    Driving it home

    If you are worried about insurance go ahead and call or go online to hagarty and get it insured. You can email them some gl pictures by right clicking on them and copying them to your email to them. You will need outside, inside cab and a engine shot. You can do it over the phone and on line...

    Tow Bar Connection to M37

    The shim idea is best. You could really put some twist / torque on those things and the movement could break something.

    Hole in Gas tank

    I have used the JB weld to fix a crack and a hole in a transmission casing on one of my farm tractors. It worked great and did not leak. It may be worth a try if no other option is readilly available or cost effective.

    Removing the tire from the wheel

    I agree with wreckerman. [thumbzup] I cant see killing yourself (getting wore out) over giving away some tires or spending a bunch of money to have someone do it for you.. Its just not equitable. Tire shops in my area would break them down for about $10 each but you spend $100 to bring in...

    Another tire question on bobbed deuce?

    Good answers Westech. Also you will have steering clearance issues with those tires on the front. Even with the smaller 395's on stock rims you will have some rubbing on tighter turns. The 395's work fine but when you turn hard they may scrub some.

    Alternatives to NOS wire harnesses?

    I just ordered a rear wiring harness on ebay. It came in and was beautiful. Brand new in the plastic bag. It even smelled new. I was pleased. Oddshot came over and we installed it. It was a little easier with no bed on the back of the deuce. It took us about an hour to remove all the...

    Blairsville, GA Memorial Day Parade

    We had a few guys have to back out of going to the parade because of scheduling conflicts. If anyone wants to join us it will be a great parade. Trucks need to be ready by 9:00 AM in Blairsville for the judging. Every truck must have an American Flag on it somewhere. (no size limitations)...

    Rear Axle Bearings

    Just checked NAPA and they said they are a special order item not even carried in the distribution center and had to be special shipped price plus postage and they could not locate the outer cone by the number 392 at all. I am going to keep looking and check O' Rielly.

    Rear Axle Bearings

    The reason I am replacing them is that when Oddshot and I were flipping my hubs this week on my bobbed truck we noticed some of the bearings appeared to be scored or marred up, and looked imperfect and kind of rolled roughly or irregularly. At this point it is a preventative meassure being that...

    Rear Axle Bearings

    I need to replace my rear axle bearings in my deuce. I have been checking prices today and they are all over place. Does anyone know of a supplier that sells them reasonably? I am going to replace the inner and outers on my bobbed duece.

    deuce stalls at speed!

    Mine was doing the same thing a few weeks ago. To get home what I did was go under the truck with the power switch on and opened the drain valve on the primary filter flushing out the crap in the bottom section of the filter housing and getting the water out. I let about a quart run out then...
