Hi all,
I tried to find a part number for the spindle nut retaing ring on the site but no luck. Does anyone know if there is a Napa part number or some other local number for this part? It is the tabbed ring that goes between the spindle nuts on all 3 axles(they are all the same). You...
I just ordered a tan vinyl top off of ebay today, was 150 plus 20 shipping. Hope I didn't pay too much. I looked on erik's military surplus in cali, they wanted 250 plus shipping for thiers.
Also was wondering how well the vinyl tops hold up over the canvas tops? Canvas doesnt do real well in...
Living in Arizona it gets pretty hot outside so the first thing I did when I bought my deuce was get ot the tape measure and compare the truck to my garage space. Width and height was no big deal but my garage is about 6 inches too short in depth :( .....Tried figuring out if i could take a lil...
The master cylinder is under the floor plate in front of the drivers seat. You have to climb under the truck to take off the vent line then take the cap off. Then go back up in the cab and with a flashlight, look down thru a frame hole (after you open the floor plate by taking the screw out with...
I run Goodyear Wrangler Kevlar on my 1988 GMC Jimmy (Blazer). They run good, nice ride, good traction in sand and mud, not too loud but a nice 4X4 hum on pavement. I am very happy with them. Run em around 30 PSI.

I ended up fixing mine, they are actually pretty basic. What is yours doing?...or not doing?
There was 1 on ebay last week, I bid on it but the last hour I forgot about it and got outbid :(
Mark (deuce newbie)...but getting better
Now its time to learn the brake system, that will be much easier lol.
By the way...is there anyway to ajust the IP timing to peak out the engine performance? or is that even neccessary?
Mark :)
VERY NICE!! thats what I need to keep the sun off me. Garage is a little small, i've actually measured it and tried to figure a way to strech it a couple feet :roll:

Hi all,
The title says it all.......IT RUNS!!!!!!!!!
To most of you this prolly isn't a big deal but I bought this deuce a couple weeks ago not running. I tried to figure it out for myself and soon learned it was well beyond my experiences so I tried to find a mechanic that could...
Beautiful job!! :)
I need to restore my seats too, but just don't have the ambition at this time. Getting all the mechanical things fixed up first. Since I live in Arizona where the sun tends to destroy anything outside....Do fiberglass troop seats hold up better or would they get...

Hi all,
I think I found the problem today. Tommorrow i have a mechanic coming over to put the head back in so the timing is right. I was cleaning the head so it would be ready and found a needle and seat that was frozen up. Its called the fuel delivery valve so makes sense that if this is...
First of all, LOOKS GREAT!!!
Now a dumb question from a deuce newbie....What is a whistler? I've heard it a lot and am in the dark. Im tryin to learn though :)
Mark

Still havnt got her running but am still trying. Think I figured out what is wrong with IP finally, waiting for mechanic to come over and put fuel head back in tommorrow and I'll know. Fuel delivery needle valve was froze in place.
ANYWAY....... the reason for this thread. There...

HI again,
I ran a thread that explained the problem b4, had a lot of good feedback but nothing worked to fix it. Fuel gets to IP but nothing out to injectors. There is something wrong within the IP. I had a diesel mechanic look at it and he said the IP needs rebuilt. Here in Phoenix thats a...
