    Does this go on a vehicle? They don't seem very strong if they hold up netting.

    What is this?

    A friend has a plastic "sign" looking thing that has what looks like 3 flat green bowling pins that are ~3 foot in length. They are attached at the bottom and can fan out. I saw these somewhere on here but now I cannot find them. I thought they were some kind of signaling device. Sorry no...

    Practical uses for a Deuce

    First, welcome aboard! If you do a search for "uses", you should be able to come up with some good threads. I do not have a practical use for mine, so I bought a second truck that was bobbed, that is more practical to me. I just think the trucks are cool and I like the history.

    Legal bumper height?

    Will give him a call monday. Last I heard, they are illegal in IL. (deuces) and it is a criminal offense, not just a ticket. However, there may be a loop hole as long as you have a D plate or higher on your truck. This does mean semi-annual safety inspections, 55mph max speed on interstates...

    Heater installation PICs?

    Stock Deuce..Anyone haul a 12k load on regular basis?

    The truck would probably do it, but it would not be the safest. How fast do you plan to go while being loaded? Are you just going to creep up and down the hill? I would go down to a 1000 gallon tank and have the brakes checked really well. Also there is now roll over protection in these.

    Multi-fuel governor drift

    I would think fuel filters as well. I don't think the in tank fuel pump would be the problem since the injection pump is strong enough to pull fuel from the tank by its self. Replace your filters one at a time starting with the closest to the tank, then moving towards the motor. It could be...

    Spring Seat - Shock

    Great, I'll get one. Anyone know what the shocknumber that is used on the front of a deuce? I am going to put a set on the back of my bobbed deuce (has front springs), and since there is free shipping on all shocks I thought I would order all three together. Thanks again.

    M37 Driveability

    I have an M37, an M35, and an M35 bobbed. My M37 has 11.00x16 michelins, a must in my opinion (see my albums). I love driving the M37 however, I would not take it on the hiway again. I was getting around 7mpg, no seatbelt, and a top speed of 54. I could tell the motor did not like it, seems...
