October 29th, 2009. Good luck CatMan and Co: I have been watching the MVPA on this one, and I believe that they have leaned too much toward historic vehicle use restrictions on these vehicles. What one needs to do is force the Feds to permit an exemption as they were designed to Federal...

October 22nd, 2009. GOHOT229: On further thought, the Swiss Saurer system could be adapted to the deuce, but I believe that the TM-10 Operator's manual may address using the rear duals as a winch in an emergency also, if not one of the PM magazines may have covered it. In short, one attaches...

October 21st, 2009. RES0W18: If your pockets are deep enough, I would suggest contacting any one of the dealers that handle the Deutz diesels, much better built and more robust then a GMC... the -71 series always left something to be desired in torque, and the sound of them, well, the...

October 21st, 2009. Now that my Multifuel has has the rear main seal and carrier gasket replaced, she behaves fine, with no more leaks then any other 38 year old truck. Likely the radiator will be the next recoring job, as its starting to show wear. To quote "Wreckerman" above ...
