Re: RE: Trailering a deuce I'd never really thought of a 1 ton dually as a "hauler". I just figured a lot of farmers, horse and catlle people, that sort had them, but I never thought of them as over the road trucks. Really, isn't it just heavier duty brakes, heavier springs, a couple extra...

There have been a couple threads on here about towing or trailering a deuce. I thought maybe you guys would like to see how my hauler is bringing mine home tomorrow. He's hauling it WITH the firetruck on the trailer, as well. Looks like an enormous load for his truck, but he said he's fine...

Thanks for the offer! It's a deuce, but I ended up finding another shipping company that appears to be more reputable. If all goes well, I should be getting the truck this Thursday.

Re: RE: Re: RE: Potential shipping theft, please help.... Yep, I told them not to turn it over to anyone until I sent them a new pickup authorization.

RE: Re: RE: Potential shipping theft, please help.... Well, he never showed up. So, now my truck is sitting there for at least another week (having God knows what stolen off of it) and I have to fight with Uship to get my deposit back. Why can't people just do what they say they're going to do?

Re: RE: Potential shipping theft, please help.... He's got a couple of websites that look exactly the same with little information, one for "logistics" one for a mowing service. I found two different numbers for him that go to the same voicemail box. The guy's 24 and has a rather shady...

Re: RE: Potential shipping theft, please help.... Stupid me, I took a chance on this guy b/c I got kind of jerked around by someone else. He bid a good price, said he lived close to the lot (which, according to his website, he does) and could guarantee the pickup date. Unfortunately, he was...

Are any of you familiar with Lance Evans of Mooresville, IN? He won my shipment on uship.com and was supposed to pick the truck up today at Drexel Gardens, IN. He was supposed to call when he left the lot to let me know if he would arrive today or tomorrow. I have not heard from him all day...

Re: RE: Re: RE: Wheelbase width? Great info, thanks.

Re: RE: Wheelbase width? So, the actual width from outside to outside of the duals would be wider, maybe another 8-10 inches or so?

Re: RE: Wheelbase width? Awesome, thanks!

What is the stock deuce's wheelbase width? The overall truck width from the TM is 96", but I can't seem to find a wheelbase width. My hauler needs to know for some reason (8 ft. was not specific enough, I guess). Any help?

300? I've got it at 500 miles, KC to Indianapolis. Anyway, I think I'm going to have it hauled. We just had our second child in less than a year so I don't think the wife is too excited about me taking out across country to retrieve a 40 year-old truck. I was hoping everything would work out...

No problem. If you happen to see it out there, just let me know if it looks okay, that's all. Thanks.

Looks like my pickup is September 11th, but if you could take a look at Event 3524, Lot 4976, that would be awesome. I don't need anything in depth, just see if everything is there, see if there's any tools or manuals, make sure the soft top and cargo cover are still there, overall body...

RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: Good Deal! Woo-hoo!!! Received the Paid In Full invoice just now via email. Of course, I called to schedule the pickup and no one was there. Left a message, hopefully they are responsive. I would like to get it picked up this week if they are at Drexel Gardens. More...

RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: Good Deal! Well, I just noticed today that my CC has been charged by GL. The weird thing is that the transaction date of the charge is 8/22 (and today is 8/25). No invoice, yet. Should I be expecting that today, or am I still in for a long wait? I think I'm going to have...

Uh, could that be this guy? http://www.steelsoldiers.com/index.php?name=PNphpBB2&file=viewtopic&t=25552

So, are next Thursday and Friday (August 21st and 22nd) days they will be there, or will it be the following week?

Re: RE: Re: RE: DLA Letter Good point. The truck is at Drexel Gardens, IN. I can't find where it says manned or unmanned, but I do know that the contact number rings to Louisville, KY. I thought that was pretty strange, but just chocked it up to an error on their part.
