Thanks Tracer. I’d say I was a little rusty…… I was on the tools for 15 plus years, my trade was fabrication but have lots of experience welding. I’ve been in management for the last 8 or 9 years. I build ships for the Canadian Navy. I’ll round the corners off and clean up the nozzle boogers...

I did take the truck out into the mountains back in February. 3 nights in the freezing rain and snow. I slept in the back with the cargo cover on. It was pretty cold lol I stayed fairly local. The lake I went to was fairly low elevation so I figured I wouldn’t run into too much snow. A few...

Next the drop sides. I used a zip cut to do all the cutting. Less clean up, less chance of fire, and nice accurate cuts. I’m near surgical with those babies. started with removing the old rusty sides and laying out the front corners. now I admit this isn’t a military spec refit, it’s custom...

So, The King Deuce is getting what might be it’s last set of major upgrades and repair. I’ve always wanted drop side beds. My winch needed replacement also. Unfortunately for us Canadians parts for these trucks don’t grow on trees like they do in the mighty USA! luckily for me a member here...

03/13 for me

Hey Guys, Hope everyone is in good spirits and without hassle or pain. The Deuce has been relegated to Walmart, yard work, and car show duties for the most part. I have started a family and mountain expeditions have declined unfortunately. Time really does fly. I recognized the problem, I...

I am also caught up in this paperwork issue. I purchased mine out of Yermo in March. Still no word when I will be able to get it off of the lot.

I'm still here

RIP Ron He is preserved in both memory and his posts here. I will miss seeing them. I’m sorry for the loss of your friend.

Thanks Pat! I would be in your debt. Let me know if you see any decent XML tires laying around too lol

Man I wish I could get my hands on a winch, they don't grow on trees in Canada like they do in the US. Any more of them things down there in Washington?

They look like re-centered HMETT's. Bolted together as it doesn't seem to be a welded on the outside. I say black, or tan like mentioned before. The green looks out of place.

It's most likely the air governor like rusty and the other fellas said. The drag link component of the AIR O MATIC should have a line exiting from it that's roughly 1 inch dia. Coiled wire and fabric hose. It will hiss when you reach full lock when turning. Mine was bypassing just enough...

My Air O Matic was bypassing air out of the exhaust port. My truck would not build air past about 50 psi. I couldn't hear it while to truck was running. To get it to stop I would cut the air supply to the Air O Matic let the truck build pressure to 120 then open the valve to charge the steering...

My motivation for changing the air intake was related to function in water.......I snorkeled it. I made brackets that piggy back off of the exhaust stack mounts. My first try at making a snorkel was successful but was a home made jobby. Didn't look that great but functioned well. I put on a ram...

My Deuce pedal is doing the same thing, I can lift the pedal up and the idle will drop. Sounds like I need to pull it apart and clean it up.

Like hot sauce......I put that "Stuff" on everything

To be honest removing the rad is a quick job. 4 bolts on the front grill and 3 bolts on the rad. I had mine out in 30 min.

Cool truck.........looks to be in great shape
