You can use PVC Pipe of the right diameter if you're not concerned with the run flats. The rubber "spacers" are run flats. there is a magnesium run flat as well as the rubber version.
Yes. Search ebay for spacers.
I talked to a mechanic when I picked up my deuce and he said that they used to just run 8 bolt hummer wheels on CUCVs and would just turn them around backwards. It reqired a little fender trimming, but worked well. It would look odd, but would work.
I told them what it was and they said I had to go through progressive and it would be $500 for 6 months! What did I do wrong?:cry: I'm definitely going to shop around some more
Since getting my deuce and sitting in others, seat choice has become increasingly important to me. Obviously I'm going for a springer seat. The first pic shows a standard box type seat and the second pic shows a springer. I can't tell which the third pic is. Are there any other types I...
I just found a pump that I can afford. Do you guys think this pump will work ok to pump through 2 filters? I don't care if it takes a while. I was going to use a 10 micron and then a 5 micron filter/water separator. I don't know what pressure/flow rate to use for a pump.
Here's an example of fines levied for using alternative fuels

Glad to hear you got it done! Seating a bead with ether is definitely a right of passage to truly becoming a man. :razz:
You can even do it with the wheel on the truck!
:lol:
I definitely would rather just remove the valve core and let it equal itself out than jump up with an air hose.
I seriously doubt you have to worry about residual ether causing a blow out. I'm pretty positive it is all consumed in the explosion, and even if it weren't, ether isn't powerful...
Oh yea, I find it easier to spray a trail of ether down the tire and across the ground and light that instead of throwing a match like that guy did. You can also use the can of ether as a blow torch to light from a distance. It's a hell of a good time, especially for the first time. :-D

I've done it several times with 44" super swampers. Just make sure you pull the valve cores or the tire could explode.
I play the trumpet. This is my sixth year now and after playing 2 overtimes in the first round of the NIT tonight, I feel like I'm ready to be done. ;-)
That's a possibility. The truck had been starting on its own, although it would take a few cranks when it had sat overnight. I had to jump it yesterday when it was colder and rainy.
No one checked anything on the truck I was picking up, but I did have to have proof of ins. and reg. for the vehicle I was driving on base. You don't need to worry about much of that if you're not going on a full on base.
I don't know how FL works, but I got a couple 3 day trip permits to...
There should be a diagram on the dash, but the here it is anyway. It surprised me at first, but isn't bad once you get used to it.

You have to push the shifter hard to the left for first and reverse.
