Haha I know I'm sorry I haven't had the windshield out yet. I have been cleaning up my Deuce I am selling so that has taken my spare time. I will try to pop it out soon to get a full assessment. I definitely want to purchase the metal from you and just weld in new pieces hopefully using the pot...
Good point, I must not have been thinking about that and yeah it wouldn't weigh anything. Ok cool! Let me pull the glass and you send some pics and we'll see where we are. I can paypal or however you like if that's the route I take.
Thanks!
Hmm.. I think I may take you up on that. I'm down in North Florida so shipping may be an issue. Let me pull the glass and see how bad it is and what all I may need.
Thanks!
Looks pretty similar to my roof. I already had to cut out some rust where the roof lip meets the fiberglass rear top. Had to form some crazy right angle with a bend.. Hard but fun. That came out well. Thanks for the pics and info! Every bit helps me.
Where you meaning be careful of a fire in...
Wow thank you.. I have a stretcher/shrinker and a tig and a mig machine so I have the tools to do it. Just didn't know if there were ready made panels. Thanks for the insight. I'll pull the windshield and mark the bead also. I'll post up some pics once I get the glass out. See how bad it really is.
Need help with my M1009 windshield frame repair. I need to repair the areas that have rusted through and don't know if they sell the complete panel where I can drill out the spot welds and replace the entire frame or not. How have others repaired this area? I didn't find and threads talking...
Been a while since update. Motor is still running great. No more leaks. Replaced the NP208 output seal, stopped that leak. Wired up the coolant temp gauge and it is working great. Used the tap at the front driver side of motor. Swapped out old bent tie rod for a seriously beefy one from ORD...
I'm having a similar issue and I noticed the orange wire that comes from the solenoid on the driver's side of the trans is cut and hanging. I can't find where the orange wire should go and terminate with a spade plug I'm sure but don't know the location. I don't get kickdowns from 3rd on the hwy...
Also going to sell the Ross/TRW HF542996 powersteering box I was going to use for my conversion. Don't have the time to go through with that right now.
Anymore updates on the truck or the axle swap? Love the idea of a dually cucvII, looks like you could just swap on the fenders and paint to match. Looking into getting one of these, how is the interior noise on the Hwy vs the M1009 or M1008?
Old I know but I didn't see this mentioned.
I may be crazy but I drive my deuce all the time using 2low and 2hi and rarely engage the airshift front axle other than to keep everything lubed. Granted the M35 t-case is different, the priciple is the same, much like a NP205 or 203 case.

Thank you for the replÿ. After more reading I came across a good...
