Storm came through this evening knocking out tomorrow's attempted tow. Will see what Saturday looks like.

Thinking again so bear with me please. Love the looks of super singles on the Deuce. There are several stacks of mounted wheels and tires possibly MRAP. I know there are two LMTV s with wheels and tires on them. I see that adapters are made to go from what I got to what I need but I don't know the difference if there is one. Some help on identifying the correct wheel or are they the same as long as they are the 20"? Should have taken pictures of the stacks. They have the tire inflator thingies on them.

I did some looking on the web and found the measurements for MRAP wheels. Hopefully tomorrow we will be in 109 retrieve mode and I will see what the stacks of wheels are. Maybe make a deal with the rest of my grand kids lunch money for a a set if they are the righ ones.

Ok boys and girls or however you choose to identify today. We had a great day today on the playground wrestling with everything that is heavy, flat or stuck. Then we spent the afternoon letting the tail wag the dog on the way home. What we learned in class was; tow vehicle probably needs to weigh at least as much as the towed vehicle, pentle hook needs to be able to rotate, for our particular fiasco, DO NOT TIE THE STEERING WHEEL DOWN and have another person steer the towed vehicle. There is a reason you dont go faster than 20mph. And finally, if you have enough crap laying around you can probably make something work if you want to bad enough. Class over for today and everyone made it home safe.

Looks as though the wheels and tires are LMTV and I can't find anyone that still makes an adapter so guess we will work with the 9:00s for now. Like she's rippin and roaring ready to drive under is own power right now hehehe

Looks like you made it home safe. Yeah, for all the comments we all made I guess we skipped over the idea that the towing vehicle needs (should be) bigger than what you were towing. Best part is that nothing bad happened - AND - you won't likely do that again. The rotating pintle is definitely a plus like you said too.

I see that your sidekick had his position in the co-pilot's seat.
He doesn't look at all stressed either.

LOL Once you get all the seat cushion foam out of your but crack from it trying to eat the seat every time you looked in the mirror and prayed you could get stopped !!!! It looks like your feeding the co driver cbd snacks for that trip by the closed eyes ! lmao

Thats why I asked if you were going to lift the front end up.

Yes I see the definite advantage to lifting the front. But that would have taken away the experience and pucker factor from the day hehe.

Been there, done that. When your 19-20 it looks like real fun!

Still sounded fun at 58 hehehe. But I refuse to grow up. Too many old folks in the world.

Pulled the injectors and poured mystery oil on top side to soak a few days before trying to roll the crank over.

 

[m715mike]

@Rhino 5/4 - I agree that the towing vehicle should weigh as much or more than the towed vehicle. So, once you get that Deuce running, you should be good to go back and get several more!!!! Ugh… that is… until you get the urge for a 5-Ton!

For future reference.. marvel will help.... but that is not its forte'. Soaking in Lubra Molly Diesel Purge , seafoam or pint of official carb/parts cleaner... the type they pump thru a parts cleaning sink, will do more good IMHO. Been there bent that.

Use that stuff to soak the injectors or pour in top of cylinders? I put the marvel in cylinders to soak top side of rings and pistons. I haven't done anything with injectors
