that it is, fine with me. I believe that you are flawed but I'n not constantly posting that. Maybe you could refrain from falsely labeling the truck as flawed. Now as far as rectifying the flaw,you can't if its not there. You may mean improving you...

I would rather keep the thread. I can bring it back to top every year or so just to make everyones blood is flowing.

For the umpteenth time, its not a design flaw. Is that such a hard thing to understand? It wasn't your specification and it wasn't your dept of defense. The vehicle hasn't failed. The gov't ordered and purchased what it wanted, not what you wanted. Gheesh, it's like trying to explain driveline...

I would be interested in the cost/benefit analysis. Myy deuce cost me $1177. Adding 3 air lockers pushes it over 4 grand or 4 times the price. I doubt that it will go 4 times as deep in the weeds. A better investment for me was a winch and recovery gear. I already have the skills to use the...

If I had lockers at my house, I would be outside installing them and prepping for the video instead of lurking in the basement behind the computer trying to convince an entire forum that short of devine intervetion, nothing moves without lockers. Lock that sucker up and bring it to a rally...

There was a multifuel thread with this member that was equally brain splitting.

If you haven't had your fill yet, check out the banter in this thread compliments of our word troll! http://www.steelsoldiers.com/deuce/30821-all-dueces-multifuel.html

BTT (for those needing something to read or need to feed a splitting headache)

Would you like more :popcorn:?

Will you be able to afford to do what you want to this truck and still afford the trip. That Tulsa winch alone outcosts a deuce.

Dangit Ernie, you owe me a keyboard. I spat soda all over the darned thing reading your post/stunt! (side hurts)

Is this enough for everyone or should I keeo popping? :popcorn::popcorn::popcorn::popcorn::popcorn: :popcorn::popcorn::popcorn::popcorn::popcorn:

That's your opinion. The Gov't didn't see it that way. The answer to the question in the title of this thread is very simple. The deuce doesn't have these because they weren't part of the military design standard. You can cross out never because now you have the answer to the question of the...

I've dealt with winches all my adult life. Hydraulics can be real workhorses but hose failures aren't easy to remedy in the woods. Like Lanty, if I were to have another electric, it would be the 8274. They suck juice but work quite well. Refer to the top truck challenge in 2007. The folks...

I can get any deuce out with a deuce winch. It's adequatre for the intended job. I wasn't told this and I didn't read it either, it's from real world experience. FWIW, the front axle weight on a multifuel deuce with winch is near what the stock 900x20 tires are rated at. Adding more weight would...

I have to add my customary :popcorn: to this entertaining thread! Thanks! :popcorn: :popcorn: :popcorn: :popcorn: :popcorn: :popcorn:
