    Fuse Block Question - Where to pull power?

    Fuse boxes are not grounded. The frame and cab are grounded to the battery and almost everything is then grounded to the cab. However you can add an addition ground box to the battery if needed.

    IP problem with my new Deuce...need advice

    It does sound something is screwy. He may have removed the lever and not put it back correctly. Is there any evidence the the lever has been removed? Scratches on the nut? I would stop and the start from the beginning. Set the #1 cylinder at TDC, Check the crankshaft timing mark, remove the...

    M1009 popping the main light fuse

    I was just thinking about this, If you split the firewall plug you kill all the power to inside the cab. Nothing will work. Go ahead and pull it apart, clean it with an old toothbrush and some electrical contact cleaner. Inspect for any corroded or broken tabs and put it back together.

    I have about 150 of the left rear window glass. Local pickup only as the box is too big to ship.

    M1009 wont crank when outside temp is hot and motor is cool from sitting all day

    Please clarify. It will not crank - engine does not turn at all or It will not start - engine cranks but will not fire. If it does crank, what is the speed? fast or slugish? Just because a part is new does not mean that it isn't bad. Only way to know if a starter is good is to remove it and...

    M1009 popping the main light fuse

    With your limited skill set on electrical, it will take some time to work you thru the process but we can get it done. Now to the issue. Is you truck stock? Has the wiring been modified? Any additions added? Still 24v?

    M1009 popping the main light fuse

    The blacklight switches are a military item. Used is the only option that I am aware of. The headlight switch is a standard part and can be found in just about any parts house. Have you found the FREE technical manuals that have all the wiring diagrams in them? They are listed under the...

    Veterans Need Help With Transportation

    Is it just the wood on the bows broken? If you can just replace the wood, a green tarp with bungee straps works wonders. If needed I have a bunch of bow corners you can have.

    IP problem with my new Deuce...need advice

    The sleeve just slides up and down. It is a precision fit part. Use a small screwdriver or an ice pick, insert into the groove and gently slide it up and down. If it doesn't move easily it may be gummed up. Use some carb cleaner and give it a squirt. repeat until it moves freely. Now if the...
