    Sudden shutdown - cause?

    Be prepared to start changing filters like crazy if you put bio-diesel in your truck. After 3 sets or so you should be good.....thats how much crap is going to come off the inside of the tank/lines.

    Alcohol evaporator needed ?

    I don't have an evaporator installed on my deuce and I've never had issues with it up here. I also have not seen an evaporator kit installed on the reserve unit vehicles up here either.

    Any tips on removing upper torque rods?

    The propane torch won't be able to get it hot enough due to the amount of metal you're trying to heat. Acetelyne torch is about the only thing that will get hot enough. I doubt a MAPP gas torch will even get hot enough.

    CD/AM FM radio player

    I use my iPod and noise cancelling ear buds. The buds basically act as ear plugs when no music is playing through them and then I turn on the music just loud enough to hear it over the rest of the background. I can still hear the sounds of the truck (although muffled) just in case something...

    Poltergeist???? Sounds like an issue not matter what as you should not be having voltage surges.

    Building fence with the Deuce

    Only thing I can figure is that I have gotten a bad batch of seals plus a little overfill. I've checked the axle vent and it is functioning properly.

    Building fence with the Deuce

    The JD isn't by choice, typically we are a IH family. About 10 years ago my Gpa was taking the IH 1086 to the tire shop to get a tire worked on and got rear-ended by a BNSF truck passing him in a no passing zone as he was turning into the place. Threw the tractor down the road about 50 feet...

    Building fence with the Deuce

    Thanks, it is a beautiful area for farming. Rolling hills and river valleys. Basically all of the ground you saw is owned by my family, about 700 acres total at the moment.

    Building fence with the Deuce

    One other thing to mention is that my Gma couldn't figure out why I wanted a truck that big. Keep in mind she is getting dimentia and alzheimer's so she is having trouble comprehending things. What she didn't realize is that she was talking about my M105A2 trailer sitting in the shed, not the...

    Building fence with the Deuce

    That happens when you have severals miles of gravel roads to drive on to get back to the farm. The farm is at the end of a lane out in the middle of nowhere. The road going back to it looks like it ends about half way back so a lot of people don't even know it exists which is nice. Yep...

    Forgot to mention for those of you who wanted to know about my winch I didn't get a chance to test it out. I'll get there and put up a thread about it once I prove it is working as wanted.

    Building fence with the Deuce

    Been gone off the site for a couple of weeks. Was down at the family farm tearing out and rebuilding about 1-1/4 miles of barb-wire fence. Of course I used the deuce as my pack mule which it did without complaint. So here's the story followed by pictures: Showed up to get the deuce out of the...
