    Any police issues with driving an unregistered 5 tonner from base?

    I can say with an absolute positive that you CAN drive home here in Indiana with only a bill of sale(actually you have 30 days).....NO TAGS..........not sure on the insurance thing as I always at least call my agent when I am at the vehicle I am driving home.....don't want to get in an accident...

    Does it hold just fine when the light switch is turned off........if so than the drain is in the light circuit.

    Best way to jump start with or with out cables

    You don't have to get 24 volts from the battery you are jumping from.........I've jumped my deuce a bunch off a 12 volt car when I first got it and was working out the alternator bug it had(bought it and didn't know it had a sporadic alternator) All you have to do is hook into one of the 24...

    GL contractors destroying cucv's

    Weather I want to drive on a truck with old hoses or not is besides the point........with this type of destruction being done, it at the minimum makes recovery a pain in the butt. I would not want to even try to fire up the truck.......or might not even be able to fire up the truck to load...

    Copper fuel return line

    For the return line at the tank, why not change the fitting on the top of the tank........use whatever fitting you need for what ever line you want to run.......I'm planning on running AN lines on most of my fuel system, the tank threads are common pipe threads, you can get any brass fitting you...

    Changing to diesel on a old M52 tractor.

    The tank can be used....you are going to a multi fuel so gas won't hurt anything.........you will need to install a fuel shut off cable, the one on the dash that hooks to the Injection pump so you can shut down the motor.

    won some wheels/tires on GL; tell me I didn't screw up...

    Just to clear something up........the 15.50 tire is 46.6" tall........IT WILL FIT ON A DEUCE, even with BOTH axles........they are the same as a 395.....I am 100% sure of this. Now as to the original question of whether that particular combo will work..........I don't know, you will have to...

    15.5/80x20 will they fit on a deuce?

    You should be just fine then......sound like you are familiar with running the large tires......the only other thing I can think of is the 15.5's are a bit heavier, and the side walls are a bit harder/stiffer, so a little harder to mount on the stock rims, but fit the same as your 395's.

    15.5/80x20 will they fit on a deuce?

    They are the same as the 395's that you see alot of people running.......you can run them on the stock rims.......although, most will tell you NOT to run them it is unsafe......KEEP that in mind. I had 395's on my truck on stock rims(you can see pics in my album).......when you want to make a...
