Thanks guys!;-)

Is there a difference in the sideracks and troopseats between a regular and a dropside bed? Are they interchangeable between those beds?

I live in a rural area, so - yes!

I will post a pic of the dataplate when I get the chance.

After over three years of lurking, reading, learning and keeping on top of what is for sale where I finally pulled the trigger. It ain't home, yet and I will need your help shortly with some recovery planning. For the time being I am just looking for a way to wipe the ear-to-ear grin off my...

I need to bring a Deuce up from Virginia. I have insurance for it. Many states have one form or other of temporary registration or trip permits that allow a motor vehicle to be removed from the state after a sale. I could no find coherent information about Viginia, other than a three day permit...

One good exercise is to have a corner element made of two or four sheets of plywood (standing up). Mark a short length of lane and put the "corner" at the end, simulating a building, loading dock etc. The objective is to back the truck into the "corner" as closely as one dares without hitting...

:funny:

I am curious - so please do not take offence: To me, a dump truck is one of the most useful MVs imaginable. If it is an original dump truck, it is even sweeter. What is the reasoning behind ripping the dump bed off (probably removing the cylinders, PTO etc. as well?) and "dumbing" the truck...

For a second, I thought that your Deuce was a camouflaged combat vehicle...way cool...until I realised that the interior shot is not from the Deuce box, but from the LAV!

Geez, guys, really. I was all pumped up about buying my first Deuce and almost hit the BuyItNow button and you come up with all these comments. Now I am a shaking wreck, not knowing what to do. Sure an 8-cylinder Multi must be better than the standard 6 that all you guys have? You jealous, or...

I do not know what else to do as a tall person on long trips in a cramped cab. Although not on a Deuce, I have used this method often on other trucks. I would say that it is inherently dangerous - but with many things that are potentially dangerous, if one is mindful and pushes the throttle in...

devilman96 devilman 96: It is refreshing to read a level-headed and honest response. All the info is on the table for everyone to make an informed decision.

Shades of black relate to the fuel quantity injected in relationship to the air available for combustion. In the absence of computer controls with a "mapped" diagram for fuel injection, it is easy to achieve a mixture that is a bit too rich, for example WOT under full load. Black is basically...

Recovry4x4 - so true. I did a bit of self-reflection and admit that this is very much what I do when I am out there. Many infractions I encounter are minor and I tend to be more lenient with people that are straight and honest (as opposed to fake) and I certainly follow "the book" when...

The following are just educated guesses, nothing more. When you drive a vehicle through water, the moving parts, such as hubs etc. are warm from the drive and then get cooled by the water. Because all these assemblies also contain air, the cooling and "shrinking" of the air leads to water being...

Ahm, no, that is merely the wisdom that comes with a certain age! :wink:

Folks, you fail to see the OPPORTUNITIES that arise from reduced military spending! PM the Deuces and, when the time comes, contract them back to the military! Save the money and buy more Deuces afterwards. Ok, yes, I am joking...but only partially. This very same situation is currently going...

You might be a Redneck if...you have a pingpong ball duct taped to you fuel sending float!

Nice job with the painting. The sheet metal looks good and the paint is coming out well. You can, of course, do whatever you want; it is your truck. I, too, believe that you have a rather rare truck that is made even rarer by its completeness and good condition. Whoever had it last did not even...
