You guys are getting to old for this.
I never have any of them problems and never will. I love my duce
and she loves me. I almost kiss her every day. Just her name M35 A2
makes me love her even more.:jumpin:
I have and never will say any thing bad about her, not even behind her back.
she is the one in a million for me.

she is like the wife I will never have.:mrgreen:

It is to bad you guys don't love yours like I do.
I hope you guys get every thing all sorted out ok.

You may think I am sick, and maybe I am, but thats why
I am the MADFARMERSSON.:driver:

Ok, I have only had my Deuce for 6 months, but I have probably hit my elbow on the door a couple of times, when turning. I am thinking I may want to upholstry the inside top of the door, so when I slam my elbow into the door, i will not hurt my elbow. Any one else have this happen? Solutions?
Thanks
Take a piece of 1" pipe insulation with the split down the length glue it down over the corner.

Well, keeping your thumbs out of the spokes, and a reinforced elbow pad on the left arm works pretty good, and it is portable, since it moves with the driver, no changes to the truck. Heavy leather gloves help off road, but takes some getting used to. A wheel knob will hurt as it comes around and catches a hand anywhere.... An elbow pad under a BDU shirt does not look too stupid, and works well.

Hope it helps.

I learned to never use my thumbs inside the steering wheel riding with someone at Haspin. After watching the wheel spin hitting a rut I saw what it would do.

Some things you learn ahead of time, sort of like Garand Thumb. (If you have shot one long enough you will know what I mean.)

No knobs either..........

Or you can fold your drivers door tight to the front fender, so you dont hit your elbow...

I saw a guy fall out of a HET once, his GL clipboard almost nailed him once he was on the ground.
