    M1009 fuel lines at filter?

    Believe me I have searched for awhile now to no avail, what is the bottom line for off of the stock fuel filter set up? Looks like a return line, I understand what the other two lines hook up to on a new spin on filter housing. I feel very dumb asking this. I have a WIX 24309 housing I want...

    My M1009

    I already have a nice Deuce, so I thought I needed another vehicle. One which my wife or daughter could drive easily. Out of all the Blazer's that I previewed on Tuesday I only bid on this one because it was very clean and looked like it had a nice life. My friend Kenny is going to pick it up...

    Oil leak fixed

    The gasket on the bottom of my air compressor has been leaking for awhile, I finally ordered a gasket for it and installed it this morning. All three belts were not in very good shape anymore, so I went ahead and ordered those also. Good thing I had my son to help me ( his hands are a lot...

    Rubber Rope

    My rubber rope on my M35A2 cargo cover is shot. Any ideas where I can get some? I think it was last year someone on this site had extra to sell, should've bought it then. Thanks Todd

    Air Shift Indicator Light Doesn't Work

    I have looked at all of the older posts on air shift selector switches and can't seem to find my problem. The indicator light for the air shift front axle did work for a couple of years and then it decided to go out, I checked the bulb and there is power going to the air sending unit on the...

    Air ride seats for my Deuce

    I just bought two matching air ride seats from Hribar Trucking in Sturtevant, WI. I am going to have them recovered so they don't look so out of place. My son rides with me on a regular basis and I had a chance to sit on the passenger side last summer and I must say my boy is great, he never...

    I got myself a lift

    I've had this lift intended for a pickup truck around for quite a few years. I finally got around to mounting it on my Duece. The base fits perfectly under the troop seat and also fits nicely out of the way under it. I needed to cut 5 inches out of the lift for it to fit under my cargo cover...

    Iola 2009

    My son and I will be heading to Iola again this year with my Duece. We are going to leave early Saturday morning the 8th of August. I will also be bringing 5 Michelin XL 11.00-20's with me to sell if anybody going is interested. They have minor checking.

    Installed Air-O-Matic, finally!

    I Finally installed the air-o-matic on my Duece, finished it up today. My truck obviously had this on it before because all of the holes were in the frame and inner fender and I found a regulator still attached stuffed inside the frame rail. You could still see where the steering cylinder...

    Possible weak in tank pump?

    I changed the primary and secondary filters on my Duece today. Tried to prime the system and no luck, the in tank pump does pump fuel but I am wondering if it is not enough flow. I did open the valve between the secondary filters but still no luck. How long should it take to fill the filters...

    Air-O Matic arrived!

    I just got home from work and sitting on my doorstep was the air-o-matic unit from brianrbull. I bet you the UPS guy almost had a hernia with that one. I figured it cost me $8.66 a lb delivered, not too bad considering what it is. Now I have to find time to put it on. All I have to do next...

    My daughter is going to UW Oshkosh this fall and we were in Oshkosh today and I stopped at Oshkosh Equipment to check out what they had. Some of those tractors are pretty big! No Dueces to be found!

    Upgrade brake switch vs old style switch

    I know for sure that the old style hydraulic switch is faulty. So what do you think, replace it with another switch of the same kind or an upgrade air switch? If I change to the upgrade switch can I just leave in the old switch or does a plug come with the upgrade. Also instructions are...

    New Cargo Cover

    My new to me, cargo cover. No rips or wear marks and it actually keeps the rain out. I think it makes the truck look better, now all I need is a winch. Some people think I should have duals on the rear again, but that costs a lot for four more tires like mine. If I can find some pretty cheap...

    Rear axle length

    I have my Duece parked so I have only 38 inches on the drivers side and am wondering what length the rear axle shaft is on that side, I need to replace the wheel seals. If it's any longer I will have to move to a bigger area. Thanks Todd

    Parade Pics

    I used my Deuce with my newly added receiver hitch to tow a trailer for the cross country team for the local high school. Needless to say it was the only MV in the parade. When I pulled into the staging area my daughter said everyone was quiet, probaly wondering what was coming at them. We...

    Receiver Hitch for M35A2

    I spent about three hours Friday making this receiver hitch for my Duece. I think it turned out pretty good. My son and I installed it yesterday. I think building the hitch was easier than installing it. :D :D

    Pictures from Iola

    My son Josh and I put about 300 miles on my Duece this last weekend. Both he and I had a nice weekend. Everyone we met was very friendly and offered up lots of info that I didn't know. Thanks Todd Martin
