    1600s on a deuce with manual steering

    I have 14.00's on mine and drive it wherever I happen to be going. Got a little imbalance at 45 mph but smooth at 55. No issues driving in town.

    Got my 105 Cover from Glen

    This is a NICE cover I got from 91W350. I just wanted to show the world how good it looks on my truck. Can you say portable hunting blind??? Thanks Glen!

    Too much smoke????

    OK then, what is the proper procedure for detuning after the FDC is bypassed? I did the bypass when I first got the truck. I'm easy on it too, but dont want to hurt it. Seems like there would be an rpm setting (I have the tach in the truck and a handheld), a temp setting, a screw it all the...

    Too much smoke????

    My truck seems to smoke a LOT. It is a NON-TURBO multifuel. It does not smoke at all when cruising under no-load, but as soon as I hit a hill I can literally lay out a rope of smoke. Coming back from a car show recently, my friends in a Model A had to ask me to let them in front, as the smoke...

    Bobbed deuce at 55 mph-video

    We drove the truck about 35 miles to a car show last Sunday and my son shot this video. The 14.00's make the speedo off almost exactly 10 mph according to my gps. I had just flipped the rear hubs on Saturday, so it was a good test run to see if having the rear wheels track the front helped the...

    Exhaust out the back or side?

    I dont plan on hauling people in the bed. I do have a high end 3-1/2" in and out muffler on it, and it is still dang loud. I had it straight up with a rain cap, now a 90 turned out-not much difference. I wonder how much engine / tranny noise there still is without the exhaust noise. I dont...

    super single wheels and tires

    Hey guys. I'm running 14.00R20's on my deuce. I am doing what apparently can't be done. It is bobbed and has a M105 bed and the rear hubs are flipped so the rears follow the same tracks as the fronts. While my bed is spaced up 3" off the frame, and I angled the 2 middle crossmembers on the...

    Exhaust out the back or side?

    I am sure that someone on here had done this mod, but I can't find it back... I'm interested in running my deuce exhaust either out the rear of the truck or out the side. If you have done this, please let me know what size you used and throw up some pics for me. It would be greatly...

    BIG Bob Job!!!

    Does that mean I just look stupid, or my truck is only acceptable for advertising???? I'm not, and it isn't. What color is yours 3dAngus??? Or are you like the guy who said he didn't like Butterscotch as a Corvette color as he looked at my car...I asked what color his was...you know, he...

    How much frame to take off for a bobber?

    I cut 36" out of mine. I measured 14 times and cut once, but I was also using a M105 trailer for a bed. If you look at my post "getting closer to bob" you can follow what I did. The way I did it may not be the only or best way, but it sure worked out well for me. If you are going to use the...

    Deuce Insurance Prices - How much do you pay?

    I am an agent here in Missouri. I have my deuce insured for liability only for $55 every 6 months. Progressive!

    Someone asked for a canary yellow one???? Here's mine.

    Bobber with air ride...finished???

    By the way, the truck levels up as soon as I start it up. It is sitting butt down in the picture as the air is all bled off....

    Bobber with air ride...finished???

    I'd like to say that I am finished with my deuce bob project, but we all know you are never really done. The paint is Pittsburgh semi-gloss exterior latex applied with an airless sprayer. Yeah, it has some sags and runs, but I am impatient and painted it when it was 102 degrees outside. I...

    Airpack to air tank line replacement

    I did a switch to Nylon 6/6 DOT approved air line and push connect fittings on mine. Easy to do and easy to unhook if you ever need to.
