Awsome!Did a trail run myself w/my deuce to McKenna,Wa for parts to Brad Milne's deuce haven.Good run.No problems,except for my R front blowing up on my return to the Islands.No worries,had the tools and 4 spares I bought from Brad.I was back on the road in a 1/2 HR.

Hello Jonathan.Welcome to SteelSoldiers.As stated this site is full of good folks and great info.Enjoy!

I was recently told that G.L. is a foriegn owned corp. out of France.Don't no if it's true though,but it stands to reasonlike many other services the Gov. has out-sourced.I have only used GSA recently and got lucky in buying a "gem" sight unseen.An 81' wildland fire deuce,garaged,10k...

A chick,well maybe,but a"Cougar" he should have no problem!

When I return I will next I will get some pics.....and then figure out how to upload.Pardon me but I'm still in training here.

Opps!Yes,Brad it is.Sorry I forgot his to put his name in there.Nice guy,has good stories and lots of info.I will be back for more.

Heads Up!A formerly good source for trucks and parts is having to shut down here in the PNW.He still has lots of stuff that has to go from running complete 5 ton's to early Deuces.and NOS.Many trucks and parts have been:sad: cut and gone to the scrapper because he's under the gun from the local...

I just learned about this techique from an old warhorse mech near FT Lewis,Wa yesterday.He stated the same things as Westech;dont' allow that droopscrew to rotate and or drop!Also,he and made task specific wrench for that job by grinding down a wrench to fit.Thanks for this post guys.Good info.

Yes,it looks pretty straight for it's vintage and the price is'nt unreasonable for the fact it even runs.Sorry I didn't post a link to that other truck,I'm still learning how to do stuff.

On the B-Ham Craigslist there's a 67' 5 ton,but he wants to much for it IMHO.

Hmmm...I might.But I would have to get the ok from the the "War Deparment"

My avatar is a 54' REO OA331.It has only 22K miles on it.Runs like a champ.It was a V-18A/MTQ truck before it was coverted to a wildland fire tender.

WOW!Good lookin' truck!

Bring it on Stan!Could you bring some fries w/gravy too?Hey Sangamon,have you considerd joining up at the PNW rally.It would be really cool to see that rig up close and personal

After reading this about purchasing from GL I feel lucky.I recently bought a 81'AMG from GSA and it was easy breezy.Even got my SP97 form in less than a week.So is it only older deuces that have radium gauges or in all of them?

Yup,I'm in.Good brakes are paramount!

As I am a newbie to PNW rally, is there a paticular etiqette similar to SS website that should be followed?

yeah,the chrome stack is a little to "street" for me.

Has anyone heard or spicing up you diesel with some gasoline?Like say a gallon of gas to 49 gls of diesel?Or is that just crazy.

Copy that jesugatos.Thanks for the info.Dave.
