Many of the newer Deuces do not have grease fittings on the Pintle Hitch. I added one to mine several years ago. I posted the project.

I'm really glad your back ! Since several people have asked what happened I'll give a short synopsis here. I had kidney stones removed last year. After a few months I started to get a little sick. Then about five months ago I really got sick. Went to the doctor and found out I had "mersa" in my...

I will be in your "neck of the woods" this weekend. Going to my brothers grandsons wedding. Yes I'm getting old !

Yes, but I'm not posting them here right now. Might post on YouTube. We'll see.

Hey Ahab your back ! I've been off for awhile due to sickness, and just saw this new post. Glad your back, missed you !

The name of the shop is "Drive Lines Northwest" in Seattle, WA.

If the spring is broken then what would hold the plunger down against the "Tappet" ? You do realize that spring is just like a valve spring on an engine head. If it is broken then it just flops around. Nothing there to "hold" it against the valve seat. Same thing here. That plunger spring is...

If you look at the cable you will see what looks like grooves or teeth cut into the rod. They basically "ratchet" against the collar which is on the dash. What you normally have to do to "release" the rod is to give it a slight "twist" and then it slides back in. That is to release the "teeth"...

The old connecting rod bolts are prone to failure. There is a 12 point bolt out there that replaces it. Several companies sell them. They are pretty pricy now though. Just look up "Hercules LDT 465" rod bolts.

It only takes about 10 years for the Purple DOT5 fluid to turn amber/clear. It still works fine though. I've had some military surplus fluid that was already amber when I got it. Used it and it's still working in one of my cars today.

I wrote "control valve" instead of "sleave" in my last post. I corrected it. My bad.

Just like the others said you would have the ability to steer, "but" it would be extremely difficult as the gearing ratio on a power steering gear compared to a manual gear is much higher "meaning faster turning". On most power steering gears the "stop to stop" ratio is around 2.5:1 to 3:1 ...

The spring broke due to the full throttle. The springs function is to "pull" the plunger down against the cam roller. If the plunger is not held tight to the cam then it cannot build up fuel pressure. It would just "float" and do nothing. No pressure, no run. The usual cause of a full throttle...

Don't use it unless you have a centrifuge to clean it up. The small micro bits of metal will tear-up your injection pump.

No they where not. This kit did not have the correct size of the special "wheel" seals and the "check valves" were missing(cannot remember their proper name right now). Also the seals themselves where just rubber, not "EPDM" seals like our Air force Deuces have installed in them. Mailed it back...

I knew that didn't sound right ! I should have said "EPDM" seals. I've been on this stupid "30/10" diet (loose 30Ibs in 10 weeks) for three weeks now and my mind has gotten fuzzy lately. No fats at all. I know your suppose to have natural fats to keep your brain working properly and "olive oil"...

It's always considered best to use two drive-shafts when they get near the max length. When I worked at IHC, one of my jobs was installing the differentials on the "Sliders" (cab and frame and engine only) . Some wanted tandem axles. Some wanted shorter frames and single axles. Some wanted long...

Well considering I've never seen a price on any of their products for several years now, it does make one go "hummmm" .

I ordered some AFC 50 corrosion treatment just now based on your recommendation. Thanks Tinstar !
