    Tan over Green CARC

    My truck is green CARC, then Tan CARC, then Tan Latex paint (touch-ups, looks great, cheap!) Lots of paint...doubt it will ever rust.

    LDS-465-1A Oil Pressure

    I get the same on my LDS-equipped deuce as NDT states above. This is a low-mileage motor as well, so it's still pretty tight and holds pressure well.

    Are all Deuces Multifuel?

    Yes, there was a gasoline engine...the REO/Continental OA331 inline 6-cylinder engine was originally in the first runs of those trucks. The Military swapped out many for the LD-427 Multifuel engine, and then again for the LD-465 and later LDT-465 engines. There are not as many "gasser" M-35s...

    Welcome to SS ATC! There's a throttle lever on the left of the dash....pull that out a notch or two. Please download, read, and understand the -10 manual for the deuces. That will answer your other question and many others you haven't asked yet. :) Please post those pics soon...we'd all love...

    M-29 Weasel

    I'm assuming they will need a complete rebuild. As you can see from the pics, there's a pallet of grousers that comes with it (extras). I can only assume there was a reason it comes with extras.... There are several rebuild options...and some complete new track solutions out there, so I'm not...

    Deuce vs snowpile

    Very cool! Fun stuff... I did that in my jeep in my work parking lot a few years ago. Nice and slow, get out and take a pic, etc. Fun. Just then a cop pulled up and threatened me with a reckless driving ticket...WTF? It was on private property. He told me to go....so I got in the jeep...

    Used and Abused

    Looks like fun. One thing about the deuces...if there is a bottom, they will find it. This can be a good thing if the bottom is not too far down....or a bad thing if the bottom is about 15 feet. :o Hope you have a good pressure washer. :)

    locking diffs on a deuce?

    Solargizer?

    This topic has been gone over a bunch of times. I think a quick search for "Solargizer" will quickly answer your question....and maybe give you a bit more info on these devices than you initially asked for...

    Weasel forum under Armored Vehicles?

    Can we get a forum created under "Armored Vehicles" for the Weasels? T-24, T-15, M-29, M-29C could go there. Just a suggestion....

    10 ton in action

    Wow...just..wow. Wish there was more focus on the truck...but oh well, that's not what the story was bout.

    Pulled out 2 semi's, another snowy day.

    Sweet! And you did all of that with your "10K lbs" winch (wink wink). Try that with a 3/8" cable electric winch. :D Hoo-rah!
