Ok I am driving to home depot for the pex tubing. I don't want to modify the system if I don't need to so the original line style is what I am looking for.

Ok I did the search, came up with an old posting from 2004 but the replys were blank others were cucv. I need to buy the plastic fuel line. I have taken it to autozone and others but all they have is rubber. Correct inner size but not outer. I watched some videos and a guy had some yellow...

Thanks man. I did see that the bracket could use a gasket as well. I ordered some gaskets from Memphis but I am not exactly sure which gaskets they are lol I just took the two they had. I am waiting on those to arrive, hopefully today. Would High temp locktite work? I have a lot I was going...

Hi guys, Just pulled the compressor from my duece. The plan is to replace all of the gaskets on the compressor and while at it clean, fix and paint anything in the general area of the compressors location. Steps so far. 1) Pull out the TM 2) Place pan, 5 gal bucket and absorbant under the...

Thank you. I know what you are talking about. I used them for fuel and oil spills when I worked on a flight line as a texaco fuel boy. I am thinking of buying a large metal pan. Filling it with Kitty litter and keeping it under my trucks when not in use. The flat pan should catch it all lol.

Hester... Good name, good looking all around. Welcome to SS.

lol That was the reaction I was looking for. Im a little dedicated to having multiple convoys and some NSA road side assistance.

lol GOOD **** ADVICE. I dont wanna jump out of a burning deuce I rather toggle. lol Its coming out this weekend. Do we know why they are bad in the Deuce but not things like the LMTV or other current trucks using them?

Sorry I never did this. I just jumped in head first. My name is Rob. Born and raised here in Monterey California. I love the CUCV but wish I had more room for more 2 1/2's lol. Restoring one M1008 and one M35A2 at the moment. Mods are all military "up to date". I wasn't going to post on this...

I took out the old "3 toggle" light switch and installed the one in the picture. Before I did so I researched issues in doing so and found they wouldnt work due to a grounding issue. The one I got was equiped with a ground so I found a good location for the new ground wire and installed the...

How about I drive up to you from Monterey and pick it up? Can you post a picture?:-P

Now now those bears are sure to run away when chased by the truck haha : ) (bears may be faster) maybe a warning pop shot lol Good luck!!!

By the way the hope you keep that truck on the farm, it has the soul of your passed loved ones watching over you.

Awesome. I just read each post start to finish. Great resurrection of your Deuce. Great job. Love the black smoke on the extended drive. This post will help me stay motivated through the weekend’s project. I am glad to know people can still "feel" for our history and this work horse of a truck...

The card is new from CUCVelectric and has/was doing good. Warthog: I had cut the blue wire going into the GPC to install a push button but ended up reconnecting it because I purchased the new GPC. I will need to check the wiring for the breaks but I should have shown me putting the truck...

Interesting. Sounds good. What is the roadside assistance like? Did the coverage come with roadside?

I am aware of the seatbelt issue but that was secondary to getting the inspection of the engine done first. The area of California I am in the Calfire trucks are about as big as the deuce. Rollover is not a stopping factor from my research and also "national guard support" in the forest fires...

These lines are actually common. Take a low pressure line off from two injectors. Bring the couplings with the line attached. Take it to napa or something to that nature, they can match the hose to the coupling. Buy enough feet to do your job and extra to keep in the truck for field repairs...

Now now I didnt say I was fibbing (I should have refraised so someone wouldnt take it the wrong way)! I actually have an aircraft hanger for it ( I just park it their during the winter and work on it at home in the summer where it is temporarily parked. They cant expect people not to drive the...

Steve you may be on to something. I have found many loose bolts running around. I find them occasionally. I will be under the truck this weekend checking all the bolts again.
