Whats the link to the writeup you did on it so I can learn the lessons beforehand

 

[fpchief]

I will do one.

I installed my Armour IR lights to the front of my Duece. Installed safe, and started paneling my 28 foot enclosed trailer to pull behind the Duece. I can see light at the end of the tunnel.

Pics? I have some of those and am deciding where to mount them at.

Adjusted the valves...do it! Smoother, quieter, more power.

Fuel filters too...and I'm sure I'm forgetting something(s)

 

[theeDIZ]

David how long did it take you to adjust the valves ? I haven't done mine yet and was curious

 

[FloridaAKM]

Please do post some pics. I have two sets and one set needs mounting, just not sure where that will be out of the way! Also, I changed out the original headlights with a set recommended here with replacement bulbs H2? H4? I can't remember. Since there are two M-105a2 trailers that have to be picked up from Gov Planet in Jacksonville & the Mt Dora MV show this weekend, there was a lot of maintenance on the fluid levels & a tube of grease that needed to be added to all the zirk fittings for all the miles to be driven! The real stinker was a tossup between the skeeters chewing on me while I worked on the truck & trying to load the 650# HDT tent for the Mt Dora show.I think I have a death wish when it comes to this hobby/obsession!

Took it out for a short 55 mile ride today to our monthly meeting! Also picked up some ramps to load our Jeep in the future!

This is the second time I've done them on a deuce, took me an hour. Not hard IMO. If you hear any telltale ticking while it's running, it needs it. I have some videos on YouTube of before and after valve adjustment.

I've also been daily driving it. Get half weird looks and half smiles, waves, and salutes.

A few pics of the ramps would sure be appreciated.

"Half weird looks, half smiles"

When/if I get myself a Deuce or 5 ton, I also intend to daily-drive it, everywhere I go. I personally enjoy being laughed at when I tell people what I plan on driving...

 

[Davis Welding]

I drive mine up and down the streets of my very small town. It has no doors, no roof, no grill/rad, no bed, no plates, no nothing..... Everyone loves it. They all honk and wave. I think it would be rude to call them all hillbillies or rednecks.... haha

 

[Gralmk]

A few pics of the ramps would sure be appreciated.

Nothing special, homemade, just a couple pieces of channel iron with a lip to lay flat on the bed and a tab to slide in the tailgate gap! They are rusty now, will clean them up when the warmer weather hits. If ya really want to see them I can get pictures in a few days!

 

[Another Ahab]

It's ALL about the pics!

So yes, please if you can find the time.
