Full PM done today, everything went well OE filter canisters still in good working order, changed a leaky fuel supply line from the primary to the pump. Belts tightened, checked many bolts and clamps on motor, all OK. Greased entire truck, used 3 tubes. Acquired some "period perfect" grease...

Hello everyone I have been very quiet for a long time now I have just been busy with life as we all are and have forgotten about SS. But I am going to try and be on here alot more often because it's time to get some of the issues with truck under control and fixed. Short recap of what I've...

Hey guys. I'm getting in here to let you all know I can't come for the trip. I hope you all have a great time but i have to be real with myself and say that I'm not comfortable with the state of my truck to drive that far. As I said above, it needs tires, need to fix the suspension ( 4 of 6 of...

Hey guys I know I've been quiet sorry Luke just busy with work. We're just cranking everyday and I get home and Im shot. I've been thinking and going over my deuce and I don't know if I can make it to rausch Creek. Like my truck needs some attention. Runs great but I have a suspension issue that...

Hey Luke sounds like a plan man. Only issues I have with my truck right now is need 2 tires on 2nd axle right side, and my air horn stopped working. Otherwise she's running tip top. Also gonna have to get a bunch of supplies together.

I think I may just head out there as well. Had my truck for 3 years now, and have never left long island with it. Bought it with 3,000 miles has 20,000 now. I see no issues with driving this truck to rausch Creek and back. Definitely need to move up a few spares. Where you guys coming from? From...

Good morning Welder and Big Tom. Thanks for the heads up guys. So I was given incorrect information and I've been chasing a ghost this whole time. So that's it then. Yeah the in tank pump kicked the bucket and a few guys said it's not needed so I pulled it out of the tank and put the housing...

Oh. To answer your questions quickly; I connected my test fuel line to the bottom of the booster pump "fuel inlet" with all other lines hooked up as they should be. There are 2 ports facing 6 o clock position on the booster pump my test line Is on the one towards the front of the motor. That is...

Hey rusty, thanks for the info. It's 2:45 am here just got back with the wifey from a comedy show. We are shot and going to sleep. I will try to take out the booster pump tomorrow, I am going to have to pull the steering gear and engine mounts, correct? Have a good night. Will be back on in the am

Lol. I know the in tank pump is bad, I pulled it out of the tank it failed internally. I was told by a few guys I know that we're mechanics during the Vietnam era that told me the lift pump in the tank is not required and it only comes on cold weather issued trucks. One of them even has a deuce...

Nooooo no way. A buddy of mine has 600 9x20s and I have a barter system with him, I fix his trucks, he gives me tires

Oof. 11x20s gonna be a bit harder to get that split ring on there. Tough enough by myself

Supposedly there is an electric motor conversion kit, but personally I like keeping everything original as much as I can. I don't want the spin on filter conversion, I'm keeping the wipers air operated, never gonna Bob it, and never gonna use an other tire than 9x20 NDCCs

My truck has a plastic POS that never worked, the case was split and air was leaking so I had to cap off the line to the pass wiper. Driver side works like new, and it's the metal TRICO one. I took the plastic one apart and that's what he's I found the crack. I've seen rebuild kits online for...

Hey guys, is this an issue with A2's? My fuel tank is original and I drained it recently, bottom is beautiful not a speck of rust, tiny but of sludge I wiped out

I've ordered one and will install when it comes. Thanks

Wow it's been a while... Haven't posted in maybe a year or so, but want to say thank you to all you amazing people on here, SS has helped me so much with my deuce. This is by far the best truck I've ever owned. The deuce has become my daily driver. I have a Chevy pickup but haven't driven it in...

Threw 2 31M batteries in it. Starts great now.

When the parking brake dos work, it had something like that. There is a chain bolted to the floor between your legs and another to the body under the b pillar. I appreciate your input, I started the thread because a lot of people told me that a parking brake on the driveline won't stop the truck...
