My trailer is actually 7200 lbs. The A3 did fine towing 19,200 lbs. Round trip of 166 miles. The top speed is 49 MPH. Although that’s the top speed unloaded too. Up hill is ok. It’ll downshift and just keep chugging along. Stopping is easy, I designed the brake system on the trailer. It’ll pull...

Tomorrow is test. I loaded my trailer on the back. Put another A2 on the trailer and am going to tow it around a bit. I’ve done this a bunch with my A2. Now I’ll get to see how the A3 does with a load.

Yes it is a fresh rebuild. I figure if I’m putting a new trans in I might as well use the manufacturers recommended fluid.

My trans is brand new. I just installed it. I’m runnning Allison spec trans fluid.

A3 daily ready I am now able to Drive the A3 reliably. It took 5 months and a lot of work but I have driven it to work and back a couple times. It'll be ready for paint as soon as it gets warm enough to do it. The brakes are way touchy compared to the A2. The trans downshifting will take some...

Unfortunately the title to the A3 I was supposed to get today hasn't cleared yet. So I'll have to wait until next weekend to get the truck. AceHigh anytime you want to stop by drop me a line.

Late Friday evening I got to drive my A3 around the property while sitting on a bucket. It's a massive step forward. Today I hope to install the temporary seats and get it out on the road for a test drive. On Sunday I'm going to pick up another A3. That'll put me at 4 deuces. Two A2s and two A3s.

This past weekend a little bit got done. I removed all the cracked air lines for the CTIS on the wheels and put on new airline. Checked all the connections and applied power. After a minute the system read emergency flat tire. I turned it off and back on. IT WORKS. The CTIS actually works. It’ll...

Round 4 for pictures. I am keeping the tops. I need one for the Deuce I just bought. My Nephew needs one for his deuce, and the last one is for the next Deuce I buy. The frame is solid with no rust. The back of the passenger side cab has rust. The drivers door is pretty rusty. I'll have it all...

I keep trying to post pictures. I plan on 395s. Other than that I haven’t decided what I want to do with it. I went with an A3 this time because it was cheap. I mean real cheap. And it came with three new in the box hard tops.

Well after owning 6 different A2s and settling in keeping one of them. I took the plunge and bought an A3. According to the paperwork it came with it was decommissioned in 2011. I bought it from Florida Department of Forestry with 13,146 miles on the clock. At some point it was picked up with a...
