What did you do to your deuce this week?

[connectingbar]

Changed the oil, installed a Vic 1 system.

Well, this weekend I began my preparations to sand-blast and prime the whole truck. I took the bed off and set it to the side to be blasted away from the truck so I can do the frame and axles/back of the cab un-hindered. Still have to remove all the lights, grilled, and cover the glass with steel tape. Im going to seal the cab from the inside as best I can and all openings in engine, trans, seals, breathers, etc. Im renting a 180CFM diesel screw compressor and an industrial blaster/ supplied air breather and I will be using medium grit coal slag...pics forthcoming

Replaced a bad fuel tank, bad fuel pump, installed a new fuel sender while I had the tank off, and finished off with a new set of fuel filters. Now my wallet is gasping for air. I hope for a good recovery.

I tinkered around all week after work on the Deuce. I installed an interior armor light in the cab, and re-installed the gauge panel for my boost and pyro. The boost gauge was operational for the event this weekend, but the pyro was not. Installing the pyro pre-turbo is a little more work than a post-turbo installation. This week I'm going to see what my toe-in/out is, front tires are cupping on the outsides. My wallet isn't so bad, I've had these items either previously installed or on the shelf.

FINALLY installed the gun ring I bought back in August last year.

Let me know if that helps. My tires wear the same. Seems to be the "norm".

I've tried adjusting air pressure, that didn't seem to work. Gonna try this and see. A Club Member fashioned a toe in/out checker out of PVC, I'm going to copy it and check my front end. I'll let you know.

Removed the medium tow bar from the bumper ( http://www.steelsoldiers.com/deuce/72889-feedback-needed-towbar-mount.html )

Installed LED head lights - and am very impressed with them!

Congratz to the kids on their prom and upcoming graduation!

BTW: I have an aunt who lives in your town. (95th Ave. Ct. E.) Anywhere near you? I might need to arrange a trip

That's about 5 miles from me.

That is awesome! My senior prom is in a few weeks and if I cant get the Corvette done, the M1028 is definitely the #2 vehicle of choice, if I can convince my date!

Went to a car show today

 

[HASSON1911]

funny thing about MV going to proms. But I can't own a deuce and not just not take it to my last prom.

 

[cajun666]

Change thermostat drain and flush coolant replace air horn after market cause the real thing is to **** high.

 

[Deucenut]

Changed the oil, drained the fuel filters, and found my air leak (both the tank drain .petcocks leak). It has been a good week

 

[Rubenk]

Ordered all of the filters and hope to do my first oil change when I get to my truck in a few days. As well as new headlight so i'm not running around like a pirate.

 

[islandguydon]

Replaced the air cleaner and installed a solargizer, I silicon-ed it to the top of the hard top passenger rear corner and ran the wires down the back of the cab to the battery box, I secured the wires wrapped in the black flexi stuff to the existing 109 box wires with tie straps.

 

[wrath243]

I am new to this site but it has helped immensely with the learning curve on my m35a2. I just completed a 1700 mile trip with everything I own in the back of the deuce. It was a long trip but the beast ran great!

 

[islandguydon]

WRATH243, I have done a few trips loaded down. I am glad your multi fuel was kind to you.
