    Help with the Cargo Cover Please!

    On my cover there are straps on the inside at the top. You roll the cover up, reach inside for the strap, bring it outside under the roll and there should be a clip made into the cover for the hook to fit into. Hook it and tighten to secure. Ther are several straps on each side. I think the...

    Deuce brakes locking up

    Did you change the master cylinder push rod adjustment?? If the petal does not have enough free travel then it can hold the piston in and it will cover the return hole in the master cylinder and fluid cannot return. Also the return hole could be plugged and not letting fluid return. When the...

    Bringing a XM211 back to life

    I drove my truck to Taccoa Ga. for the dedication of a Musuem for the para-troops that trained there. We displayed at an air field close to there the next day. The Motel we stayed in was full of old Para-troops and Citizens of the Country's they landed in. The stories we heard at Breakfast...

    Mike, have you changed something big?

    I don't get any messages but it has been real slow for a long time. My friend Bob got so upset about it he tried to speed his machine up by removing unnessary programs and removed his sound. Had to start over and re-install everything.

    Possible weak in tank pump?

    If the compressed air won't push it then there has to be a blockage somewhere. It could be a rubber line thats bad on the inside. Usually this is a problem when the fuel pump is mounted on the engine and sucking fuel from the tank. I can see where a flap could be torn loose in the other...

    Possible weak in tank pump?

    I would think if it pumps any at all it should be OK. I have three trucks that the pumps don't work at all and they run fine. Two of them if they sit for quite a while it takes extra cranking time to get them started but then they crank right up. You may have an obstruction somewhere that is...

    One of our antique tractor club members also runs a jeep salvage businness. He has an old Willys with the three point hitch on the back. He brought it to one of our plowdays with a harrow on the back and plowed right along with the tractors.

    Where are you staying for the 09 GA Rally

    The wife and I sleep in the back of my M813. It has two air beds, table and chairs, potty chair for night duties and a 110 volt converter for what ever needs to be run. After being real cold one night last year I now have a tent heater to break the chill. We put up a canopy tent beside the...

    FNG needs advice

    I agree to inspect if you can. If you can't then stay on the cheap side so you can afford to fix things if need be. I got a nice Duece for $1240.00 plus fees sight unseen. It was missing the alternator, master ignition switch and one windshield which were all easy fixes. Mechanically the...

    Deuce Air Supply

    Most people that use on board air offen usually add extra tanks for more capacity. I had a flat at the Ga Rally two years ago and used air from my 5 ton truck to power the air wrench. We had to break the lugs by hand and then used my half inch cheap impact to remove the nuts. It worked fine...

    I just did one yesterday and used the brake cylinder hone on the slave. The air side had one rough spot I cound not sand out by hand so I used an engine cylinder hone on it. that cut it right out but left the finish a little rough. I polished it by hand with some 200 grit paper. It was still...

    Brake problem question

    I had one do that on the truck we just worked on. I think the shoe is worn to the point it won't adjust. We just made sure we had it at its highest point and let it go. It seems to have good brakes.
