    deuce exhaust sound...HELP!

    id say a BURNT valve rather then a stuck valve, at low rpm you will get the dead cylinder hence the sound and the vibration, as the rpm picks up there is enough rpm to give some compression and a hot cylinder 211 you beat me to it

    super single Wreckers, lets see them!

    i would NOT go to BIG tires on the m62, they get you going faster and look good but you will be hurting for power, that is why id guess the military put 1100s on in the first place, i have talked to several people ( Tim for one) that have put big tires on and are not happy with them and are...

    M816 sprag

    the air shut off is a mwo, this was so the 5Ts could be towed without the front axle being engaged, it does work, the front axle free wheels, the 819 has a air switch that cuts the air, and YES you can get stuck with the air shut off, but you dont need to ask me how i KNOW :oops: a deuce air...

    NHC 250 5 Ton performance

    my 819 with stock 1200s does not like long hills, at times droped into 3rd, the problem is the crap trans, a 4 speed with od., the hole between 3rd and forth is so bad , you are over tacking or luging. a 8 or ten speed or a aux. box behind the xcase would make a lot better road driving truck
