    My 1971 Am General m109a3 RV build

    In addition to the new tubes, were new flaps also required? I also noticed that the Power Kings come in a 10.00R20 size also. In your opinion is that little increase in size worth the extra $$$? Thanks...

    Where'd you buy the tires? Prices on Amazon are considerably higher than some of the online dealers that also offer free shipping...

    Did you have the outside bead/soda blasted or just hand sanded? What primer did you use, with an airless?

    What's your thoughts on doing the floor in diamond plate and then having Rhinoliner applied? I really like the rubber mats. The inside really looks good now!!!

    Air-O-Matic steering caution !!!

    It's Air Assisted. I got this current thread started when I inquired about anything I should be aware of during installation of a new kit that came with my Deuce when I bought it many years ago. Sounds like from earlier comments that they were available from a source some time ago but that the...

    Air Assist Steering Install...

    Thanks Runk, Removing the heater is no problem. I prefer as much room to work in as possible. Not a big fan of trying to snake hoses or use rigged tools to get to some almost inaccessible space behind some other component. I figured drilling the hole in that thick rail would be a real BE-ATCH...

    Spin on oil filter kit

    I put Westfolk's systems on both my M185A3 & M934/A0. I couldn't be happier with his products & I'm sad to hear that he's not in the business anymore, if that's really true. He's going to be bored to death...

    The data plate in the cab will tell you if it's an M109 or M185. The other sure way to tell is by looking on the upper front passenger side of the box. If there are two plugs for the shore power, then you have an M185 (the electronics repair version of the shop truck). If you have just one plug...

    Air Assist Steering Install...

    When I purchased my M185A3 years ago, it came with a new Air Assist Steering assembly in the box. Now I'm ready to install it and need a little advice. The install instructions look pretty clear cut, so I'm looking for advice from anybody that's installed this system on a Deuce. Thanks in...
