I agree, I think it is your stabilizer. My buddy had the same problem. Fairly easy fix.

Is this truck a turbo? I thought you mentioned it had an LD465 which means no turbo? If I recall the LDT or LDS are the turbo'd engines.

PM'd you for a socket as well.

Can a 5 ton be had for $3000.00? I have not found one for less than $6000. (that drives anyway).

I went to NAPA to try and get one and they guy could not find anything??? Maybe I should just order off line.

We'll be looking forward to more PICs. Nice truck!

Thanks! That is what I was looking for. I was guessing around 11k pounds. I just was not sure about the load limit. I wonder if maybe adding some air bags would help with the squating under a heavy load, while not make the ride too stiff? Anyone ever look into this?

I get about 10mpg on my stock deuce. I'm guessing that a boobed deuce weighs about 11,000 lbs with 14x20s w/ow. That is two CVCU's in shear weight. I think the bobber would be a better "ultimate off-road recovery vehicle". You will be able to pull alot more out with it. And in saving a...

From what I understand, the internals are the weak point. Adding much more boost and it will probably through a rod. These are not like the 5.9s.

Now I will have to get a CD. Then just find a place to print them all off and bind them for cheap.

That is a good deal. What does the crane alone weigh? I want one too.

There are several on Ebay at any given moment. Welcome.

Does anyone know the capacity of the two axles or of the two front springs? I don't think it is going to be very much.

It seems that minus the one axle and a few less pounds on the remaining axel would just cut the load rating in half. But I did not think about the front springs being used. I know the tire rating will not be the weak point. Has anyone loaded a bobbed deuce down with a load?

Looks real nice!

Anyone with a bobbed deuce know what their truck weighs? And is the weight limit simply cut in half (minus one axle)? Preferably, one with 1400x20 wo/w. Thanks.

IL does not have a weight restriction either for antique tags. Just alot of restrictions on when and where you can drive it. However, I have just recently discovered that a stock deuce's front bumber is 2.5 inches too high for the state of IL for any GVWR. According to the law, a deuce...

There was a chart somewhere that broke the serial numbers down. That is what I am looking for.

Somewhere there was a page that broke down ones VIN number into type, year, etc., can someone please point me in the right dorection. My searching is not finding it. Thanks in advance.

If you really want a gas deuce, find one that came with a gasser motor and just Bob that one. It will save you alot of time and money. However, you will probably come out ahead by using a multifuel or a diesel if you plan to drive it much. The 5.9 Cummins is not only more fuel efficient, it...
