    converting 24v truck to 12v trailer

    (warning: long post...) Hi, I don't mean to resurrect an old thread, but at the same time I don't want to start a new thread for the same subject. I have also been searching and reading up on being able to pull a civy trailer with an A3 Deuce. I have read the cheapest way is to change the 12v...

    M35A3 - Trans Fluid Flush Question & other Filter Maintenance

    Just posted a few more updates to the filter list in my OP (Original Post). I found the Air Filter Number and the Air Drier Kit Numbers. If anyone reads the A3 Filter List, and finds that I have forgotten a filter, please post a reply. Thanks!

    M35A3 - Trans Fluid Flush Question & other Filter Maintenance

    Rustygears stated in another thread that the Napa Internal Transmission # was ATP14959. So far this has been the only part number that I have found the internal transmission filter. Is that the correct # or ??? Do you have an Allison or other Brand #? Here is the SS thread in which I found...

    Deuce Insurance Prices - How much do you pay?

    Your questions is right on subject, and I'm looking forward to seeing if anyone has an answer for this. I'm going put my 2cents in, on what little I have read and heard so far. I believe under a "regular" insurance policy, and not a "collector" policy, a deuce will be classified by most...

    M35A3 - Trans Fluid Flush Question & other Filter Maintenance

    Hey MooresM35A2, I agree with you! I would rather pay a few more $ for a good filter, than to just get by with a cheap one. I'm buying all Cats filters. Do you happen to know if CAT makes Air filters? Or do they use another company? I've looked all through the pdf TM's (i really need paper...

    Hope you refilled your transmission before you drove it :lol:rofl:lol: :whistle: j/k! Hummm... Have to look into the "transmission vent" info, as I haven't read anything about that yet. Have to find the info and be sure to check that while I'm at it. Thanks for the Tip [thumbzup] And I'm...

    M35A3 - Trans Fluid Flush Question & other Filter Maintenance

    A Push Pull pump would be a handy thing to have to move the fluid from the bucket to the funnel. Thanks for the Tip! Adding that to my "stuff to get" list :)

    M35A3 - Trans Fluid Flush Question & other Filter Maintenance

    Yes You Are 100% correct! The truck does have to be driven some between flushes to make sure that all the oil is being circulated into the system and not trapped somewhere in the transmission. Thanks for the tip reminder on the funnel, have to write that down on my "stuff to pickup" list. If I...

    M35A3 - Trans Fluid Flush Question & other Filter Maintenance

    Hi Rusty! Instead of just draining the fluid, which basically only takes about half of your trans fluid at a time. One type of the Transmission Flushing Machines, requires that you take apart a connection on one of your cooling lines, and you connect two hoses to that line, one for in and one...

    M35A3 - Trans Fluid Flush Question & other Filter Maintenance

    That is what I have read many people saying as to the reason why they are changing the fluid to over. Every post and comment I've seen has all been stating good improvements, so thats why I decided to do the same. Thanks for the personal experience review Steve! [thumbzup]

    M35A3 - Trans Fluid Flush Question & other Filter Maintenance

    Thanks for the info, that gives me a better idea of on the transmission. And I'll remember the tips on the fuel filter too. Have to get a good strap wrench, as I don't think I have one at the moment, or at least one that works. I'll also take a look and clean the check valve, didn't know about...

    M35A3 - Trans Fluid Flush Question & other Filter Maintenance

    Hi... Its me again. Ok, I am planning on doing a full service tune up and maintenance work to the A3, once I get it here. I am purchasing two of all the filters, one to put on the truck and one to keep as a spare. Since I have always been one to use the best filters for any vehicle I have...

    Deuce Insurance Prices - How much do you pay?

    Well, so far I have either gotten "We don't insure that type of vehicle" or "...We can insure it, but only for use in parades or meets..." or they took all the info and just haven't gotten back to me, but maybe I'll here from those couple tomorrow. I noticed that there seems to be a lot...

    Deuce Insurance Prices - How much do you pay?

    Hi All! I had seen a couple posts scattered here and there about insurance. But I thought I would start a thread just about Insurance for the Deuce. One thing this will do, is get everyone better informed. Who knows, you may be paying way to much $$$'s for your insurance, and someone may...
