    How often should I drive

    JUNE 8TH, 2008. My deuce gets run 12 or 15 miles daily to work and back, and since I got her in October 2007 from BulL Dog Mack 13, she seems to be running much better then normal. Heck the Army and her two other civilian owners managed to run her only about 1200 miles in 5...

    wanting 6 wheels instead of 10

    June 7th, 2008. JodyP: Unless you're really set on oversize tires, look into using Goodyear G177 Radial M+S 1100R20's, the military converted many M35A's to this system, you have the wheels, all you have to do is flip the rear hubs and you will end up with the proper tire track...

    Air shift question

    June 6th, 2008. Mine has a light on it,next to the air shift switch, with a light kinda like the high beam indicator light on the same bracket as the switch. You generally don't hear much of a clunk engaging, but the truck will fight you on very sharp turns ("Traction Steer, I Guess?) and...

    Looking at a Unimog

    June 6th, 2008 ("D"Day Anniversary) Dear DKR: Being as I have both a Swiss Army Cargo Unimog and a US Army 1971 Kaiser Jeep Deuce, I can spare some points of each for your consideration. I owned the Unimog first, and found it to be an above average runner (untill it tangled with...

    Buddy wants a UNIMOG

    May 18th, 2008. I concur with most of what's been said above about the Unimogs and speed, My S404.114 will do 61 miles an hour briefly, but she prefers 35/40 generally, and the M180 gas engine is much maligned, it's reliable (for a 1950 design), sounds good and runs good, if you don't...

    May 18th, 2008. I agree with Will Wagner and Cranetruck above..... The duece brakes can be unforgiving and there's no patch made that will guarantee your life and those around you like a new set of air tanks, and ditto for the fuel tanks.... bust one of those in the right spot, and...

    AVM vs Ouverson: take a closer look!

    May 18th, 2008. Gentlemen: While I haven't got a dog in this fight, so to speak, here are my uninformed (other then the photographs above) comments. It would seem that heavier gears, bearings and lock mechanisms might be a very good thing, when applied to...
