OK, so here I am gearing up for a nice 35 mile ride to work tomorrow as the guys want to see the Deuce. I am checking everything and notice a pretty good wet spot on the ground under the rear PTO which is not hooked up to anything. My Deuce used to be a fire truck so the rear PTO was used for...

So here I am again but now with my Master Cylinder rebuild. After my Airpack rebuild the brakes were allot better but I was loosing pressure in the pedal while it was being held down. If you are interested you can see the Airpack rebuild here...

So I finished the Airpack rebuild and the brakes do work.. Adjusted the rears so they are not dragging anymore. So now I slowly lose the pressure in the brake pedal if let's say I am going down a long hill. Even if I am sitting at a stop sign it slowly goes to the floor. The pedal itself...

So I got my first M105A2 Trailer today! Yeah! I purchased it from the same guy I bought my Deuce from. Great guy, suggested he sign up here on SS as he also has a deuce and could learn allot from this site as I have. Anyway back to the recovery. I towed it home 50 miles with my Navigator...

So here is my airpack rebuild. There have been other posts out there but I took allot of pics and thought I would post all the info I have learned in one place. I wanted to show it visually so you can actually see the parts in it. I have learned so much on this site it’s time for me to give...

So I finally got around to changing my fuel filters and took off the primary. Looked inside the canister...nothing... looked back up at the truck...nothing.. No filter in sight.. So I went to the other two filters and thank God they were there. The secondary looked like it was sitting at the...

So I found this laying around the garage and thought it may fit that hole on the side of the engine. Walked over and it fit.. Like a Gloovveeaa!! So thought I would paint it the same as the truck and see what it looks like. I could mount it with just a bead of silicone, but just not sure if...

OK so I found this brake line spitting out fluid and air as had my brakes lock up this weekend. I also have a major leak in the front brake hose that I am working on to fix. My question is, is this supposed to be connected into the MC in the hole I stuck it in as in pic #2? It was hissing out...

Under my deuce yesterday working on the brakes when I looked at the tranny and noticed this hole where is looks like a screw is supposed to be.. Is this normal? Doesn't look it to me..

Just saw this episode last night.. pretty cool. Love the size of that thing! Figured someone else would beat me to posting the pics..:D

Wouldn't it be cool if every member was required to enter their zip code so that you could see where everyone was in relation to each other and not just have it as a voluntary thing? Then if you were organizing a rally you could PM everyone within a X Mile radius of the rally and possibly get...

OK, so I am still technically a newbie to having a MV. So after reading allot of posts I decided to read some of the TM's to familiarize myself with my new truck.. I am sure glad I read the PSMultifuelOperators.pdf which is a great one for learning about the deuce. Specifically I am glad I...

So I wasn't driving around at night but recently I noticed my headlights were out when the switch was on and truck was running. I had a friend watch as I jiggled the switch back and forth a little and they went back on.. That worked for a little while but now they are out completely. I assume...

So I thought I would post some pics of my Deuce since it has gone through so many changes along the way. Originally it was a fire truck, the pic is not the actual vehicle but what it used to look like. It was bobbed and painted army green. Then I got it and painted it flat black and upgraded...

Just wanted to share my new trick for painting rims.. I had in the past used masking tape or drop cloths tucked between the tire and rim and then it hit me yesterday.. Just use a piece of thin aluminum or flashing and curve it to the shape of the rim and put in-between the rim and the tire...

Is there an aftermarket Brake Shoe for a Deuce that I can pickup at a NAPA or other auto part store? I burnt them up a bit on the ride home as they were sticking on the highway, since all 4 wheels were smoking I am guessing I will have to replace the shoes.. I was hoping to find something...

So I am a new Deuce owner and just got my first deuce last Wed.. The compromise with the wifey was to paint it flat black or not get it at all.. Well I wanted to go with a camo paint job but no luck.. Anyway here are some before and after pics.. She used to be a fire truck so she only has 1,300...
