Tractor Supply has GL-1 in two gallon jugs for $12.00. You have to look for the Traveler brand, Ford tractor 90 wt. The jug says it is for Ford tractors year models 1936 to 1956 or something like that.
If you live in Salisbury, just get up with me any time you want. I live just North of you in Lexington. I would be glad to show you my deuce and answer any questions you might have. I am still pretty new to the deuce but I know enough to get in trouble.rofl
Shoot me a PM if you want to set...
I just had to replace the main shaft and the syncro hub for second and third gear in my deuce. I spun the keys holding the hub on......Anyways....
I got a new gasket set and rear seal for the main shaft and I have found a problem. The old rear seal is both a rubber and felt seal, but the new...
I just pulled the tranny out of my deuce last week. Another piece of advise, put a furniture dolly or small piece of plywood where your transmission will land on the ground. Hook a strap to the plywood so, when the tranny is out all you have to do is pull it out from under the truck.
Okay, here is the story. I was on my way to Fort Bragg to help a friend recover a M105. When I was about 10-15 miles from home second and third gear quit working. I could put the tranny in second or third gear and nothing would happen.

I may have to try to split that hub with a die grinder and...

I need the the main shaft and the gear that is keyed onto the main shaft under second and third gear.
If you have some good parts I am interested in them PLEASE send me a PM and we can work out a price.
Thanks again

Hey guys, I need some help here.
I have searched, until I could search no more, looking for an exploded diagram of the deuce transmission.
I have a frozen gear in my tranny and I need to make sure I am dissembling it correctly.
Thanks, Walter

If you look from the right, the third gear in, under the syncro, is my problem. The key sheared off and is wedged between the gear and the shaft.
Yes there is room to cut it but, I am trying to save everything I can. I have a really bad case of "I'm poor", so I need to do this as cheaply as possible. What I am thinking of doing is getting two pieces of threaded rod and two nuts. Feed the threaded rod through the drive shaft bolt holes...
