ccatlett1984 on SS did this some years back. I don't recall the thread. More pics here- http://s239.photobucket.com/albums/ff129/ccatlett1984/

This has been one of my favorite truck pics for a long time.

The build sheet and data plates I've seen for the XM381 refer to it as a 2 ton truck. http://www.xm381.com/xm381/History.html

I've bought used 395's from a couple vendors at $150 a piece. Finding them with decent tread is not my problem as some have had 95% but, getting them without ozone damage/cracking is the bigger issue for me. The last set of 395's I bought new so that I could run that truck farther from base with...

Likely a Cummins V8 model M123A1C.

Here's the link to a great thread on "Deuce in the Movies". The Sorcerer discussed here too. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/conversations/31851-deuces-movies.html

I have had only one deuce with an engine tag with build year that matched the truck. That is not to imply it has to be the original motor, just one from the same year as the truck. My 1974 has a White Engines Inc./Hercules Engine Division motor in it stamped in 1974 and no rebuild tags on the...

How long is your bed now?

The tires in that pic are 395 Goodyears I got from Sam Winer Motors. There is plenty of clearance for all/everyday driving. After taking it on to some serious off road driving I noticed a minimal scuff mark in the wheel well, but no damage. The scuff showed me that there is more up/down...

This non-turbo truck has been running the trails and pits for several years now. Seems to do well even running the 53" tires.

What Stretch said [thumbzup] I have hauled over a hundred of these kind of loads with my deuce at 55 mph with no problems, including brake fade. It is no rocket ship to that speed and I do not tailgate.

Should be no problem for him. He has 65 posts in the last 5 hrs.

The tire is a 1600R20 and the wheel flange doesn't even come close to securing the bead of the tire. Scary at best under any vehicle.

What are you planning to do with this truck and what size tires/wheels will you be using?

This excerpt was in an article I found on the net. But the Snow Cruiser may be awaiting rediscovery. According to an article in Polar Geography, by Ted Scambos of the National Snow and Ice Data Center, "Analysis of a series of maps, sightings, satellite images, and aerial photos indicates that...

From the deuce operators manual.

The ice shelf where the snow cruiser was located is gone. The pic below shows an encampment on a broken piece of ice shelf in an Antarctic ice flow. It is gone now also.

Here's a couple pics of the cab reinforcement to bed rail measurement on mine. I lengthened driveshaft 5.75" and got the rear wheels centered in the wheel well. I wanted necessary room for side kit and cover management.

Giving this thread a bump since I see it is currently listed in the classifieds again. Nice bike!

I have some more.
