    Quieting those rattles!

    I used old truck inner tubes to seal the little holes in the cab. I just cut out pieces of the inner tube to make patches of the size and shape that I wanted and then sprayed the patch with 3M spray on adhesive. Let it get tacky and then stuck it where I wanted it. That was two years ago and...

    2nd gear starts??

    You will find that you start in both depending on the situation. Unloaded and ready to get home will find you leaving that red light in 2nd with no problem. It'll catch quick and jump right out if you know what you are doing. No slippage. Loaded with any kind of significant weight use 1st...

    stove for tent

    I have one of these. Works like a champ! It'll run you out of the tent if you stoke it way up and leave the vent wide open. Montana Elk hunting snow up to your knees and night time temps around 0*. Cozy tent though! http://www.kwikkamp.com/octagon-stoves.cfm The inferno version is the one...

First day took it all apart (Grill removal, radiator removal, belts removed, hoses removed, water jackets [aluminum things on top of heads] removed and the gasket material cleaned off. Then ran down to Stuart Hose in Fort Worth to get the T-Bolt...

    Hose Job

    I agree wreckerman. I am a little nervous about that. The members on our lease all keep vehicles out there but they aren't six wheel drive army trucks. My plan it to take out the center link between the batteries and chain the steering wheel when I am not there. I can't think of much more I...

    Hose Job

    New fuel, oil and air filters last year and not much driving since. Had a full tank of fuel so just dropped in the new pump. No gunk dumpage this time. Heater hoses are in pretty good shape also easy to get to so they don't scare me as much as far as long trips and then sitting for a while...

    In Tank Fuel Pump popping fuses

    My fuel pump is blowing fuses as soon as I install them. I pulled it today and plan to tinker with it this evening. Going to series a couple batteries together and see what I can get it to do. What do you guys think? Am I just wasting my time or is there any chance that I could breathe some...

    got my first deuce how bad did i get burned?

    One five gallon bucket of gear oil and a small hand pump will get you home. I had the same type situation when I brought mine home. I wound up paying for a 100 mile taxi ride a plane ticket and a hauler. After I got it home and had time to really look at the situation It was plain that all I...

    Changing hoses

    I am working on changing all the belts and hoses on the Deuce and replacing all the hose clamps with T-Bolt hose clamps. That said I need to know if any of you have a better way to get the hose between these two pieces without taking off the valve covers. I have the new valve cover gaskets on...

    Compressor Pulley

    OK good advice from all. I am normally a big believer in the right tool for the job but I am a little pressed for time on this deal. Gonna give the pipe wrench a try first and then after I screw up the pulley I'll call memphis for a new pulley and order the wrench from RDM. Wish me luck
