What did you do to your deuce this week?

[Evil Dr. Porkchop]

Congrats on the motorpool acquisition!

Too bad you're so far away. I have a pair of drop sides that could be used on that bed.

 

[Evil Dr. Porkchop]

Thanks, I know where a couple sides are nearby. The previous owner can't remember if he has the sides or not, maybe he'll find them when the snow melts.

 

[welldigger]

I'd make it a flatbed like sewerzuk did. Cut the drop side tabs off the side and build a new headache rack.

Replaced the front p-side axle seal. Again. For the third time in as many years. Sigh.

 

[Evil Dr. Porkchop]

Picked up the deuce today! Took the m931a2 in case there were any problems but it ran great for the 40 mile trip. It has the early Schwitzer 3ld-305 turbo, the engine is a 1973 LDT-465-1C.

New wheels and tires

Well, technically, I didn't do anything except drive 320 miles to pick up (6) 395/18R from Faith

Tire, Thanks Jonathan, they are nice and big. I just goes to show you, if your wife says no, whine every day for weeks and she will cave! Peashooter, I will be talking to you next.

 

[Capriceii]

Started ripping and replacing the brake lines on my 109.

Fun fun

Charged my batteries after not running my Deuce for 9 months. Put the batteries and fired right up no problems, Freakin love this truck!

 

[Rmtaunton]

Pressure washed this weekend , and ordered steel for the bed sides today. I am going to make fold down / removable sides that will do double duty as ramps for the little jeeps. Also noticed rear main is getting worse so I need to go ahead and order parts.

 

[kurtkds]

Test fit it on my low boy.

Got the guy painted and been messing around with my new decal machine. Not a purest so the numbers and letters only have personal meaning. Now I just need to save some $ for super singles.

 

[wilfreeman]

Finished bobbing it and drove about 60 miles today.

I replaced the master cylinder in the Deuce for good measure, then took a load of yard waste to the recycling yard. When I weighed out, I was told that I can't return unless I have a DEP sticker on my tuck since it is a class 8 truck...... That was new, I've dropped off stuff many times over the past few years.....

 

[JimmyThompson]

I broke out the Lube Order and hit the zerks on my M109A3 & M105A2. I fiddled with the wiring too.

 

[25thIDAirAssault]

Disassembled the entire front end sheet metal and brackets, and sandblasted and primed all parts. Did the same for the bumper and brackets. Pics to follow later. Stripped and painted the troop seats.

Very nice! A much better look than the rest of the bobbers.

 

[SETOYOTA]

The first bobber I ever liked
