To the best of my knowledge, there are NONE made that are DOT legal for use other than off-road use only. Have any sort of incident on public roads and the non-DOT rating is noticed, and you could be in very big trouble. Yes, there are many that will work. Never heard of anyone getting in...

Still waiting for pictures of a perminately installed rear winch on a deuce. Any one done this yet? And still have the pintle hitch? I expected to have completed this by now, but have had some other things come up the last few months.

It is not the initial price of a deuce (either A2 or A3), it is the total cost of ownership. Which, can be rather high.

You mean there is somewhere other than the glove compartment where I'm supposed to put that thing? It stays on top of my NC fuel stickers.

As long as.you went with the larger 7.3 PowerSmoke, and not.it's wimpy replacement...

I was successful getting mine titled, after a couple.days of trying. I had to be inspected.by the DMV auto fraud department in Fayetteville, and took a couple of hours. Having them check out this site was a.big help. All in all, they were great people to deal with, and they just loved...

That is not true in North Carolina. Any truck that has more than two axles is.subject to getting pulled over by the DOT enforcement State Patrol. If you have a modified vehicle, I.e. bobbed deuce, or tires/wheels without the proper DOT certification, are subject to.some pretty hefty fines. In...

You hit it dead on. None of them (NG), are ever properly trained for this type of mission. All they are usually told is that these vehicles will go ANYWHERE. Which we older guys know is so not true. They see the videos of that old deuce completely submerged with the driver wearing full scuba...

Never towed the 101, just the 105. The A3 did not like it with the cover on. Mileage and performance were really down. If you have to tow it with cover, it must be very tight, or it will beat its self.to pieces in just a couple hundred miles. UV and Wind will ruin your cover, and their...

If all else fails, I make 2-3 trips from Fayetteville, NC to Latham, NY each year. This is usually July-August and then December and/or January-February. This year December is not happening, but January-February is still on.

I would say that these trucks will have serious electrical problems, but not likely right away. That usually takes a.while to manifest. Idiots? I think not, just could have used better judgment. I'm pretty shure they will tackle that situation different the next time. The important thing...

Have you tried Berg tire in Fayetteville, NC? I was in their yard and warehouse yesterday and they had some great tires. Look for them on the Net.

That does not sound right. Mine goes the same speed on the flat, up hill, and down hill. (unladen)

Sounds like your light may be bad. It should light up when low air pressure is buzzing.

How about on an A3 with the air assist steering, or better yet, hydro assist? Would a front ARB locker be ok then?

For the best bang for the.buck, you are absolutely correct. However, all reports that I have seen from all of those who have done this, the Transyn does significantly lower the operating temp of the trans. That said, most Allison dealers will do their best to.dissuade you from going with...

Oh, the Baldwin from Erick include a new O-ring for the pickup and a new pan gasket. FYI

Ok, just looked at one of the Baldwin filters I got from Erick. It is a metal 6.5"x11.75" double walled enclosure about 3/8" thick that is pressed with wavy surfaces much like a gold sluce. (Almost like corigated). It does indeed have a screen at the pickup orifice. There is no fiber filter...

No, I think that I remember it to be much more.than that. Will try to find one still in the box.in the garage.

Get that motor oil out of that trans as soon as possible. However, with that said, it is prudent to do several flush and fills. Be shure to drop the pan and change the filter too. The Dextron will liberate all sorts of junk left from the motor oil. So, if you just change the fluid without...
