    It died, HELP

    I just pulled the pink duece into the parking lot from a short drive and it died. This is the first time it has ever happened. I did notice that it was a little harder to start the last couple of times I fired it up. About five seconds on the button instead of the normal one. It won't fire...

    Wow. That is one sweet gun! Where can a person get tires for these things? The ones on it are from an airplane they say. Is that correct?

    They are actually on loan from a local village and American Legion. I have to check but rumor has it there is another set within 20 miles from me ion another park.

    I'll try to get them posted Sat or Sun. My wife took the camera and I'll try to get the one from work. I did get pretty far without someone asking though.

    quad 50's won't rotate

    I guess I should take off the hitch end of the trailer. That way the guns can poiunt out the back of the truck. Is it just the two large bolts that hold it on? It can't be that easy!

    quad 50's won't rotate

    I had the thing sandblasted but the inside was riddled with cancer. I don't remember even seeing the turret ring gear or pinion. Is this the only gear that would be holding it? If it is rust, any suggestions?

    quad 50's won't rotate

    I am trying to get the 50's to rotate so I don't have to remove the tongue of the trailer. It had tabs welded on to prevent it from turning which I have cut. what next? Nothing seems to want to give. Is there a motor or gear rhat I need to remove? I have been looking at the tech manual and...

    Thinkin about doing a blue camo, thoughts?

    I say, go for it. I think the blue will stand out as being very different and there won't be any others like it. Good luck and post pics!

    generator swap

    Sorry, as the alternator. My experience has been more with the older jeeps that had a generator and a voltage regulator which are seperate items.

    generator swap

    What is the best way for me to tell if it is the generator or the regulator that is the problem?

    generator swap

    I believe so. I don't have it home yet but I believe it does have one.

    generator swap

    Is the m35a2's generator a unique item or what other vehicles had the same one? I am getting another duece and seems to have a problem with the generator not charging all the time.

    flash supressor

    Has anyone ever made the flash suppressors for a quad 50? They don't have to be perfect just look darn close. I know I can buy the real thing for about $39 each but that really digs into my limited budget on this build. Any suggestions?

    graphics help on gun truck

    I've got the deuce coming and I am pretty sure I have the quad 50's lined up also. What I am looking for is a unique way to have the slogan painted on the truck. I would like to paint the truck black with red lettering. The colors of the program are black and red.
