Hi All,
I see alot on here and on ebay when people say their truck was overhauled in let's say 1990 by the military. How do I know if mine was, is there sticker somewhere's or something? I can find anything on my 1973 bobbed AM General, the odometer says around 10K miles, the tach doesn't...
Hi Alex,
Hope you enjoy the site like I do, I'm new to the MV thing too just bought a bobbed deuce about a month ago. Loving every minute of it.

Kano Labs (same guys that make Kroil penetrating oil) has a line of rust preventives and dissolver. I was just looking for the same thing and ran across it, if their rust stuff is anywhere as good as Kroil penetrating oil sounds like a good bet (btw I don't work for these guys). Here is the...
I've been waiting all week for the pics, thanks.
Can't wait to see them on your bobber. I'm hoping these adapters are economical so I can do the same to my bobber.

The gladhand that is still there is on the drivers side. I took it apart again today and tried to see if there is enough room to cut off the end and try again but there isn't. I tried re-assembling and cross threaded the darn thing. So I'll be off to the parts store and see what i can find...
The truck was bobbed by the previous owner and I can see where the old line for the second gladhand is still there but disconnected and crimped off near the back of the truck. The leak is in a compression fitting where the gladhand is attached. I took it apart and didn't see any cracks etc...
Hi All,
Still new to the M35 bobber I bought about a month ago, loving every minute of it.
Anyhow I have a pretty bad air leak coming from the gladhand fitting (my truck only has one) I'd like to replace with the plastic, polyurathane, nylon air hose I have found that people use for air ride...
Nope nothing in the back of the truck just the spare. The fellow said he used springs out of a C60 or C70 truck, maybe that could make it sit lower in the back? Thanks for the psi advice, I'll try lowering it down a bit at a time.
Hi All,
Got my deuce about 3 weeks ago, loving every minute of it too!!
Anyhow, it's a bob job and running 14.00 20 tires on deuce wheels, the driver's front rubs on the steering component that is inside that fender well, any ones else have this with the 48" tall tires? Also I'm running about...
I talked with fellow that owns it and he runs the crude oil in all of his diesels and has for a long time so that eased my worries along with the comments from you guys.
The guy I'm buying it from seems like a very nice guy and very helpful and he did mention if he doesn't know post it here on...
Hi All,
I'm new here live in Towanda, PA (anyone close?).
Well I bought a bobbed Deuce on ebay, probably paid too much but it is pretty close to me and already shortened.
Question: the fellow that owns it has been running crude oil for fuel, he has several of these and apparently has been using...
