    4x4 CUCV Preparations

    thanks Sarge. i have put a lot of work into it. The bed came about by accident really. My truck is a 1031 so it came with a utlity bed (contact maint.) I didn't really like that and had some M101a2's so I got to work. The bed was very easy to install on the truck. Lined up with the frame and...

    4x4 CUCV Preparations

    i also did a slight fender trim to get 37's to fit and not rub. I added a m101a2 bed to my m1031 and LOVE IT! Added an arctic camo paint job and called it done. I do have an offroad design "easy inch" for the front springs that I ordered for something else, that will be added when it dries out...

    Converting air to hydro

    Gimp, I would say leave the deuce alone. If it handles better then you will want to drive even faster. that is a viscious cycle. you already drive like a madman. Next you'll need a flux capacitor to go back in time.

    Clepto's Bobber

    two years ago when we had our little blizzard my bobber got plenty of use as well. We havn't had any signifigant weather here lately. I got to pull out a state trooper that had pulled me over in the bobber a couple days before. Made a friend that day. Me and one tow truck were the only ones...

    pto winch off 18 wheeler??

    should be easy enough to get it to work. hopefully the PTO input on the winch will be on the drivers side when installed. Then you can use a stock PTO adapter and maybe even adapt the stock driveshaft as well. It if is driven on the passenger side when installed it will be a bit harder and...

    Max Deuce Speed

    what fun is it having a truck that you let someone else tell you how to drive? would Ricky Bobby have gotten to the status of greatest driver of all time that way? No he wouldn't. And Remember, if your not first your last. WOOOOO!

    Max Deuce Speed

    don't know what all the hubbub is about bub. Followed a singles out deuce with 395's and a poor LDS running 63 this weekend. Owned by a member here. Never missed a lick. In the end it is your truck and here is my view---- Run it on the redline until something lets go, then replace it with an...

    m101 bed on a m1028??

    yes it has been done. By me for one. Search for 1031 with 101 bed. There was a pic of it on there as well. Also a pic in the thread "what have you done to your cucv". Works like a charm and is perfect dimentionally. Looks great too.

    m1008 increase horsepower

    increase horsepower? Yes. Cheap? No. the most cost effective way to get more ponies is to either add a turbo from a 6.5 engine or swap the engine for a gas motor or larger diesel engine.

    Best Gear shift knob

    only problem with the bugs, my wife would never get in the truck. She is deathly scared of spiders,scorpions and snakes. I like them though. There used to be a kit available that you could melt this stuff and make knobs, ashtrays and paperweights with all kinds of stuff in it. I think it was...

    Clepto's Bobber

    actually AAA will at least come and assist you. I called them to come tow my semi- tractor in michigan when it got stuck in my mother in laws back yard. came right out and yanked me free. smiled and left.

    16.00s On Stock Deuce Wheels

    I think this is topic is not even worth discussing after the initial answer of NO. The wheel is clearly not designed or reinforced for that much tire. Sometimes you have to give the best advice you can and let folks do what they are gonna do. If and when such a BS contraption fails (and...

    Paint By Numbers Camo

    pretty nifty i gotta say. Did you make a clear copy of the pattern to use in the projector or did you trace it onto some clear sheet to transfer? very creative and looks like it worked well. everywhere the projector won't get would be connect the dots. I like connect the dots. Don't color...

    Loud horns

    you know I see this getting way out of hand in my shop. what is the correspondence to the diameter of the horn to the sound? Or Db level? Heres what i envision. Smallest out of the four made from say 6" PVC then one 8" and so on. so that when air was applied it would sound like a cruise...
