    Date codes

    I had an early M-series and the date and VIN were stamped on the left and right outer frame rails behind the tire.

    A few more add-ons for a super sweet ride.

    Been wearing a "glow in the dark" military watch for years; is this why my wrist glows?

    schematic in the 361-20 manual

    Pete and Pete, yes, two of them, were here this morning to get truck parts. Pete (Peter Bog) brought me down some of those schematic "drawings" he made. You will be impressed! Especially by the large Mylar ones. Pete used the word redrew and I thought be took a pencil and a rule and hand drew...

    Painted Deuce today (Added phone #'s to obtain CARC paint &

    Local shop sand blasted and painted a deuce dump truck I had for $1500.00. He even raised the bed and did the underside.

    Troop seats

    At that price, it would pay me to go buy them all! The headbaord and racks, even if for a standard length 5-ton bed, will drop right into the 12' M-Series deuce bed. You just don't use the little racks shown in the pic. Naturally, I'm not going out there to get them, I'm in a sell mood. Happily...

    A few more add-ons for a super sweet ride.

    Okay on the hole saw. I have small ones. I wasn't sure if you used a saw or some other method. I've seen various ways, like draw a circle and drill holes all the way around, then snip it out and clean with a file. When I opened the pic it was real big at first and I noticed the deep scratches...

    Troop seats

    All I see in the pic is the headboard and two of the short side pieces for the 5-ton drop side. Are the side racks w/troop seats available too?

    Did you drive or ship your MV when purchased? Please read...

    Just now read your posting, Jonny Reb, and you are so right. That was the first time that I saw a rig like that come here to haul a deuce away, far away at that!

    Bjorn, How did you make the hole in the dash for the clock? In other words, what tool(s)?

    Yep, that's the mod I referred to earlier. It works, but you dont have the original connection.

    Deuce turn signal flasher

    That's a show piece, Deuce! I bent a little and went new school, sort of. I was going to get rid of my '89 Springer that I bought new, but after some mods, I love it. Leaving for Delaware on it in a little while and I sure hope the rain holds off. It took hours and hours to detail it after a...

    Steering Box Adjustment ?

    >Yep, he's right. I have the cupped front tires to prove it too. I always thought that the cupping was due to running 6X6 on hard surfaces.

    Holiday Weekend

    Yes, Bill, I agree. Way back when, people would not pull out in fromt of a large truck (scared), but now they don't want to be behind you, so they jump out.

    Deuce turn signal flasher

    You'd be better off getting an original replacement rather than having to hack your wiring. The electronic flasher is usually mounted on the left fender splash pan under the hood. Shovel, you have a shovel? Pan, 1953, here. Built it in '82 and still riding it.
