    deuce on ebay - completely rebuilt with 'D' motor

    What do you think of this one? I was going to bid, but decided to see if anyone else was either. Looks like I waited a tad too long. Is the 'D' turbo motor a good one? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1,1&item=4598463074&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT

    Do you need a set of 9 wheels?

    Could the rings be used off of an old set of wheels? Like the wheels currently mounted on a deuce? Or will they need to be new? Learning new things all the time. thx. jim

    Stupid question time...

    G744, Thx for that. Which lever engages the front axle? Again, sorry for the stupid questions. And theortically you can have either 4 wheel drive (rear) or 6 wheel drive (front and rear) correct? Does disengaging the front wheels help any with fuel economy or is it so minor it doesn't...

    starting advice

    OK, it's time for me to ask a really stupid question again. Why hasn't anyone installed an oil pressurizing unit in their deuce? You flip a switch, a motor comes on and pressurizes the motor (the gauge shows it) and THEN you start the truck? This is old hat to trucking companies and drag...

    Stupid question time...

    OK, I've been reading here a while and I have what is probably a stupid question. I've read all about the transfer case (air assist and normal and REB conversion kits) being either high or low. Can the truck be run without the front axle engaged? I just haven't come across that info yet...

    kcgonzo on ebay

    packman, WELCOME! Apparently I read this one first. You will want to go into your profile and add your location, which you've already told us. I ebay quite a bit and have since '99. I don't know about this particular seller. As you can see, he's fairly consistent with 'as advertised' stuff...

    muffler

    Gerhard, I really like what you've done. That's one of the reasons I like 'hanging out' here. SO much knowledge. Bjorn, I liked what you've done as well. Didn't you post a couple more pix of that set up in another thread? So much knowledge, so little time to absorb it all. Keep up the...

    armament for MV's...

    Or, go for a real one... Yes, large NV mounted to it. Yes, that's a thirty sticking out the front passenger window. Yes the fifty is real. A hoot to shoot, as the truck inches back. Mel used to have TWIN FIFTIES on the rear, but it kept pulling up on the mount, so he stepped down a little.
