Yes I have a hoist in the back of my truck!!! Sometimes it is just faster to do it the hard way:cookoo:
I am planning on being there for this one........I actually got NEW yes I said "NEW" as in (never on a rim or truck new) shoes for the old girl......rollin' 11.00 XL's now, just gotta get the...
Lighter too!!!! I have a couple of trucker chains in a HEAVY canvas bag along with some big clevis's and can almost not even lift the thing off the ground!!! I have to load the bag then put the chains back in it when I want to put it in the truckaua
The deuce uses a 1/2" line out of the tank, how much bigger is the line on your truck now, I couldn't imagine it to be very much larger than that.....also I know the IP in the deuce will pull fuel just fine if the in tank isn't working, so it is more of a lift pump to help out, it doesn't push...
You can get he lollipop lights here, brand new with the brackets. $12.50 each......this is where I got mine:

Scroll down about 3/4's of the way and you will see them.
The 816 shares the same exact cab as the deuce so a ring mount that will fit a...
Well, I would look at it like this. Do you have the mechanical ability to do what ever you want to the truck? If so than just buy a regular deuce.....start to drive it around, IF you find it is a little too big to manage(give it at least a month if you aren't use to big trucks) you can always...
The plug by the alternator might just be worn out.....the 2 wires in that plug are for, 1:exciter wire to make the alternator "charge", and the second is used for a volt gauge(or light).
You can tell which is which with a meter, or a redneck power bulb(a marker light socket with a bulb in...
Just in case you are curious how it looks.....this is just a mock up remind you....I had a 5" stack that was dented up to try out before I buy all new stuff.....and yes I am going to go a little shorter with the real one.
Why how interesting, I am in the process right now of upgrading my exhaust to a 5"......I'm starting at the turbo with 4" to a 4" x 4 1/2" elbow then a short piece of pipe to a 4 1/2" x 5" elbow out the fender and putting on the 5" stack........I can tell you that with the stock "j" pipe and...
Hey Sparky, I use house water system filters.....first one is a 20 micron and then the final is a 5 micron......no sense going any finer than that. The final filter on our trucks is a 6 micron....and gas station fuel is only filtered to 10 micron(just so you know). Been filtering mine that way...
Best I know, NO you don't if it is for personal use ONLY......no hauling stuff for friends for gas money(that is technically "for hire"). Plating might be a bit of money though, I don't think your truck will be old enough for Historical plates.......also hope you have a place to park the truck...
Hi, I am over here in Griffith.......not far from you.......I might be able to help you out with a recovery......I tow bared my current deuce with my old deuce. Depending on the condition of the truck we could just drive it back.
You'll have to PM me here soon, I would like to meet you....I...
Boy now I feel like a dumb A$$:oops:......hope you weren't offended....we do get a lot of kids on here that just tap away on their little smart phone with no regards to spelling and what not......makes it hard to read......I hope you can accept my full apology!! And I want to thank you for your...
Most of the time it is an easy fix.......just look at the pic above and remove the screws holding the cover on, then it is plug and play.....(most of the time) once in a while there is a soldered connection....
Brake fill depends on what model of Deuce you have........A2, like said remove bolt holding the flap on the floor......A3 then yes remote reservoir.....it is on the firewall in the engine bay.
And no the alternator is NOT putting out enough......should be in the 28 volt range when...
A couple of things.........I think you have a bad fuel filter(s) and the "pump" not working is adding to the problem.......nothing you can do until you fix those FIRST.
While you are waiting........look over the site and learn "WHERE" to post your threads.......this should have been in the...
Sounds to me like one or both of your batteries have a bad cell in it......If you have one bad battery it will drag the other down with it. Take them back to where you got them and have them checked out.....or if you ordered them, go to Autozone, they do it for free.
Howdy from up north..........so how's the vampires and werewolves down there.........sorry True Blood joke:whistle:......if you don't watch the show you won't get it:confused:....
That's exactly what I used.....you will find that it goes on way easier than the stock stuff.....no fighting at all. Pull the instrument cluster back to get at the hose clamps easier also.... I didn't stretch it out all the way so it is a little heavier....there is plenty of it in there to do 3...
