    How does SF-97 work in NY

    You must submit it along with the SF-97 reassignment and bill of sale to the OMV, gain a title, and then you are free to sell just like any other car or truck. Good luck. I suggest keeping a copy of the paperwork along with a copy of the bill of sale to the nexxt owner for your EUC required...

    General EUC Question

    A co-worker of mine is at 118 days on his Feb. 3, 2010 deuce purchase. That is a new record according to the Arizona GL office. B.C. is out to lunch (& supper). jimm1009

    GL rescues my auction with two minutes left.

    This is also especially important when purchasing items such as trucks or trailers that require SF-97's and then titles. Make sure that your name on the account matches the credit card and that you name also matches your drivers license and other ID used for GL and the Office of Motor Vehicles...

    new guy needs help

    Welcome to the O.D. Green addiction for which there is no cure. If you need help getting the manuals or are missing some there are others here on S.S. that can help. Ditto on rolling backwards in first gear even with the clutch in. Jut to give it try, do it one more time. Then pull forward...

    Aircraft utility lighting

    99.5 % of the CUCV is 12 volts. The only reason for the 24 volts at all is due to radios that could be installed. All the field radios are 24 volts so therefore they need a 24 volt buss for this. I went to the junk yard and removed the dome light from a Jimmy or Blazer and installed the light in...

    CT DMV

    You are "tinkeling in the breeze" if the data plate is missing. Get a replacement data plate and stamp or engrave it, install it, and then get your truck inspected. If they see it without a data plate the sh#t will hit the fan. It is not your fault as it came like that but it is a felony to...

    Convincing wife that I need a Deuce

    It's easier to beg for forgiveness than to ask for permission. I agree and that works too. Not entirely pain free but it works. jimm1009

    Convincing wife that I need a Deuce

    I agree to all the above. Make her visualize what magnificent flower beds that she can have with all the mulch and potting soil and landscaping timbers that you can haul in for her. I know I know, but marriage is a give and take. You have to give some too. "She will be the Queen of flower beds...

    Fixing Multi-Fuel "Bugs"

    You insenative bug killer you! Seriously, really good find. I would have in my younger and moucho dumber days fired it up anyway and that would have been bad news. Great find. I wonder how long those nests have been in there. If you have a green tag hanging on the engine that may give you a...

    Reverse gear, deuce surges

    I started my own thread because this one did not show up in the search. Two (or three) questions. Does a bobed deuce also have this problem of rocking back and forth in reverse? Has anyone gone to the forward axle disconnect on a standard deuce and found some relief from this surging? I...

Is this calssic drive line bind? It is not too bad on flat paved surfaces but I was attempting to back into somones yard in...

    Got me a Deuce for a 100 Dollars

    Congradulations on the save. She is extremely good looking for a truck in your state that has been abandoned. Parts are good for the hobby but she may be able to someday drive herself down the road with your help too. Good luck, jimm1009

    Sockets

    Boys boys, he needs to change the input seal on his differential. I can't halp you since I have a M1009 but hopefully someone will chime in with the right size socket needed for removing the yoke retaining nut on the pinion shaft of your 5/4 truck. I could quote tool number from the TM but that...

    m1009 brake lights

    The turn signals and the brakes are not on the same fuse so if your turn signals work then I would replace the fuse. Standard GM style fuse. jimm1009

    FINALLY got plates, and a cautionary tale.

    I among others (probably) asked for the pics. Thanks for them as now I can visualize your "toy" in it's new home. Do the research there as mounting a licnese plate realy detracts from the appearance. I encourage every owner in every state to research this as they may have a law that allows them...

    FINALLY got plates, and a cautionary tale.

    I took the handle off the master switch and cut off about 3/4 of an inch as mine was striking the cable handle before fully engaging too. Now is goes to full engagement without interference. It is a 5 minute job with a screwdriver and a hack saw followed up by a file to remove any remaining...

    Could you clarify if it is a M105A1 or early A2 with one air hose or a later M105A2 or M105A2C, etc with two air hoses? Yellow hose to yellow fitting (left side of truck)? Thanks, jimm1009
