What you should have is this lifting bracket, like Frank described: This is what I did with a customer's Jeep that was missing the bracket. Pulled a front and rear head bolt. Hope the head gasket doesn't leak when I put it back together but it's a chance I had to take. EDIT: B2U added...

I think the biggest reason to have a functioning parking brake is for all the times you're actually using the truck. Backing up to a trailer by yourself? You'll get out of the truck a few times to see where you're at-you wanna' shut the truck off every single time? Eastern or TNJ (Eastern I...

That's a 1966-1967ish model I think. There's a thread somewhere around here which breaks down all the prefix's and what they mean.

The 30316 is a partial VIN. You're missing a 4 digit prefix. Go look on the drivers side framerail, near the pitman arm. You'll likely find a number there, like 0125-30316, 0225-30316, etc. Let us know what that is.

They absolutely work better; I'd call them a requirement. Every one of the NAPA 4419's I've used in the last 5 years has had them and that includes the recent Chinese ones and the older American made ones. I open every wheel cylinder up before I install it to verify it has the correct ones...

This is good advice. We rebuilt my buddy's deuce brake system in Sep. 2015 and by Sep. 2016, one of the new NAPA wheel cylinders was leaking.

They got 46 years of use out of that forklift.

Meeting is scheduled for the end of this week. :beer:

Valence, this thread is one of the best I've ever read on SS. Well done. What size and style rivets are the cab braces supposed to take? I have one I have to install in order to get shoulder belts in my truck. I have a brace by itself, no rivets or instructions. I've never seen the...

The rally has been over for a week and today is the first time I've had a chance to sit down and type all this out. I am really behind on work and I literally went back to work Sunday afternoon. I haven't even unloaded my deuce or gotten my mule back, which is still in the trailer. I want to...

I want to thank everyone who came as a vendor or as a buyer-I got a lot of stuff I needed (new windshields, M35A3 3point seatbelt system) and some stuff I wanted (the new cam style M105 landing gear, NOS, thanks John!), NOS Deuce winter grille cover (for those freezing 88 degree October days)...

Folks, where are the pics? This is an event with 140 trucks, 4 days of offroading, golf cart shenanigans, flamethrowers, etc. My excuse is that I was busy and I literally took one picture. I know some of you have to have hundreds of shots on your phones. Let''s see 'em!

Please stop posting pictures of closed cab CCKWs that will encourage me to do something dumb.

The best fuel economy your deuce will ever get!

1. TheStig is really upping the ante here with these super high quality videos. We're all gonna' have to step our game up. 2. I didn't take any pictures. 3. We do have a few leftover t-shirts and I will ship 'em...

Even though this is a closed thread, I wanted to add to it that we have a handful of leftover shirts, if anyone wants one of the best rally shirts evah: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?161101-A-few-leftover-16-Ga-Rally-t-shirts-for-sale-I-can-ship-these-Various-sizes

CARC wants a 1.8-2.2 tip but I have sprayed it all the way down to a 1.4.

I can manage that. Everyone, carry the discussion over to the multimedia thread: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?159708-Official-2016-Georgia-Rally-Multimedia-GMVR16-Thread Okay, there's a lot to write here. I make notes throughout the event, but there's always stuff and people I...

I saw this thing at the 2016 GMVR this weekend. This thread doesn't in any way show what all Profo did to it. It's insane. Thank you for giving my friends and I the 5 minute tour. It's amazing.

This might be the funniest exchange I've ever read here.
