    Price check - axle seal kit

    I paid $122.70 for 6 inner hub seals, 4 outer hub seals, 2 front axle shaft oil seals, and 6 axle flange gaskets. That was the best price I could find. I'm bout to do my front end and install the silicone boots when I get the time.

    New Tires for the Deuce

    I agree. I like the NDT's, but I like radials also. I haven't had any problems with my old NDT's, can't wait to put these new ones on.

    New Tires for the Deuce

    I was wanting to go with radials but the price was more than I could afford. I'd been searching for tires for awhile, my old ones are almost slick on the back. These tires will do for now and when I wear them out, maybe I can get radials.

    New Tires for the Deuce

    Yea thats a good load of tires for that F150. I had my dad go pick them up for me, since I'm at Fort Benning working. He picked them up first thing this morning. I talked to him earlier and he already had 5 of the old tires broke loose from the rims. We should be able to get all them done and on...

    New Tires for the Deuce

    Finally got around to buying some tires for my deuce. I had them picked up from Gensco Tires in AL. I bought 11 of the 11.00x20 tires. Also got tubes and flaps for all of them. I see a project for me when I get home. 8-)

    Oil Choices - Recommendations?

    Did a quick search on google and synthetic will burn, but it's flash point depends on how much it is broken down due to usage, thats all I found at the moment.

    Oil Choices - Recommendations?

    I use Rotella 5W40 synthetic in my pickup. Last time I changed oil in it, I poured it into my deuce and it ran fine. I don't know if your suppose to burn synthetic or not. I haven't done any research on it. I'm sure someone here has done some kind of research tho.

    Oil Choices - Recommendations?

    Can't go wrong with any of them 3 oils. I serviced semi trucks and them were the 3 brands we used. Of the 3 oils Delvac and Rotella were neck and neck with Delo not far behind. We serviced many of the large OTR companies trucks, like Werner, USA, TMC, etc. The companies would have the brand they...

    Generator

    Yes, it could have caused some damage if I hadn't noticed it. I'd hate to have to put a radiator in the truck. I had replaced my coolant hoses a few weeks ago and changed my fuel filters while I was at. Had the generator off then and didn't notice anything wrong then. Nut was tight, but it could...

    Generator

    I noticed my generator pulley wobbling when I changed the engine oil just the other day and finally got to take it off and see what was wrong. Well it looks as if maybe the keyway must have broke and sheared off. Generator charged fine and never had any problem with it not charging. I'm pretty...

    Deuce is not working with me!!!

    I'm running my deuce on bout 90 percent WMO at the moment. Just the oil I'm using is thinned down with gas. My truck cranks up just fine when its real cold, my intake heater does work either. I would try what clinto suggested and see what happens. My next fill up will be more like 70percent WMO...

    Civilian 24 volt alternator install

    I'm looking forward to this upgraded. I just order mine from spider marine. Alternator with pulley was just $134 shipped. Hope to have it installed sometime next week. This snow has made a mess down here, so I doubt I'll recieve it this week.

    DOT-5 from JCWitney

    I bought the North American NA40 DOT 5 from Amazon. It was way cheaper than going and buying it at a local auto parts store.

    Rear transmission seal

    Here's a pic of the forward/ reverse shaft oil seal that came out of my trans. The second one you can kinda see the rubber section and the felt section of the seal. Sorry for the bad pics, took them with my phone.

    Rear transmission seal

    I have yet to replace the rear main seal in my trans but I do have a seal for it. The seal I have is a new style seal that is only a rubber inner and no felt as you describe in your old one. I do know the forward/ reverse shaft oil seal that came out of my trans was twice the thickness and had a...

    bad wheel cylinders

    Update on the wheel cylinders. The driver side wheel cylinder was pitted and I have a new wheel cylinder to replace it. The passenger side wheel cylinder was good and needed a rebuild. I had my local Carquest to get the wheel cylinder rebuild kits and picked up a honing tool. Carquest rebuild...
