I need help from y'all. My deuce is once again my daily driver and I'm tired of my wipers dancing all over the windshield as I drive. I want to convert to electric wipers. What is the best way to do this? And what is the cheap way that still works? I live in Florida now so functional wipers are...

I'm finally getting around to power steering on my Deuce. I made the reservoir out of .040 stainless steel and a few left over fittings. I TIG welded it all with stainless rod and in an argon chamber. It came out pretty well. Now to gather all the other parts.

So I use my truck as my daily driver and in the tree business. We have a field that we park the trucks in along with all the equipment. It's been raining a lot in Ga lately so the field was pretty wet. I needed the dup trailer the other day so I drove across the field to get it. No problem. 2...

I am in a pickle. My winch is from a gasser deuce. My shaft is at high angle driveline to get remade. I need the total length. And the shaft diameter. I know it's smaller for the multi fuel than the gasser. Thanks.

Yesterday while driving to a tree job I started getting gassed out of the cab. The diesel fumes were so bad my eyes were watering and my nose was itching. The job site was about an 8 th of a mile away so I drove there. Immediately opened the side panel only to see the whole firewall and side of...

I have a problem with my transmission. When I fill it up to the rim of the fill port, for the next few hundred miles it pukes 90wt when I stop. It all drains out of the hole in the clutch cover. It leaks until it's about 1 to 1 1/2 inches below the fill port. It has been doing this for about a...

Today was a great day at work. We got to the job site in my buddies Deuce, shut it down and noticed a massive oil leak. The fitting under the injection pump for the oil supply was cracked. So I called my son to grab some tools and my spare pump and bring it all to me. Now getting that fitting...

Long about January of this year I got an A/C kit from a fellow steelsoldiers member just north of Vegas and I still lived in San Diego. Well I am finally done with the install in Macon Ga. It just took a little while to get it all in and working. I had the heater in, plumbed, wired and...

So there is nothing wrong with my bobbed Deuce's motor. It has 40,000 miles on it and I put 37,000 of those miles on it. But I've got this cat 3208 with an Allison hooked to it. I want to swap in the Cat. Am I crazy. The cat has 36,000 miles on it. Its a 250 hp version. I tow a lot and daily...

I was driving around Macon today and found this. Can y'all tell me what it is and if it is worth the $5200.00 asking price. The cable on the crane is broke and the seats are completely rotted down to the bare metal and springs. Thanks.

I have gone through the trouble shooting steps so many times I can't see straight anymore. So I'm here to ask for some help. I have a Deuce that has a charging issue. I am getting 23 VDC at the exciter wire. 23VDC at the batteries. But 0 VDC at the alternator out put terminal. I have changed to...

I am starting a hauling service to haul my brothers Ice plants around as he sells them. If any one needs stuff moved from as big as a Deuce to small enough to fit in a truck bed let me know. I am going to be leaving Lake City Fl on the 17 th of April and will be heading to Baton Rouge La to...

Yesterday I drug another Deuce into the driveway. It has been sitting in a guys yard for a year and a half with a busted cam shaft. He disassembled most of the motor with the intent to scrap it and put a Cummins in the truck. He ran out of funds though so I am going to replace the Cam and put...

On my cross country move the fuel line running from the fuel filters to the injection pump blew. I sleeved it with some rubber hose and went on my way. After a couple miles I noticed she was down on power and wasn't able to pull more than 900 EGT and 40 to 45 miles an hour on flat land. I...

I have a bunch of new in the bottle Ford Orange Anti Freeze designed for the 6.0 Powerstroke diesel. I need to flush the coolant out of the Deuce and install the new heater. Do y'all think the Gold anti freeze is a good match for the Deuce system or should I just go buy the normal green anti freeze?
