Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan... But once we move back to Connecticut... THAT will be a roadtrip for sure! Matt

As for the 10K rating... they don't intend for you to be pulling the deuce up the side of a building... or lowering a deuce backwards off a plateau (Monkey Wrench Gang)... Matt

Don't press the "back" button to get back to the forum. If you click a link to get back to the listing of threads, it should register that you have read that thread. If it still is orange after you "read" all the individual posts, click the "Mark all topics read" at the top of the screen that...

wallew- That debug thing is the SMTP error that mangus was referring to. Matt

Check FLMV.net. He calls the product a grill blanket, but it comes with all the hardware, and all that. Matt

HOORAY FOR MIKE!!! On a serious note, nicely done, Mangus. Matt

clinto- Those Guiness cans with the widget are kind of a pain to fit, though, aren't they? :-) Matt

Bjorn- Where and how much? Matt

Kenny- That's the plan later this week!! Matt

Bjorn- Flipping the stock bolts would require drilling square holes in the frame for the carriage bolts. I am guessing the replacement grade 8 bolts will have hex heads to avoid that issue. Matt

The weight rewuirement for a CDL is based on how much it COULD weigh fully loaded. That's why my 23,350 lb deuce is perfect (empty plus 5 tons on-road) and below the 26 K limit. Ugg pointed out the issue that has been discussed before - some states require (foolishly) a CDL based on weight...

Transfer case itself is manual, only. Maybe you are referring to how to engage the front axle? In that case, there are three options: 1 - Original sprague setup - this leaves the front axle partially engaged at all times, and will fully engaged if it "senses" that the rear wheels are moving more...

Yea... the deuce-induced smile will get you every time!! Congrats on the purchase! Matt

A new section for "Vendor Feedback." Allow those of us who are contemplating purchasing from a firm to see what experience others have had. I would say that for now, it could be a bunch of threads, each titled a vendor, with a poll allowing everyone to vote on their experience with that vendor...

Ditto to what Trango said... As I recall, a member of the forum mentioned the pinion brake idea to Daniel @ 6x6, and Daniel promptly stole the idea and is now profiting from another's work. Not to mention, he is notorious for delayed/unreliable deliveries. Maybe an idea is a "Vendor Feedback"...

So does this mean that once you begin using ether to start the truck, you will more than likely have to use it, even at temperatures that you might have been able to start at before? Or what is the net impact? Should the ether starter be shied away from? I haven't used it yet, and I don't want...

Armada- I have heard that engines become ... "addicted" (for lack of a better word) to ether, once you start using it. Is this true? Matt

If we weren't so close to getting the boat, I would love to join you guys. As it is, the deuce is already over in Cheboygan, MI. It's buttoned up (batteries out, fuel preservative in, intake and exhaust sealed, etc.) so it can sit and wait for our arrival. Perhaps next year?! Matt

Mike... We live only to torture you!! As I mentioned... give a guy a beer, he will ask for a pretzel... Give SS a great new forum, they keep asking for more!! We all appreciate the hard work, Mike! Matt

I hope he doesn't mind if we hijack his map...... :wink: Matt
