Are you going to have a front winch? How will it be powered? That plays into this as well, since the stock winch is driven off a PTO on the drivers side of the tranny.

No, not really. Put a 12V alternator on it and replace the gauges with 12V civvy units, then replace all the light bulbs with 12V units. Sending units for oil and temp may need to be replaced. I wouldn't recommend that-if you're buying a vehicle in that condition, you're in an ideal place to...

Wow, your Jeep looks awesome.

Being rust free is 50% of what's important. The rest is: Lack of modifications to the tub: No tailgates cut in, no holes for roll bars, dumb stuff like that. Original 24V stuff. I like to install new harnesses in stuff that old, so a hacked up harness isn't the end of the world to me but if...

pa tracy, you rock man. Seriously, next time I see you, the Heineken is on me. Hey everybody, make sure to add if you participate in member assistance. This is something we did on the old maps and we never really got a chance to put it into action. Like everyone, I worry about the phone...

Is anyone else able to get into the temporary chat? On both my machines (home laptop, work desktop), it says my Java is out of date, but when I try to update to the newest version, it fails (both in firefox and IE).

1. OUTSTANDING TURNOUT! 2. Somebody's WWII Jeep is gorgeous. 3. Glad to see clintogf's wrecker getting to stretch it's legs :D 4. "Ugly Ranger" brought a tear to my eye. 5. Dad and I are coming down next year to help out. You can hold me to that. 6. Good on ya'll for your support of...

I believe the pto is on the passenger side of the 6453, more or less making the factory winch setup impossible. Short answer (as always): there are no shortcuts or cheaper way outs in life that are worth pursuing. Buy Tom's od kit and be done with it.

That's great news SC. Congratulations! :beer:

I meant do a search here on SS- Check these out: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/deuce/94670-inexpensive-yellow-head-lights.html http://www.steelsoldiers.com/deuce/12035-amber-headlights.html http://www.steelsoldiers.com/conversations/63130-source-mv-lamps.html...

As Kaiser said, not really feasible. However, there are 24V military yellow lights available. DO a search for the yellow lights and you'll be richly rewarded.

No, derrrr! He got tired of the reliability of deuces. *kenny, sitting quietly in the melting Florida sun, in January* "Man, these deuces just aren't a challenge anymore. They start every time I hit the button........... what I need is something that always challenges me.... like you never...

Sweet!

I haven't had any issues, but I sure wish they had a mobile version of their site. Make bidding on the run a lot easier!

I think you did pretty well. You can sell the bed and gear, buy a dropside and do a bed swap/upgrade all at once. Throw some green on it and :driver:

If it can make it to me, I can find a way to get it to Papabear's-I need an excuse to go down there and help them get their new truck floating. :D

If it helps, I can store it until 13SSGR if it makes it way to Atlanta/Athens.

I had a pm asking about my tow rig and how it was set up. The trailer is my buddy's 20' equipment trailer, 10K rating. 16' deck and 4' dovetail. The deuce has the typical Curt 14082 hitch, with a straight pintle mount. This sits the trailer with a couple inches of down angle, perfect for...
