I am no expert by any means but have you checked the CV Boots for any leaks or splits in the boots? I would think when turning it could be a CV joint..

Yeah mine's not accurate either with 395's on it but I passed by one of those "You are going this fast" cop boxes on the side of the road at 40mph and it said I was going 47. So I guess I am somewhere around 17% low on the guage.. PS: The truck looks great! .

Thanks ! I bet those horns sound nice!!:D Good luck with the paint job. Are you painting the rims as well? Here's a little trick I like, A piece of sheet metal or you can use poster board so you don't paint your tires! You can get right up to that hard to reach lip next to the tire.. I heard...

We need pics First!! nopics

Good to hear you had a good pickup. What did you tow it with? I picked up mine with my wife's Navigator, worked fine..

"Deuces Wild" for me but around the house I usually just refer to her as "the Deuce" as others do..

That was AWESOME!! ahh the dreaded 12 point turn.. Thought you were going to take out the barn for a second there. Congrats!! The truck looks pretty good for sitting that long..

Yeah I was thinking of a clear coat as well! Thanks!

That's Awesome crazywelder! I like taking mine to the local car show..

I say Flat Black.. but then again I am biased.. If you want to see some Flat black Deuce pics check out my album..

Like it ALLOT! Looks much better than the camo job. I used Rustoleum flat back but thinned with paint thinner instead of Acetone so I think that's what caused my "chalking".. Nice job!

Ah now I can see the video not sure why it wasn't coming up for me.. Wow the truck was really buried! Motor sounds good! Can't wait to see you drive it out!! .

Nice job, looks like it's brand new! You must be in heaven having it back on the road!

Yeah it's a fun truck and pretty reliable but not for a daily driver in my opinion.. PS: Unless you know someone who works on them, prepare to be your own mechanic! :beer:

Welcome! And a fine looking truck I may add. If you have the dual MC and Airpack you'll be happy and have a whole lot more piece of mind when braking! :beer:

Yeah I had a problem with that too. It was just too tight and then SNAP! I used a make your own gasket sealer, seemed to work out great! Good luck!

Seems like it would be much better in the snow storm than a Crown Vic..

Well I posted almost the exact same named thread, surprised it didn't come up if you searched for it.. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/deuce/77845-how-paint-your-rims-not-your-tires.html I just used a big piece of aluminum.[thumbzup] .. and less messy then grease..

I put the flags on the back and PRESTO! I am in my own parade. So far no one has bothered me and I usually get thumbs up from cops..

Best of luck with the pickup and ride back. Good to hear you are back home safe.. Thank you for your service..[thumbzup]
