G749 Rubber flex lines Now I know what you're talking about. Topo has you all squared away. It's too bad you're so far away from a brake shop. They'd just match your length and put the correct ends on so you could just remove and replace all you rubber. I don't know enough about the "Axle Vent...

I missed that brake-line follow-up,,,,,, picture postin' always wakes me up...... I took my lines to Edmonton Brake and Clutch and handed them to a girl.....:rolleyes:so any brake line fabricating shop can do them. Who's close? Meet you in Milwaukee!

I took mine to a brake shop and they made up some new ones. When dealing with the urge to stop, new rubber is always top.

Not sure what it's for but if we bolt it on over the muffler we could warm up pizza on it.:grin: Any idea what the truck had on the back before? I'm still hoping for truck pictures, spring can't come quick enough.

Things come apart easier when they're frozen. We're hanging around -20c, -4f and hiding indoors. Good to see some progress. Have you got replacement parts?

G-749 Re-build Project Phases The guru that helped me with the 'catastrophic' portions of the re-build showed us a nice tip on removing the front axles. AXLES The front axles have 2 additional threaded holes in the cap. Once your bolts are out of the axle cap, insert 2 correct size bolts into...

Ahhhhh, pictures! Soothing. Nice straight fuel tank hot digity dog. You have some fender work as usual with that high tech skirt fold trapping dirt in just the right places. The truck looks real clean and much better then others I've seen. Seeing a white truck on stand brings back lotsa...

Welcome aboard Nightfisher! While some guys are putting their trucks to bed, others are still working on getting them running and adding cabs, awesome. It's going to be a g-749 good year. I sent you a PM with some info about firing up a thread and posting some pictures if you have time to...

Colors of the G749 If you get a green deuce you'll look like a traffic light, red-yellow-green.:D

White Un trucks Great picture of the mechanic in the Catman pose. I see where he gets his name. The M135 is the only vehicle I drove in the bush without brakes. We were careful and respected hills and stopping distances and never really pushed it...... We select low range, point it down hill...

First drive Pictures? Catman twistin' wrenches? Video? Ya went for a ride without us?

Tune up G749 Last time I saw Catman he had a glass of wine in his hand and a grin from ear to ear singin' Hotel California. Well........ it's the last time I remember seeing him. When you find an appropriate gauge battery cable wire, you can cut it to length and put your own ends on it to make...

Box off maintenance That motor looks complete, sweet. Is the fuel tank/system in good shape? Prior to firing I added an in-line fuel filter in front of the "micro filter/screen" in the fuel line inlet on the carb, just in case. The little screen in the carb was plugged solid so had I not...

G 749 m135 PICTURES, now I can follow along. Mine was virgin white when I bought it too. Leaving the Just married sign on the back justifies tying a dozen 45 gallon drums behind the Deuce, drivin through town honkin the horn. You gotta do it once before you paint over it. I must say that...

Frame length Okey Dokey, I took pictures that showed 13" of frame in front of the forward love handle, lower bolt. Great pictures that clearly showed the winch bolts, bumper bolts and the easiest spot to cut off a big bulky bumper right below the cover surrounding the area where your 'new...

Bumper cut, I'll get you a measurement tomorrow night if someone doesn't beat me to it. Might not be too bad, looks like they cut behind the bumper brackets. The winch holes appear to be there. It would be ideal if there was a bumper laying around with some brackets still bolted to it. You...

1953 GMC M135 6x6 Gigity Welcome aboard! I can only guess the mods will generously slip your thread into "The Early Deuce" Forum, and we thank them either by another post or by clicking "Thank" on the bottom right of each thread. There are not enough 'Thank you' buttons for all that is...
