It is always a good feeling when you get to use your deuce regardless of what you are doing. All the maintenance we do and they sit, then run for a couple of miles/hours, but to get to use, priceless.
I wish I could get to Brute. Poor guy is surrounded by water from snow melt and rain. I get the boat out after I get back from Gimpyrobbs with my fender and get mounted. As I have the fender off I plan on fuel line replacement, good wiring check out. If he is not under by then. No I don't have...
Just ran Brute to fuel stop about 18 miles RT. Put $60 in which filled the tank. I try to keep full but others just use. Had to add a gallon of 50/50. He always runs better on diesel than WO mix.
Turned the heat on. My boy started right up with a spirt of starting fluid. Drove around the yard a little. Waited for school bus sitting in him since so cold. Some ice in the governor but melted out and air built up. I need to work on the sheet metal. Both fenders got bent up and both mirrors...
Throughout history, those in power will take advantage. Good example are the Nevada officers confinscasing cash from travelers and not giving a receipt! They are instructed to do so. Got caught on utube braging about the cash, showing the incar video and audio to all.
The entire government is...
With WMO that I run in the summer and tank having 15 or so gallons of that mixture and cold weath coming and that He sits a lot the gasoline helps. I use premium due to ethonal content and premium is more stable sitting. I am sure over the winter He will sit for weeks at a time but when I need...
Cold weather prep. Turn heater water on, check coolant level and freeze point. Add one quart of cool it to radiator which helps to minimize cavitation and lowers operating temp. Check all fluid levels. Check tires. Close all cab openings. Include blanket in breakdown kit. Be sure all safety gear...
Two new batteries, paint bumpers, oil and filter changer, primary fuel filter changed, inspected. Trip postponed 6 to 8 months. House deal fell through. It never ends!
Two front tires on one rear mounted ready to go on.
First off "Thank you to all who help us with our hobby". Now after thousands of miles, thousands of dollars, one wrecked pickup and trailer my tires are going on. I am still torn over which wheel to use. I landed 12 tires and 20 MRAP rims. I...
Ok who in Arizona?I let a friend use and he drove the front wheel off, literally. We manage to put new outer bearing an muse home at 10 mph. He broke it so made him fix and drive home. He failed to do a pretrip inspection or investigate noise yes he heard but thought it was dirt. Now new...
Took Brutus sledding. Well he pulled the kids around on sleds. He had fun in 6 inches of snow with 3 sleds in tow and bunch of people in bed. Low range 2nd gear was fast enough to lose a couple in the turns. Drove 1/4 mile and kids were cold so in the cab with heat blasted I had 5 young ones and...
Installed remote brake ressovar. Replaced one wheel cylinder and set of brake shoes. Found and repaired coolant leak at oil cooler. Bled brakes and rechecked for leaks, none. Took ride with neighbor hood. Ordered new exhaust elbow out of turbo. Drove to doctors, man she runs good. Inspected tire...

If you are being beat by Deuce electrical then you should buy new and have another drink. Old trucks = bad grounds! bad connections! broken wires! crumbling insulation! Shorts. New car can have same issue if parked in a field for years. Mine is a 1971 and so far starter rebuilt, new alternator...
