Yeah, It's not charging anymore. Went to start the truck today and the batteries were low. Put the charger on it and started it about an hour later. Checked the alternator per the TM and found 1.1V output on the terminal of the alternator. Tried to adjust (For the heck of it) the output via...
Well, I've got an alternator that decided to take a crap on me. Anyone have any leads as to where to get a new one? Are these 24V 60A Alternators Rebuildable by any Alternator Shop?
Thanks for your help, I've been googling the part numbers and so far nothing really.
Thx,
Just wanted to chime in and check out the posts. Seems like nothing has changed and still on for Camp Dirtbag! I have a flight back into town on Friday the 10th. So as soon as I get back, I'll load up and hit the road and should be out there that afternoon/evening. Same place as the last 2...
Saturn Surplus has conversion kits for them as well. I bought mine from Saturn and it uses a standard 10" blade if I remember right. Installed them on my 1953 Reo M35. Seems to work pretty good for me though I haven't driven too much in the rain...
So, are we still on for the weekend of October 11th? My wife's parents decided to take it upon themselves to buy my wife and I plane tickets to Northern Cal. from approx. Oct. 7-11.... So, I just need to know if we are still on for the 11th so that I can make arrangements to be back on the...
Hello my fellow friends!!! Been out of the loop for quite a while. Thanks Will for the phone call. Anyways, count me in. I've got permission from the higher power to go out and play. Hopefully she won't renig on it as time gets closer! Talk to you soon,

Regardless of the vehicle registration status, the Deuce is a Commercial Class "B" minimum vehicle here in the lovely state of California. It's all because of the 3rd Axle to start, then the weight of the vehicle (GVW), and then the "Air over Hydraulic" brakes does classify as needing an "Air...
Yeah, I've done a pertronix conversion before and it was very simple. I have a 1927 Ford Model-T Hotrod with a Chevy 350 motor. That one has a Pertronix Conversion and was pretty much just drop in place and plug-N-play. Really easy. Just never done it on the deuce with a 24V system before...
Thank you for your help. What was getting me confused was the 24V option on the pertronix unit. When I check the website, they didn't show one available for the 1167 series units. I fully understand the basic 40,000V 3.0 Ohm Coil and having to modify the base of the disty to accomodate the...
Awesome. I checked Pertronix Website and found the 1167 Iginition Module. This is what I found:
1167 IGNITOR DELCO 6 CYL (12V)
1167N6 IGNITOR DELCO 6 CYL 6V NEG GND
1167P12 IGNITOR DELCO 6 CYL POS GND
1167P6 IGNITOR DELCO 6 CYL 6V NEG GND
Nothing shows for 24V as you mentioned, do you have a...
JasonS, Thank you soo much for your help. So if I got it right, all I need is a 1167 Pertronix unit and nothing else? Once I get the part, I need to modify the mounting/base plate to secure the new unit to my existing distributor. The 1167 works on 24v or do I need to rewire for 12v...
Anyone ever done a points to Pertronix conversion on a M35? I have a 1953 Reo M35 with a Continental OA331 Gasser Motor. The distributor is a Delco-Remy M#
1111556, S# 3 B 11, CW Rotation, Military Ordnance # 7762685. Anyone have any leads or ideas on how to and what part numbers to use for a...
BTW - did you have the aluminum shear pin installed or something else? If anything downstream of the drive shaft was to bind then the shear pin would break to save the PTO. If you had the correct aluminum shear pin installed then it binded within the PTO/Transfer Case. Just thought that would...
Hey badgmc56 - Got a question for you about the Pertronix Unit. Do you know if they have one for a 1953 Reo M35 with a Continental OA331 Gasser Motor - 24 Volt System? I would love to get rid of the points and go electronic. I just bought a new distributor for mine. I've also been having a...

Streetgliderx - I run 11.00x20 on my duece and 9.00x20 on my M105 Trailer. Love the 11.00x20's! The 11's are approx. 42.5" Tall and the 9's are 39.5" Tall. Also, 11's are about 11.5" Wide and the 9's are about 10.5" Wide. These were measurements that I just...
The Sherwin Williams paint that you used, was it Latex, Enamel, or something else? Did they color match it for you with the computer? Trying to get some ideas on what type of paint and where to get some locally. The last batch of paint I had was a Flat Latex Behr Exterior paint color matched...
Mod, please feel free to move this to the appropriate location. Not sure where to post this.
I remember reading up on Winch Cable Maintenance before but my search skills on SS are terrible and haven't found an answer that I'm looking for. I have a Deuce with a Garwood 10,000 Lb. winch. It...
