    towing a m818 with a deuce

    getting it hauled would cost me about 800, that is the cheapest offer I have had on U-ship so far. the seller is going to look into what it would cost to have it fixed at a local shop, he is going to let me know monday. If I tow it I am going to try and go on the Friday, or Saturday after...

    towing a m818 with a deuce

    I have read of people towing 5 tons with their deuces 500 miles or more, and I would not have any worries towing it in most cases, but I will have to go through Chicago, even If I go through at an off peak time of day, I still have some worries and questions. 1. Brakes, can you get the m818's...

    m818 with winch $3000

    I bought it so I broke down and gave him what he wanted, it doesn't hurt to try to get it for less, even though I knew it was good deal anyway, I may try to have him get it fixed before I go and get it, and I'll pay the shop bill. or should I just try and find a person to haul it for me? He...

    deuce hauling, WI to NM

    I sold my deuce on e-bay, and the buyer needs help shipping, he didn't realize how much it would cost to ship it, I believe he is willing to pay around 2000 dollars to get it there, seems like a nice guy, he just used the shipping calculator on ebay, and it was way off, the deuce is drivable...

    deuce brake adjustment

    I want to adjust the brakes on my deuce, as they work very well, but pedal must be pushed about half way before they start to grab, if you pump them once, they are very firm from the moment you touch them, so I assume it is the adjustment, my problem is that I am having a hard time finding how...

    1. anyways I just got my second deuce delivered, after getting it I noticed that it started a lot quicker than my first when cold, after doing a little research I decided to try and turn up the pump a little on deuce 1, I turned it up 2 flats on the adjuster nut, so like 1/3 turn, it now seems...

    A Word for the Wise

    there should be no worry about being cut, or losing a job at ups, I have worked their 5+ years, I am actually quitting (2 days left) I am getting a full time job, what has been happening at UPS is that when someone quits, they just don't replace that person, the medical is the only reason I...

    Easy question re lug nuts

    I had to change a few tires on mine, broke my 3/4 inch breaker bar, good thing it was a craftsman, while looking around my farm I found an old lugnut wrench and about a 2 foot bar that came from 1 of our old chevy c-60 grain trucks, It is an amazing feeling jumping up and down on the bar waiting...

    recovery gone good; can you tell me the trucks history?

    I was able to drive it home 220 miles with almost no problems, the only problem was just a mental issue of getting over seeing 0 on the oil pressure gauge, it went dead about halfway home after jumping around a bit, I put a new gauge in today and pressure is 30 at idle and 45-50 while driving...
