I fogot to update the post. I was going to talk to the parents but before I got did their house burned. I figured they have enough problems now. I got an estimate last wek for $150. This includes everything including choice of tint. Not too bad. I almost wish I had keep it.
It is my opinion that that tab gasket is bad because there is not much sealing surface between the coolant passages and the outside world. Look at the first photo and see the coolant that leaked from the stud and the coolant hole over to the fire ring (not present). When I got this truck it was...
Newest gasket has no tab that sticks out from the head like in the pic below. The new gasket has no tab lik ein the second pic. Tab = BAD. They have seperate fire rings which is bad too. Ask me how I know.
Here is mine. These are noiser than a regular soft top. That cover is thin and lets all the sound of the exhaust stack come right on in. I have plans to cover it.
Got under there for a looksie and sure nuff it is not a J180. Then I spied the sensing lead had come apart. Wow hoo fixed (for now). Took it to town to drop off a load of old roof shingles at the dump and stopped by a friends. We went for a ittle trip and ran outta fuel. I had two 5 gal cans I...
My alternator on my new to me deuce took a dump. Well it probably never did work. I don't want to fool with that piece of crap. Is this a J-180 mount? I am going to install a newer Delco of Leece in it. Thanks in advance.
Pulling is reverse is a result of trucks traveling in the same direction on a narrow trail or road with no room to turn around.
I do not believe traction has anything to do with it. It is simply the fact the t-case can not handle the loading in that direction.
I am not going to bring the Sheriff into this. They have more important things to do and they don't want to come out this way for just this. I do not think it was mal intention just like armyman says a moment of dumb butt or a puredee accident that they did not know they caused. I am not seeking...
The truck is not locked.
The kids have been out there on their property near the truck for the past couple of weeks.
I think it is a case of the kids not thinking the gun could take out the window and then when it did they thought oh crap and left.
how can I post photos?
This CUCV was mine and I sold it. I am storing it for a buddy of mine till he gets an athourization code to bring it home. Today I go down to the back lot and find it like this! The neighbors kids have been shooting BB guns down there. Makes me wonder if it was an accident of on purpose. Its...
Sorry FreightTrain thats what it came with. I am going to take it off and give it to the guy that let me borrow his trailer. I was never much on bride plates anyway. He has been looking for one for his Deuce.
It is without winch.
Me and a buddy went down to San Antonio and trailered it back.
Despite its miles it still had a slight cross hatch pattern in some of the cylinders. It had a leak in the front head. The gasket had an expansion slot in it and seperate fire rings. As you can see on of the...
+1 on not pulling out a vehicle with a M900 series in low transfer reverse. I was on ATD once in 29 palms. I was looking forward to marrying up with my wrecker there and having some fun. Some bonehead had tried to pull a 5 ton out of some sand in low reverse. He split the t-case in half. I was...
I was the winner on the $1000 deuce. It appears to be a keeper. I believe the miles to be accurate. The other was from the same unit of the Minesota NG. I saw several trip tickets to Fort Chaffee Man what a drive I bet those were. It does not appear to be rebuilt. Where are these depot tags...
