Thank you. Have the coolant plumbed now, onto the fuel

Did that with my mom's suburban when I was 13. Bottom corner of the door got me right between the back ribs, never making that mistake again haha.

Looked at the tm's and can't find this info. Which way does the coolant flow in the deuce? Is it from the water pump up towards the intake manifold, or the other way? Going to be pulling the plugs on the intake for the coolant filter plumbing.

Interested, like others need to see a prototype

Checked with a few of the rpm calculators and to get it all to match up with 42" tires, 6.72 axle ratio, 60mph, and that rpm reading it needs a .69 ratio from the transmission. Could the trans have been upgraded before you got it? With a .79 ratio it doesn't match up with the 11's.

Jeepsinker to get the rpms to match that speed are you running the .69 overdrive upgrade?

The output from the pump (not the pickups steering box) should work with the stock 9x20" s if you ran the correct steering box, but its output will be pretty close to max. Imagine hanging about 2k pounds of extra weight on the front bumper of a pickup that's rolling on 38" tires. That's...

To piggyback off the question what about running a set of wires in parallel from the batteries to provide the separate 12 volt system?

Mounted the primary fuel filter setup as well as a filter for the cooling system. Both need to be plumbed in.

Decided to work on the fuel filter upgrade this weekend. The filters were changed right before I bought the truck and it's been spoiled on a straight diesel diet. Going to spin on filters for the better filter ability, ease of maintenance, and standardization of filters between my trucks...

Traveled to El Paso over the weekend to meet up with VPED and purchase some items. Was a good time hanging out with him and his wife and exploring some of the off road areas in the area, thank you. Should have the seats in this weekend and have the tires mounted in a few weeks.

Keep forgetting to post these about the bumper. Not fully reinforced until the 1/2" thick plate for the winch mount is added

Same here. Will have to happen on a later trip. I'll be there Saturday with the pickup/trailer though.

Well bad news with the deuce. Went to replace the flat tire and some of the wheel studs are stripping (yes turning the correct way), checked the other axles and having a few others doing the same thing. Looks like I'm making the trip with the 05 pickup and finding a trailer

Getting ready to roll. Have 1 flat tire but otherwise I'm set. Carrying spare belts, wheel bearings, fluids, and a few other items as usual. Should be rolling by 6pm friday

Lol he won first. Considering that the deuce was not cleaned/prepped for a show I was amazed to win anything haha.

In the truck division

Arrived late to a car show and was talked into entering the truck, won 3rd place!

Just because its not bobbed doesn't mean its stock.

Personal opinion I think the 3rd axle is what makes a deuce, a deuce. With that being said for the bobbers it's their truck, build it how you want and the way you want it. Anything is better than what we did with them in Utah at the demolition range. They are used as targets up there for...
