A great way to get a deuce is to get one of the members here to help you find one and help look it over. Just about everyone is willing (and would like) to help a new member get started in the hobby. It is common for a member to even help tow a deuce home so you can properly service it and...

Yep, on ebay.

I'm picking up rims and tires next week. If anyone else wants any, just let me know.

Can anyone give me some input on these?

I haven't seen too many trucks that will make a HET truck/trailer combination look small. Check out the truck shown in the pic. I think it must be an M920 with 16.00R20 singles and I think I need one. :lol:

There were several sold on GL at Fort Riley last week for under $1000. They might require a little work, though.

Yeah, I would be interested in convoying with anyone coming from the West.

That is a bonus to have the TMVG just before our rally. At this point, there is a 50/50 chance I can make the rally, but was there any resolution to the question regarding water/power connections? Do we each need to contact D-Day to make a reservation for an RV spot?

I'm looking into some new tires, either the Goodyear G177 or G286 in 1100R20 size. From a few searches on the forum, I know we have a few members running each of these in single configuration on a deuce. Does anyone have them setup as duals on a deuce or have them in duals on their 5 ton? I'm...

I knew you had a link there, but I wasn't smart enough to figure out how to logout and see it! Call me an idiot.

Can someone help this guy out at g503? http://www.g503.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=97053

That is a good looking wrecker, indeed. I liked the other one with the Xls as well. And whoever stole the one in PA is smiling big tonight! Good luck on the road trip. I doubt Oklahoma is on the way, but look me up if you come through.

RE: Like Jason Said, Oops I Did It Again BTW, where is it coming from? Maybe you could link up with someone.

RE: Like Jason Said, Oops I Did It Again 1800 miles? Wow :driver: , it is going to be a road trip. The 816s aren't all that fast because they weigh 35,000#. I keep mine around 50-55 mph. No clue on fuel mileage, but it can't be good due to the weight.

I have been setting funds aside for over a year to get some super single wheels and tires for my 5 tons. I found a place that says they have "plenty". Split rims, 10 bolt, 16 bolt and 20 bolt. They also have 14.00R20s and 16.00R20s tires in Michelin XL, Michelin XZL and Goodyear AT-2A tread...

If you get the truck, I could probably use the tank.

Well for $600-$700 bucks you can't go wrong. I should have bought a dozen of them.

Did you add a pintle to the tanker trailer? I can't imagine one being there stock. Now you just need a big SOB towbar to hook something else on the train! :-)

When I was researching them last year, I read about a guy converting one to something like an overgrown pickup. Now that would be cool. The cab has good lines, not to mention gullwing fenders and automatic louvers in the grill.

Should be Cummins 555, auto tranny. With 5000 gallons in the tank, this truck barely moves uphil (10mph). Not very practical except for which it was designed (delivering fuel on a tarmac).
