You got a pic of this thing. I might make it worth your while; we're in a serious war with the feral hogs in this state.

Aha! I thought it looked pretty beefy for a flagpole holder.

Can anyone tell me what this thing is on my Deuce that I'm pointing the wrench at? Some kind of clamp for a flag?

test on clamp next to stack.

The place where I got my work done in San Antonio is called Diesel Injection. They have a web site: dieselinjection.com. My post above was not intended to knock Biodiesel at all; rather to just post on some interesting facets of it's properties. The use of the word "emulsified" was my...

I got a real lecture over in San Antonio from a great (but expensive) shop when I had my injector pump rebuilt, concerning the problems with 'non petroleum' diesel fuel, such as biodesel. I am no chemist, but the info was not good for biodesel. In a nutshell, and this all according to the...

Anybody use those big 1" impacts off a bottle of CO2?

Do you pick up any MPH when you go to 1100 X 20? Am I correct to verify that you CAN run 1100 X 20s on the stock rims in a dual configuration on the rear?

I'm going to start PM'n you more often.

You need to search for any decal, engine compartment, dash, or otherwise and make sure your truck was not converted by the military over to DOT5. If you find such a decal, then it was converted to DOT5, and you should use same. The two are not compatible. DOT3 will absorb moisture; DOT5 will...

Should read 'dyed' in third line.

I went ahead and did it yesterday, on Sunday. Kind of a dirty experience but got it done. Pedal pressure is slightly better. I figured out that I had air in the left rear rear. Was just a bubble and found the bleeder fitting to be too loose which is probably what caused it. All is well now...

I started with an international postal delivery vehicle pulling people out of the mud in east Texas, and that was in 8th grade. Then came an MB 45 jeep. By this time, I was Joe Dirt. Then a CJ-2A. Then a ford Industrial loader (gas); then a Dodge dually with hopped up engine; now a deuce...

Never took it as a deterrent, sir. Glad I got this post going. Man O' Man, I can't wait to start hoisting things once I find one......

Wreckerman--I was hoping you would chime in. That is extremely useful info to me. I thank you for the details. I'm developing my 'motorpool' (which ain't nothing like yours), but the allure of one of these wreckers is just.....addictive. And to be brief, I know about being careful what you...

I can figure out what the insurance runs, but what is the cost of state and federal DOT registration? This is exactly the type of stuff I'm trying to factor before I even get my hopes up of buying one of these. Texas has a "machinery" plate, for trucks liker water well service trucks, etc...

Am thinking seriously about buying a 5 ton wrecker. To those that have one, is insurance expensive? My use will be for farming/ranching. I have no intention of hauling cars or anything with it. Any landmines to watch out for in buying/owning one off the top of your head?

Man, after reading that Amsoil sure looked like it came out ahead. Makes me want to get the royal purple out of my tow dually.

Do I use rubbing alcohol or denatured alcohol to flush?

The State of Texas will not 'jump' transfer the title to the thing to you without first the seller titling the vehicle in his name. That is not a bad looking truck, by the way. If the seller has a bill of sale, he must first title in his name, which could cost a couple of bills (medium), and...
