    Hardtops and Heaters

    is there a difference in tire flaps?

    thanks for the help. i think i bought some extra 9.00x20 flaps last year just in case. i have to dig through all the spare parts in boxes to see. my thought was tubes are somewhat standard for tires, if i ever had tire trouble on any of my 3 deuces. but the flaps might come in handy.

    is there a difference in tire flaps?

    after reading several threads i have not got a yes or no answer, just probably, should or should not. tire flaps, are they the same for the same rim or are they different of each tire? on regular deuce rims are they the same for 9.00x20, 11.00x20, 14.00x20 and 395's? i am trying to come up...

    LP-fired Coolant Heater Idea!!!

    extra battery (cheapest deep cycle) to a 12 volt plug in wth a all weater cap like in a boat, so you can remove the heater before driving driving. i don't think the heaters are weather proof. lift the hood and plug in the heater while the engine is alrady hot, that way the heater just has to...

    MV head light buckets

    are you looking to replace your headlights or add extra off road lights and are they sealed like the LED head lights? i bought a pair of the 7" route clearance lights that mount like fog lights and i could take a picture of the mount, if you need to fab some.

    Deuce Seat Shocks
