    Deuce bumper illegal in CT

    Man, you are getting the run around! It is all luck of the draw, as depending on the number of people you talk to at the dmv, you will continue to get that same number of different answers on what the correct procedure is. All the while, there is nothing in print to back it up. Personally, I...

    Mike D's deuce recovery/modification thread

    Here is another picture as I arrived at work today. I now have full oil pressure of 30psi at hot idle on the dash sending unit, after teeing it off with a underhood mechanical gauge. I can only assume that cleaning the sending unit returned it to proper operation, as before, I was reading 0...

    Mike D's deuce recovery/modification thread

    I painted and installed the snorkel tonight. I welded the original exhaust clam shell bracket to a standard 4 incher for the snorkel. This way, it eliminates one clamp. I ordered the cap from Australia. I still need to mod the exhaust shield to fit over, and reinstall the flapper. I...

    Deuce bumper illegal in CT

    Iski, Oh man, I just spent some time reading through documents posted online regarding this VIN check, and it boils my blood all over again. The information is so ambiguous and vague, it is ridiculous. As Iski stated, it does state that "former military vehicles" needs to be vin inspected at...

    Deuce bumper illegal in CT

    The inspectors at the Wethersfield CT dmv lane are simply flexing their muscles. I had it out with the guy when I was there, and subsequently called his boss as well. Dead ends everywhere. You are there for a VIN inspection, and nothing else. There is no inspection laws prior to Registration...

    Deuce bumper illegal in CT

    I have antique as well. The dmv told me I cant haul anything, but I could never find any verbage in the dmv ct law sections that said this as well. Do you happen to know where the info exists?

    Deuce muffler option

    I like it though. At least I dont need ear protection on the highway, and my egt's remain low. I still need to paint mine and attach the snorkel to a bracket. The mesh cover will fit over it with slight modificationn so I intend to do that as well.

    Deuce bumper illegal in CT

    What did you say via pm? Did he just go in for the vin check because it was previously registered out of state? I had the same run around at the same dmv 6 months ago.

    Deuce muffler option

    I have the big aero too. It makes the cab tolerable at highway speeds. Can almost talk by yelling. I made a custom bracket for mine. I paid 80 bucks or so for it.

    Deuce bumper illegal in CT

    Is this just a vin check? I dont have time at the moment to read this whole thread, but these registration threads are usually just full of speculation and assumptions. If this isnt commercial vehicle inspection, and is antique or regular out of state vehicle, all you need to do is bring the...

    Looking for a deuce, what can you tell me about these?

    If that was in new england I wouldnt hesitate to pay 6k for the pair just from the pictures.

    Looking for a deuce, what can you tell me about these?

    In my opinion, if either truck is in decent or good condition, they would be a pretty good deal.

    Dan, back to the Meth injection. What pump did you buy? Will it fit through the mouth of a jerry can?

    Mike D's deuce recovery/modification thread

    Hitch installed. I originally intended to also support it to a crossmember as well for the braking forces, but this isnt going anywhere as is.

    Recovery of my Deuce, weekend of May 31 and June 1

    Nice truck! I suggest that you start one thread on what you do to it as time goes, so that it is easy for us to follow along!
