    winch drive shaft

    I glanced at them last night and they appeared fine. I think it's the angle I shot the picture. Compared it to my other trucks last night and it looked the same. I don't think so but you will see it soon. :razz: I believe I am going to try and shift the winch over, per Gringeltaube's...

    What do your neighbors and other drivers think of your CUCV

    Threads like this come up about every 6 months. I just don't get it. We've had MV's over 6 years. Jeeps, CUCVs, Deuces, etc. I have had ONE bad experience in the entire time: There is a homeless guy who wanders around town who is obviously mentally ill who flipped me off while I was driving...

    winch drive shaft

    Ok, here are some better pictures. I think first I am going to try and shift the winch over. If that doesn't work, it's grinding time.

    winch drive shaft

    Ok, I am having the same issue. Truck: 1987 AMG USAF M35A2C. Not a gasser rebuilt as a multi, etc. Winch: Came off my '67 M35A2. I believe the driveshaft is the correct tapered multifuel driveshaft (the driveshaft is tapered to clear the bellhousing, not the steering box, correct?). Winch...

    Extended height M44 pedals

    So we all know that the brake and clutch pedals are adjustable in our M44 series trucks (right? :-P). My '87 A2C had really high pedals, I am only 5'10" and I could barely drive it on the way home. I went to adjust them yesterday, assuming they had been adjusted out all the way (as high as...

    Maryland MV owners are in trouble

    Yupp. You Maryland guys need to organize, pick a leader who has good people and mgmt. skills and build a coalition of like minded groups (ATHS, MVPA {rofl}, etc.) and either defeat it or get it changed/amended.

    Looking 4 my first deuce!

    We occasionally sell deuces but it is getting pretty difficult to find solid, privately owned deuces in that price range. There are some deuces on craigslist and one in particular that's cheap, if you have a way to transport it (I think it has no brakes). Here's an example of one of ours...

    Question about local zoning law in FL for Deuce Parking

    Looks like the code says it won't fly. If they say it will, better get it in writing and talk to an attorney. Make sure your (reputable) attorney says that their written guarantee holds legal water. Also, better have a legal fund, because at some point, if you find a way to squeak or sneak...

    PTO rebuild issues

    Good advice (for open seals). I always have to look twice at closed seals, like the deuce front axle inner (example: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/deuce/8460-front-axle-seals-boots-stepxstep-6.html#post952505).

    Deuce broken down, clutch will not engage HELP!

    Not now, obviously. Just thinking that in a pit like that, all sorts of stones/rocks/debris could have gotten into the bellhousing and broke a pressure plate finger. Curious what comes out.

    PTO rebuild issues

    I don't know how to describe it, but the lip of the seal face the direction of the liquid you are trying to keep from escaping. Perhaps someone here can describe it better than I can. I know how to install a seal looking at it, but not a clear way to describe it.
