    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    If you are being beat by Deuce electrical then you should buy new and have another drink. Old trucks = bad grounds! bad connections! broken wires! crumbling insulation! Shorts. New car can have same issue if parked in a field for years. Mine is a 1971 and so far starter rebuilt, new alternator...

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    I don't know why but they ( Deuce ) tend to make everyone smile, wave, want pictures taken and of course ride in it. Your neibors will hate you. Kids will love you. And ladies like to ride in um. Good luck. Pictures please.

    Install remote air tank drains. While down there I see I have 3 rear wheel seals leaking. Does it ever end. Win B-52 tire dolly with hopes of it working on the Deuce. It will with some small mods. I am so glade I won it. The thought of pulling all the tires again hurts my back. I am running...

    Go hard or go home also applies to breaking stuff... Grenaded my front wheel bearings

    I have cut many races off spindles with a torch without spindle damage. It is a mess with lots of fire for a short time but can be done. The key is not to heat race to long and cut as soon as you can. All heat applied to race and blow till you get to spindle. The spindle should not be hot enough...

    I am paying just over $700 a year on my auto. It is liability only and $100,00. They have classic also but I did not want the limitation.

    Ndebele from New Jersey

    I wish she was show ready but she isn't. He is a work in progress and just when I think she is road worthy he throws a curve ball. In time maybe. Pulling wheels to check is a must.

    best gear oil for deuce

    I used Ford tractor oil from Tractor Supply and am not happy. Truck is very hard to get in gear moving or sitting. Sinkcros go in but not gear. Will be changing to motor oil next in trans. Oil did not need changing but I installed PTO so I put new oil in. GL1 but what weight? TS oil must be to...

    need opinion... I'm stuck

    2 nd gear high range and you think the 460 is going to give more wheel speed, no way it has no torque on the lower rs you will have to bild that 460 up make a strokes out of it and rehear deuce to match. Fix rat, check valves, injectors and install pyro then adjust fuel. Just keep an eye on the...

    Front axle seals and boots stepXstep

    Don't hit the threads. Smack the side of the arm with a heavier hammer on opposite side. I leave the nut on loosely protecting the threads in case I miss.

    Wheel Bearing Temps High, grease & Preload Q's

    Look, lock rings waskers get used once. Remove and throw away. Replace cups and cones as new sets, they are ground to fit together. Always pack the seal lip with grease. Also a tight bearing will burn up, a lose one will run forever. Small amount of play will go away when bearings warm up. If u...
