I just climbed under my non-running deuce of the same year and make. It has both the springs but they are both broken. I think the smaller spring lebeled number four use to hook to that set screw. Is that true? I found a much larger and longer spring in my spring drawer and I am pretty certain I...

Does any one have a more detailed diagram than this? http://www.steelsoldiers.com/attachments/deuce/170143d1267493032-i-wanted-pick-your-brains-see-if-you-could-help-me-what-could-major-parking-brake.jpg I am trying to put this back together but I cannot make out what kinf od sring I am...

I was wondering how to do that myself.

Thanks man. I sure would like ot know the details of the biuld.

That is my way of thinking as well. I am trying to find a happy medium between the two.

That is a good tip. If I do not go with this 4x conversion idea I will have to try that out.

That is funny. I was thinking about doing that very same thing. Then when I was planning a trip to the woods I would slide the rear axle shafts back in.

I am just wondering if anyone here has converted a deuce to four wheel drive without making it shorter. If you have what kind of differences has it made? I am under the mindset that I want a deuce because I want a six wheel drive truck. But I have caught myself wondering how a deuce would do...

Thanks you two, that is good advice.

One of my problems is I am missing a spring. Now that I am out of school I am hoping to get this repair done very soon.

That is great advice. I never even thought of using feeling gauges. Thanks man!

Now that is a good idea. Do you have the biuld plans for that?

That it wild. I wonder how hard it would be to locate one today. I bet they would be tough to restore.

I think he is the one I dealt with. He is a real nice guy. If I need something else, I plan to call him.

We ended up going with Gulfway and it only cost $100 a year. That is more than PIP only.

We spoke to a few companies like that. They do not want you to enjoy your military vehicle.

I think I might be missing a spring. The assembly will relase but as I back up it hangs lose enough to grab the drum. A light tap with a hammer gets it to realse as well as simply pulling forward. It was only doing it as I tried to back up.

Not yet. I can only work on it on the weekends. This coming weekend I will pull the drum so I can clean that as well. Then I will reasemble it and see out it does.

Thanks man!

That souds like that might be my problem. There was only one spring up in the top area and the mustache spring. Where can I locate a diagram of where the srings are suppose to be?
