Home made evap. Here is my solution. This is obviously an intake setup evaporator. 1 nalgene bottle, some clear tubing, and some brass fittings. And a gallon of GUNK air brake fluid. Seems to be working. C

Ernie, if you're running bearings top and bottom in the knuckles, and you used some "Low Temp" grease to pack the knuckles, I think you might start elsewhere... First, the 80-90 in your steering box is thicker than peanut butter at -37 F. You might replace it with some synthetic 80-90 for a...

I drilled and tapped the non-threaded cover for the other sender. A little pipe thread sealant and all is well. :) C

That is a pretty sweet deuce! rofl I put a good 1000 miles on my deuce before I got to flipping the hubs. One of the rear inner bearings was all rusty and nasty when I took things apart... It wouldn't have finished the next 300 mile trip for sure... Just got lucky with checking it I...

I couldn't find any alcohol evap kits for cheap, so I made one. It seems to work fine. You need: 1 Nalgene bottle. 2 1/8x1/8" nipple to pipe fittings. 1 bulkhead 1/8" nipple to nipple fitting. About 3' of clear vinyl tubing. Drill two holes in the cap of the bottle, tap one for 1/8"...

Nice work. I see it's sitting on a nice black and yellow HF jack in some of the pics... You must be a fan of the Harbs too. :) FWIW, I think the two 5/8" pins are plenty strong, thought they probably allow it to flop around some. I have a 8000lb Warn on a multi-mount, and it just...

Hauled the deuce up to the UP yesterday. The last 50 miles it was snowing and blowing pretty good, with single digit temps... Took a few pics when I got to the shop. Thought you might all find them interesting... Note that the last 20 miles were mostly unplowed, with about 6" of fresh...

I am really jealous of those plastic battery boxes... My rusty metal box is killing me, and of course, nobody has a line on any cheap plastic boxes... Mine will spend some time getting to know the sandblaster this summer... :) C

Hey, I remember that truck from when I worked at KRC when I was at Michigan Tech. Where did it finally get auctioned off?? I think it wasn't there when I graduated, about 1997, but it might have been... I remember the big yellow trailer. And a red PowerWagon with deuce axles under it...

I would think it possible that during development back in '63, the Multi may have been running the gasser muffler and side exit exhaust... Didn't all the early multi deuces come with side exhaust?? Most of the deuces I've seen have a torched hole in the fender where the stack is... Seems...

Mmmm. Cookies. All this thinking about clutching makes my left knee hurt, but I just ate three chocolate chip cookies myself and I'm feeling much better about it now! :) C

So, you've been plowing with this setup for 11 years, drawing significant amounts of 12V off the first battery?? Do you rotate them often, or put that battery on the charger often?? Everyone seems to think that'll lead to undercharging the batt with the draw. If you're not having issues...

trippo on the rotted tube. Mine was rotted on the outside of the tank not inside, but it didn't like drawing down much below 3/4 tank... I fixed it with a wire brush and some JB Weld. Hey, I was in college... A new part was way too expensive for me!! :) If it's rotted inside, you might...

Heh heh heh... I like you winch/plow setup. ATV plows use a winch like that, but electric... Button up, button down... ez... Using a PTO winch seems like it would be more involved, that's what I was asking... So plow to a stop, clutch in, shift to N, shift pto to FWD, clutch out to...

I flat towed my wranger behind my ZR2 Sonoma, which was a 4500lb truck towing a 3600lb jeep. I had to be careful turning, and stopping quickly was out of the question, with the rear axle going into ABS and the front axle not even close to locking the tires. Forget the S10, you'll die trying...

So, it looks like that plow uses the truck winch for raising and lowering... I don't know how the M37 winch works, but I thought it was PTO... Isn't that a little slow doing all the shifting to not only run the truck back and forth, but to run the winch in and out between direction...

Hey, I was pretty sure I knew where your 135 was, and it's still there... Along M28 near Brimley. There was an older gentleman who lived there and ran a gunshop, but nobody seems to be there anymore. I hope he isn't also deceased... Someone needs to rescue this truck... If this is...

Nope. I had to go north for work before I got to it. I'm back down now, and I'll likely get it done in the next two weeks... Of course I'll post pics... Kinda want to wait 'till I get it up there to see how it does first, then groove and repeat... Not sure it's worth the wait, but at...

Hey Mods/ Admin, might I suggest replacing the "New Posts" link at the top with "Classifieds"?? Why would we need a "New Posts" link when that is the same as you get if you just go to ss.com, or if you click on the SS banner at the top. (Isn't this how everybody refreshes the list?? It...

Ok, I'll bite... first, I believe there should be an * at the end of your title. I say this because your whole argument is based on oversimplifying and guessing at weights, leading to your conclusion. I believe the reality of the question is slightly different. I'll admit, I only...
