    New Starter for CUCV: Should this happen?

    I would return the starter for replacement. Sounds like a dead spot.

    M35A3 is shimmying

    Mine all works. I have a seal or two on one axle that needs replacing,have axle venting. Fact is they aren't perfectly balanced so you'll always have some vibration, depending on the road too it's more or less noticeable. Good luck, Hope it's not a bad bearing. Expensive!

    M35A3 is shimmying

    Is it violent? You'll have some shimmy from all that crap on the wheels. This isn't your dad's station wagon. I believe I've heard the term death wobble driving a deuce..... Other than that, time to check bearings and all the suspension components. These things shake. Part of the thrill factor...

    Break tire bead by lowering deuce on tire?

    Hey guys wondering if I should/can break a tire bead jacking up my deuce, putting the rim and tire under the tire and lowering it? I got my spare back from a shop with new oring and grommet, the oring is leaking. They did the first one perfect, but this one is a redo. Want to try my own hand...

    Deuce on a rollback

    I just had my car towed last week via rollback, I asked the driver what the capacity was, he said 12K, guess it depends on the rollback as far as weight limit.

    mn guys. Registration? what plates on your deuce?

    I'm hoping. Got a few fellows on here within truckin distance, be interesting to see us all converge on a place to eat and shoot the %^&t. Two Pete's already.

    I got the plates exchanged, good to go now till feb next year. The Y plates they gave me are noncommercial 21,000# sticker(registered for 19,200). Happy for that cause I could already see getting stopped and harassed with commercial plates not being a commercial enterprise. All good. Ironic...

    mn guys. Registration? what plates on your deuce?

    Well I guess if the insurance company says ok..... I'd still be worried about that should you get in a major accident, then the insurance investigators show up to find it isn't a chevy. did you buy that with a title that said Chevy? Whoever titled it committed fraud. What weight did it get...

    Guess my cheap m1009 isnt going to be so cheap

    Thanks guys, I'm gonna shop around. I have the skill level, just don't have the ambition to do it myself. The quote was just for replacement of the seal. They said 8 hours of labor! Thought that sounded a bit high. Good call on getting it rebuilt while it's out. I was fretting on whether to...
