    High Priced Deuce!

    Considering what it would cost you to build an equivalent truck it is still a good price! Just compare it to what $11K to $13K will buy you in an "everyday ordinary" pick-up truck. I know that I've spent many more $$ for a much lesser vehicle!! What did YOUR "every day car" cost?? With only...

    Mislabeled truck?

    I saw that too! (It popped up on the SS "teaser" window!) I figured that it was just a picture swap error, & that the ACTUAL truck is probably something comepletely different. "Caveat emptor"

    how to tell sprag or air?

    I AGREE that we all need to remember that these are 13000lb vehicles. GOOD POINT! :-D I'm thankful that this SS site is here to better educate owners on the proper care & use of these vehicles. This helps to keep the roads safe for everyone!! (Unfortunately we can't expect to reach...

    how to tell sprag or air?

    Wow "Speddmon"! Were we having a bad day when you 1st responded?!? :shock: Too much caffeine that day?!? Let ME be the 1st to say, "Give him a break!". After all, his SS-ID IS "DeuceNewbie", so it is completely understandable that he might not be 100% comfortable with the search function, or...

    Replace Rear Crankshaft Seal?

    You SHOULD replace the pilot bearing while you are in there also.....

    Just Ran Through the Pool Today!

    Yeah I did notice that the Deuce stalled a bit at the far end of the pool & then later shot a bit of steam out of the exhaust stack! I figure it must have "swallowed" a little of the water during the swim!

    How do you change a tire

    "WOW!" Sounds like that was a close call!! You were lucky!! I think most of us have a close call story or two that we could share. I'm sometimes simply AMAZED that I somehow survived my youth! SOMEONE must have been watching out for me, cuz I did a lot of things that should have had me...

    What the heck is it? (evaporator covers)

    Pictures & dimensions might help...... Probably could have MULTIPLE USES as either covers, containers, heat shields, patching panels, etc.

    How do you change a tire

    Yes, you are correct! True "Split Rims" are different & are MUCH MORE DANGEROUS! Many tire shops won't even touch these anymore, so probably best to use the correct terminology if you are calling around to find a tire shop to mount a tire on your "multi piece rim"!! Otherwise you might get a...

    4 wheel drive not engaging

    THANKS for the explanation! Typically whenever I open the drain petcock valves on my '71 M35A2's air tanks the inside tank expels some moisture, while the outside tank just blows air. NOW I understand why! My '52 GMC XM211 also has dual air tanks, & unfortunately the inside tank has a stuck...

    How do you change a tire

    Unless I was planning on mounting a new tire I'd just mask it (using a very sturdy mask material), blast it (avoiding the rubber), and repaint it. Every time you dismount a tire you risk damaging the tire. Especially with an older tire that is less flexible. & Especially if you have never...

    Check your VENTS!!

    What do you mean?? Ignore the whining? (gearbox or tires) Ignore the screaming? (C-Turbo) Keep it because you've spent a lot of money on it and can't afford to get rid of it & acquire another one? Drive it once every month or two? (& maybe on your birthday, anniversary, & New...

    Transfere Case Oil

    As long as it is MT-1 and a suitable viscosity you should be OK. IF you are losing sleep over it just drain it & put GL-1 or MT-1 in there. Capacity is only 7quarts. Not a big deal. "When in Doubt, Drain it Out!" GL-1 is CHEAP at Napa....
