What is the mechanical & structural condition of this deuce. To spend $2500 for a truck that doesn't run and has all the drama. I'm not degrading your mechanical ability or skill level but if I where you I would have another deuce owner look her over first. I only suggest this because I know...

P/S "kit" on ePay for $2,850 with free shipping. It is a full bolt on hydro kit but you do have to cut your steering column. His itemized list has no disclaimers or "off road only" statements.

What blows me away is the entire tone of this thread. By that I mean what this Nation of ours has turned into. It sickens me to think what John Browning or Sam Colt would think if they read this thread. Instead of being excited and encouraging invention we have been reduced to this. Warning an...

I bought my Deuce in Texas with only a bill of sale. I had to get a vin search done on the truck. TxDMV - Title Check Once the vin has been cleared you take that paperwork to the DPS and buy what's called a bonded title. The bond is figured on the value of the vehicle. You will need three...

nf6x, I'd like to see a pick or two of your tool box mod. I have been trying to find a cheap way to mount some type of extra tool box or something to my deuce. I need extra storage for tools and bug out supplies that's accessible from the ground. I'm wanting to mount some kind of water tight...

I used 3/4" interlocking foam mats. You get 16 sf for $20 at Lowes. Used them and some construction adheasive to replace the black foam insulation on my hard top. Works great and has survived a summer in Texas without a piece falling or warping. They also offer a great deal of rigidity to the...

Interested. Does your system require splicing into the steering column as stated before. I would like to have ps in my truck. I would love to have ps in my truck for under $800. I would not fancy loss of positive control should the system go down. I'm Also curious to know If it has been...

Well, had to try. Thanks any way. There's a couple other US6 owners on SS maybe one of them could guide me in the right direction. Glenn

I pulled the dip stick and to my amazement the oil looked clean and fresh. Not sure if that's a good thing or not. I'm almost half tempted to throw a battery in her and some fuel to see if she'll start. Don't worry fellas I'm not that stupid. I will start tearing things down this fall. She is...

Set two. It looks to me that a pressure washer would improve conditions considerably. I took a closer look at her belly and I can see no significant rust or damage. The floor pan of the cab is solid. Even under the seat. The main trans to dif driveshaft spins freely. There are no puddles under...

Here we go. New picks and info tags found. If anyone can help with deciphering them I would greatly appreciate it. I was thinking about sending the info to the great carnac but I wasn't sure if his sources go back this far. I couldn't get to the data plate on the side of the block so I got the...

Let us know how it works out. Lot's of picks please. Especially to temp mount and B/A for inside cans if possible.

http://www.popularmechanics.com/scie...s/tips/4327161 This link was in the same thread. I like the idea of the long piano hinge. More stability I would think. But with the side cut like that it may be harder to weather proof and lock. Any ideas about a lockable closing clasp and the best way to...

Here;s the web site: www.rampagejeepaccessories.com A Jerry can turned into a tool box has got to be one if the coolest and most ingenious ideas I've ever seen. You could do something a bit more basic ie: just hinge lid and uses it to store spare parts like radiator hoses and extra fan belts...

I used to run heavy equipment for a site prep comany in TX. I ran a cabbed up Komatsu 350 rubber tire front end loader and those are the exact tire it had. We use to road them from site to site and she would easily do 55mph. But that was for short distances 5 to 10 miles max. And believe you me...

No doubt, The only thing missing from the "ultimate Man day" is the keg and the dancing girls. LOL We'll see ya there

Agreed. I took the advice of hndersonj and found a fella with 3 cans on Craigslist just today.

Ridgerunner to the rescue once again. Thanks again old friend. In case you don't have my address anymore I will PM you the info. Just let me know what the charge is to 75154.

Please accept my heartfelt apology for not listening to your first posting on this thread. What was I thinking? Please excuse my compliancy and ignorance for not doing “5 minutes of research” before I replied to WagonMasters question. If your intent was to make me feel like a complete Idiot...
