Installed my new (to me) drivers seat. Heard it came out of a Porsche but not bad for $20 and it matches the other seats I just installed :naner:

I finally changed the passenger seat on the deuce, I was wondering why no one wanted to go for a ride..lol. Anyway I got this from a guy that was parting out a short bus which I think was for the handicapped as the seat tilts up out of the way. If anyone is interested I think the guy has a few...

Drove my deuce over to a local guy who is selling his 5 ton for a ridiculous price in my opinion. But I did get to drive her! Wow that power steering is so nice:drool:! Wish I had the $$ to buy it. When I drove mine back I got a new rattle to figure out, I think she got jealous..

Finally got around to changing my compressor belt.. see pic.. also changed the alt belts which were loose.. Now I got awesome air pressure and my batteries are getting charged correctly.

Took the Deuce to meet the Conway truck that had my Bendpak lift on it. Used a generator and an electric winch to get it on the back.. it was 1600 pounds shipping weight.. now to finish up the install

Mine had a rubber washer which was over-stretched. I created a new one out of gasket material, that worked out great.

Bought Jatonka's oil filter spin on adaptor kit at the Sussex show on Sat and installed it on Sunday. Also finally hooked up my Key'd battery cut-off switch that only took like 15 min to do. Don't know why I waited so long on either of these upgrades..

I finally replaced my flexible fuel line in the front, I know, I know it looks like crap with all the fittings but it was the only way I found I could do it with what I had available. I didn't feel like trying to find the perfect NOS replacement and now if anything happens it's parts that can be...

Do you have a battery maintainer/charger that de-sulfates? I have brought both my deuce batteries back to life with it. The Battery Minders are the ones I use. I use two 12v chargers every now and then and it keeps them both nice and fresh.

Finally fixed and remounted my gas tank on the deuce. Another botched job from the guy who bobbed it. He mounted it too low with not enough bolts so it broke off. Now I have better clearance and better bolts! Had it strapped up since Sept 13, nice to see it fixed now.. You can see in my...

Drove it to Home Depot after a quick charge of the batteries.. yeah you know where this is going. Got her all loaded up with wood for the deck, right around closing time (10pm) on Sat. Go to crank and nothing.. darn! Asked a guy for help and he got one of the cashiers to bring her car over to...

Drove mine to work on Monday, the first nice day of weather. A 70 mile round trip and she ran great! Stopped off at the local marina because a guy on CL had a boat with water mixed in the gas. That was a free 50 gallons or so which will mix nicely with my WMO.

Finally got around to rebuilding my rear brake calipers. Not as bad as I thought! The rear drums were dragging a little and after a trip around town the rear drums heated up to around 180 when the fronts were around 105 degrees. Neither were leaking but after taking them apart one looked like...

RECONJON, I have to agree with you as to the sparce parts up here and some people think they have rusty gold.. and that's unfortunate.. Here are some pics of my truck, first is rear hubs flipped and then with the new rear end I got that is Not flipped. For clearance of the M105 bed I like it...

Well I didn't use the deuce, but put my M105 trailer to work picking up a 275 gallon heating oil tank. Also had about 85 gallons of good heating oil in it! That went right into the tank at home. That's about $300 of heating oil for Free! And now I have a nice big tank for my WMO too!

No need for extra pics, that was enough and just what I needed. Thanks again and happy motoring!

Thanks for the vid Valence! Sounds great.. I needed a closeup of the mirrors on that side as I just got a new set like that to replace my missing one.. Needed to see where all the rods go. Perfect! Thanks!! And to keep with the thread.. I drove the heck out of my Deuce this weekend, now that...
