Didn't Neil Hendrix's deuce have school bus wheels and tires on the front?

Very interesting! Like you say, since it looks to have no angle, it might be easier to weld up your own and get a lift too! Let us know what you come up with Lt Dan.

Henry's Truck and Equipment Sales 623 Concord Rd Albemarle, NC 28001 (704) 983-5940 Might want to call before you stop by. I also have his mobile if you don't get him at the shop or get a return call - he's pretty good about calling back though.

This might also be a dumb question, but what do the a3 perches look like - anybody have a pic? I guess I never thought about them having bigger tires from the factory and they might be lifted.

Oh yeah, once you are done with it - never mind, you will NEVER be completely DONE with it, LOL. There will always be stuff like this. These truck HAVE to be serviced regularly - check this, adjust that, replace that. But while doing this servicing, you are learning about your vehicle - becoming...

Hey Al, I have a question for you. I have the dreaded parking brake rattle. I haven't gotten under the Jeep yet to try to adjust it out. I am planning on doing that before the Denton, NC show in April though. Over on willysmjeeps site, Wes mentioned a spring (1/2" diameter x 4" long) running...

Excellent! Thanks peashooter. I am hoping that I will be in the 1% that doesn't have to do anything to mine when I install my G177s in a week or so, but having the different casting #s and specs really helps. I'd rather do mine right the first time than play around with it. I know G did a lot of...

Oh well, another one bites the dust! Have fun with it. Better get those brakes upgraded pretty soon with all the mods though - they were barely adequate for a stock setup.

Unfortunately there are only a few deuce owners (that I know of) close around me. We (my Brother and I) are quickly learning how to work on them as we are bobbing her. I have a good bit of experience working on older Jeeps, and the deuce front axle is not so different - just ALOT bigger!, so...

Yeah, it's definitely worth a visit. Not organized (to us), stuff piled everywhere, a bit junky, but still cool to look around. He has tents in crates just sitting out in the field - crates rotting away. Other wooden crates with cargo covers (I think - could be more tents) falling apart. Tires...

Don, I didn't see anything for the 880s, but I guess it could have been mixed in with the CUCV stuff that I didn't look through. Of course, the second time I walked around the back side of the field, I found a Dodge WC??(I don't know muck about them) and what looked like a WW2 Ben Hur...

I'm not exactly sure what he was talking about as far as helping out. The only thing I can figure is moving all of his vehicles and inventory to the Farmpark. They were moving stuff Thursday when I got there on into Friday and he was running back and forth to the shop even on Saturday. He had a...

Alright, my Brother and I went to Jim Henry's place today to pick up a few parts. I asked him about the show. He said everything is still on for the dates listed. He said the only problem he is having is getting help with everything. I told him if I was a little closer (I'm about 100 miles away)...

Like I said, I'll be getting a driver side door w/canvas at the show in April. If I can't pick up a passenger side, I might try to build one with "modified" hinge pins. My daughter has some white roll paper that will be perfect for a tracing if/when I get one. Not going to make it to Belleville...

You are right about the bellhousings - the one with the solid inspection plate and clutch cable hole fitting are for the M38a1. The reasoning for this is to keep it water tight for fording. The transfer case with the drum on it is most likely a CJ part - the M38a1 drum is solid with a dished...

Mounting plate depends on the application of the engine. L head is is the same way.

Did anybody ever make these templates? I know this is an old thread, but I may be in the same situation. Also, I read on some thread out there in internet land somewhere, that the main frame is exactly the same on both sides, that just the hinge pins are mounted different? Can anyone...

Same here - I hope to be doing the same thing in a couple of weeks + brakes.

That's a well equipped, BADDD bobber you got there

Yeah, we have an M105 - we are going to paint it desert tan to match the truck. We have already cut the original bed and frame - it is in the blasting booth now. The rear of the truck is already blasted and primed. My brother's shop guy is supposed to be turning it around in the booth today and...
