    Just bought a Deuce

    muffler? it's about the noise and the green and the vibration and the NOISE, and the noise. invite your neighbor for a ride, then he will get it. if not, take his wife and kids for a ride, they will get it and tell him to chill

    add on value of a box van (communications)

    most of the dueces selling have either "flat beds" or bows, covers and troop seats. what is the "change in value" for a communications box van? up? down? the same? (this one has the electrical, but not the desks, etc.) i may need a second duece because my one is lonely. thanx dan

    omfg, this really good friend of mine retires after 30 years as a cop. goes across the country to pick up his dream car, a little pro street dragster. proudly drives his wheelying little baby around the block a few times, then blips the throttle pulling it into my shop, the throttle sticks and...

    looking at the positive, the brake test was successful, and the brakes are functional, operating correctly, and fully capable of stopping the trailer :)

    front axle air switch

    devilman, i googled it really quick, and it seemed like it was about $30 to $50. i did not dig really hard, but sure did not see $15. but, you are the parts guy, so i trust your answer, actually, it is probably not worth rebuilding a $30.00 part.

    front axle air switch

    jones, which fit and material is correct? is this the "exact" nos part? i have seen some discussion of rebuild kits for the tw-1, if it is the exact part, maybe a few minutes of rebuilding would "git er done". thanx for the answers, the tm is surprisingly non commital on this part of the circuit

    front axle air switch

    has anyone "rebuilt" their front axle air switch? i don't see any clue how to do it in the tm, and everyone i have asked if "they have one in stock" has said that they rarely sell them. so i am guessing that somehow mine is the first one to leak (which i doubt) or that there is someone who knows...

    Brake Lights On too long

    doesn't that sound like a bad (sticky) switch, as opposed to a brake problem? can you hook a ohm meter to the switch with no wires hooked to it, and see if it is just a "draggy" switch. sorry if this is somehow crazy, just a thought from an electronics geek.

    Trailer Hitch

    gbooth genius, pure genius!. i was trying to figure out how to build a low "tug" hitch for my duece, never thought of addind a high lunette to the trailer. i guess i will just have to be more careful about dropping the tailgate on the pickup when pulling the horse trailer. good deal!
