    Eventful Weekend

    Weekend TARHEEL, Actually there were 6-7 deputies eating breakfast that morning. I'm sure 6am on Memorial Day is slow for them. RECOVERY4X4 I'm a bit confused about your method of jacking. I now will keep extra lumber for tire changing, but how exactly do you use the 4X4 for the front? Do...

    Eventful Weekend

    Besides hooking up with TARHEEL and AM GENERAL for Memorial Day, we also had the Deuce in the woods and I experienced my first flat tire. On Saturday we took the Deuce and the boys' four-wheelers for some trail riding. We had a father and son from church come along. Then early Monday...

    Memorial Day in Hickory, NC

    Thanks to Tarheel for giving us a headsup about honoring Veterans this weekend. We had 3 deuces show up at the Crawdads baseball game Monday night where we parked right out front of the main gate. There were many vets there for the game.

    Tree Pulling

    Finally downloaded pictures from March of us cutting down trees. Not super good pics I'm afraid. We cut 2 tall white pines from the front. Those were easy since they were not close to the house. We also cut a 100' poplar and 60' Maple from the back that hung over the house. Those were...

    Changing Deuce Tires

    Big senior moment last week. I had to put a new boot on the driver's side of the Deuce and couldn't get the left front tire lug nuts to turn, and I know I got them off by hand once before. I'm embarrassed to admit it, but for all you newbies - I had forgotten the left side lugs of the Deuce...

    Bulb

    bulb Not a turn signal. It's a light at the rear side of the bed, under the bed, like a low clearance light. It may be an add-on. Thanks, I will try NAPA again and mention that it's 28 V. Brian

    Making Bows and Stakes?

    Getting green wood If you are experienced at all with firewood, you can get green wood for bending your own bows by splitting out long, thin pieces of firewood. Red Oak splits easier but white oak will split pretty easily too, and is better. Then plane the wood down smooth and cut on a table...

    What neighbors have to say about my new M1009

    On a positive note... Last week I was able to change one neighbor's opinion of my noise maker. I had taken the Deuce to work (at 6am) and parked it on the road when I got home since I had work to do in the driveway. Just before dark I was backing the Deuce down the drive when a neigbor comes...

    Tips on installing front axle boots

    Kenneth, It took me 5 hours to do my first boot. That inner clamp kept slipping; Just had to stick with it - patience. Finally got it tight and the rest was relatively easy. Been fine ever since, except I noticed the other day I have a tear in the top of my 6 month old boot. Too much...

    Insurance for NC M35A2 Owners

    NC Insurance I have Travelers for everything (except the boat). I pay $240 a year for my Deuce but it is not covered for anything commercial. When I first insured it and my agent found out its weight, he was going to charge commercial rates, but he now understands that the Deuce is for...
