Heading northbound on I-75 MM 289 I just passed a broke down southbound Deuce. Nobody was around and the truck had an orange sticker on it. Looks like FHP had been there to tag it. Anybody here need help, I'm located at MM 301 let me know (813) 380-9262
Dodge powerwagon
Not my truck. I was asked that I pass it along. I met the guy a few times. I haven't seen the truck and I don't know anything about it. Good Luck!!
I figured if I waited long enough, one would rear is ugly head one day and yesterday was the day. I got a PTO and everything from the radiator forward. I'm very excited. It needs some scrapping and some rust control, but its all pretty solid. This one came off of a M35A3 so it had all of the...
Congrats,
To the "person" that got my truck today. Cape Canavral Lot 1953. I hope it is as good as it looked. You have deeper pockets that me.
Congrats again.
My daughter works at an ice cream parlor in Spring Hill, Florida. Tuesday nights they have a car show. She has been trying to get me to take the deuce for a couple of weeks. Finally, I had time to go and I took the deuce. Unfortunately it rained and was wet. BUT, the turn out was the most...
I've done a search and can't find what I'm looking for. What is the weight for a M813 on the data plate? I know a Deuce is about 13,000# what is a M813??
Thanks
I found this the other day. I was talking to a guy that was around the area and got the owners name and number. As far as I'm concerned, this owner is on crack. From what I could see this truck is missing both inner dualies on front rear axle and flat tire on said axle, broken drivers door...
I decided to see if I could get the wheels off here at the house, before I had trouble on the road. Smart Idea! I thought so. Anyway, I read the tech manual and found that the rear inner wheels have a lug stud that the "other" end of the lug wrench should take off. Well I have no handle for...
I've got a dumb question. I've been filtering WVO for a little while and have a good stock pile. I have got a bunch of greases and fats left over from the filtering. Is there anything to do with this stuff other than put it back in the grease pits or is there something else useful I could do...
I've been reading up on WVO and Diesels. And will start running my Deuce on a mixture when I get it on the road. But, one question I have.... Why can you run a mixture of WVO and gasoline in a gas engine? I understand that you can clog up the injectors, but what if it is a carburator motor...
I'm doing a little research before I actually need it. (go figure) Does anybody have pic's showing the correct way a tow bar should be attached? Also, I read somewhere that the front wheels should be off the ground???? How do axle clamps work?? I guess I'm a visual guy. Thanks guys
I was wondering if someone had a picture of a complete tool rack for a M35A2. My deuce came with a couple of tools with it, but I don't know where they go. And I don't know what I am missing. This is the rack above the spare tire. If this isn't the tool rack, what is it. I am still learning.
Here's a dumb Question. I need to replace a couple of wheel cylinders. As I have half the wheels off, I would like to rotate and do some wheel switching around.
Will standard 2 ton jack stands hold up if I was to do one side at a time. One stand per Axle?
Hey Guys,
I have been lurking around here for awhile and learning as much as I can. I have been keeping my eye open and was looking for a Deuce, but figured I'd never find one. Well that changed on Thursday when I found one about 70 miles from the house. Went to look at it today and...
I have been looking for a Deuce that has a winch already installed. But I found a truck that may work for me, although it has no winch. I scoured the search trying to find this subject and can't find anything. (or I can't operate the search)
Can a winch be installed on a non winch truck...
Not that I'm in any hurry, but I was looking for some advice. Is it better to looking at the GL for a deuce or better to see what comes up through a private sale. I am new to all this and was just wondering.
I know there is some paperwork to get straight with the GL, but how much of a...
Hey Guys,
I've been thinking about getting a 2.5 ton Duece. I need one like a hole in the head, but I think they are neat. What do I need to know?
Which ones are better than others?
What should I look at when looking at one?
What kind of problems will I face if I get one?
I'm not...
