I have been playing with cars for a long time and have still never been able to decide what the best choice is here. Pressure washing it is fast and easy but the inevitable sprayback sucks and the environmental issues are non favorable. I have a nice 30 gallons parts washer but it takes...

Here's the thing about deuces and trailers (and I guess this goes for 5-tons as well). If you want to pull normal, civvy type car haulers or even deckover style trailers, you'll need a receiver hitch and a dropped drawbar. The factory pintle is so high that even if your deckover has an...

Do you have the factory arms on the air motors or do you have the M44A3 style electric wipers? I've never found the factory air ones as a civilian unit-I've only seen them at surplus places. If you do a conversion to civilian arms, you can use civilian blades as well. There are some good...

Scrap here in Georgia is so low I've been sitting on about 6,000 lbs for months waiting for it to go back up.

Just be honest: "It's one of the 3 or 4 best military vehicle rallies in the country and only dorks don't attend it" I totally agree with SWB's sentiment. I really thought after we had 106 trucks in 2012 and 109 in 2013 that the rally had sort of plateau'd in terms of growth. Then it grew...

George was a great guy. I bought my NOS 20' slave cable from him and he spent an hour on the phone chatting with me about MVs. Seemed like a really great guy.

I really like the A3 cushion, it's super comfortable. And it's a much better choice for the passenger side as well. I didn't realize this but the standard spring ride seat feels fine on the drivers side, but on the passenger side it kind of doesn't. Due to the seating position, the passenger...

No. I had to build an adapter to do mine.

So I have the traditional Snap-On cooling system pressure tester: https://store.snapon.com/Cooling-System-Testers-Tester-Cooling-System-P772439.aspx Does anyone know if any of the adapters Snap-On sells for these will work with the deuce radiator? Thanks C

http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?127505-deuce-making-oil There are multiple places the system can bleed fuel into the oil system. Go read this thread, it has a complete list of all the places the system can be compromised and some links to threads that show how to deal with it:

57lafrance was having some image upload issues, so he emailed them to me and I'm putting them up for him. I'm sure he'll be along shortly to add commentary.

I really thought when I bought my first deuce all those years ago that it was one of those things like a boat or motorcycle that eats up a lot of time and money but really serves no practical purpose (I don't think you can call "fun" practical). But we use our deuces (me and my small circle of...

Last of the shots. So artistic.

So my buddy u/It'saplymouth calls me last night and is all "Hey, can you bring the deuce over to the development in Bogart? I've stuck the Jacobsen mower in a detention pond." I go over and walk the area with him, we made a plan and got the mower out in less time that it took to make the plan...

No, you can just show up. Primitive doesn't require pre registration. We're glad you're planning on joining us this year!

We saw your ambulance at the convention last month, the pictures here just don't do it justice, you did a great job with it. I have little doubt it's nicer than it was when it left the factory. Here are some pictures we took:

Next you need to pull the rod caps off and look at the bearings. These are tri-metal bearings so there will be a silver top surface, with copper showing beneath when they get worn. Here's a bearing where the outer layer of material has been worn down: After you check all the rods, you can...

Ah, much thanks! :beer: I went looking for a 1070 interior shot and found a very good example on prime portal (an excellent site). Very high resolution image here: http://data3.primeportal.net/transports/jeremy_mowers/het_cab_empty/images/het_empty_cab_08_of_17.jpg That's not an exact...

I don't remember there being a bunch of different discs (I've seen 5 and 6 puck units) but there are 3 and 4 finger pressure plates. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?32550-Duce-clutch-disk-pucks...

I was wrong. It wasn't the blinkers not blinking, it was the indicator light on the turn signal switch not illuminating when the blinkers were on. Poor grounding of the switch to the column. So I've had zero issues since installation and I'd say half the time the truck is driven it's with a...
