    New member, few questions about deuce

    Matt; One reason why your Deuce has low hours is probably because the motor has been swapped out. You can figure 50 mph times hours, hmm, let's see 418 hours so about 20900 miles tops could have been put on the truck with this motor (not including stopping, warming up or cooling down the turbo...

    Log Books

    LD; My truck came with a set. I guess I got lucky.

    LD; You're probably right!

    1C Turbocharger

    DS; You're right. the 1D is physically larger, but all the holes and mounts are the same so you can swap one for the other. I have a 1D and love it. Without any modifications I get 8.4 mpg. I like quiet, um, er, well as quiet as I can get that is. The 1D does not whistle, but it has plenty...

    1C Turbocharger

    LD; You are correct. Not only is there a difference in sound, there's a difference in size as well. The impellers inside the 1C are smaller and travel far beyond the speed of sound and in effect rip the air causing the "whistle". The 1D is larger and does not have the same effect. P.S.-...

    Windshield Frame

    Guys; Mine went down and up just like it was new from the factory. I guess it's all in who used the truck..... Or maybe it's in who lowers and raises the windshield<img src="emoticons/icon_smile_wink.gif" alt="Wink">!

    Windshield Frame

    LD; Yep, that's it alright! Before I put a steel top on mine I checked to see if that was the case and it was.

    hoops etc required....

    att; You need the elbows and bows for the Deuce? I can get them easy enough. I just want to be sure we're speaking the same English (or is it American?).

    Looking to maybe sell. What is it worth?

    Tex; $2000 should have the set sold in a matter of hours if not a day or two. You said cheap? Well, that's cheap alright! I'd be tempted to start closer to 3k and let them barter down........

    Who broke the site?

    LJ; I thought we all did that, or I just forgot to mention it. It saves me time getting here. I tend to make the mistake in believeing if I do it(whatever "it" is) everyone does. Thanks for reminding me!

    Deuce Tips and Tricks!

    LH; They are 11 inch blades. They are the smallest blades available that will fit on the Deuce. If I could locate 10 inch blades I would use them too. However, no civy 10 inch blades are available from Anco that I'm aware of.

    Deuce Tips and Tricks!

    Wiper blades Anco 25-11 are available with an adapter kit from AutoZone. You need to remove the curved tip of the arm to allow the adapter kit to work. $10.50 or so for both blades and you're rolling!

    Civy wiper blades available from AutoZone!

    Hi Everyone! Necessity is the mother of creativity! After a SEVERE downpour here in SW Indiana I got beyond frustrated while going to work at AutoZone from these useless wipers. So, on lunchbreak I went to the wiper display and started to pilfer through the inventory<img...
