    Truck-lite LED headlights - Photos

    I mostly run them on low beam. When the oncoming traffic tries to bright light me and I bright light them, they concede the point alot quicker than if I was in anything else around here!!!

    Towing a 5 ton behind a 5 ton

    I'll chime in on the lighter truck pulling the heavier truck comments. I towed a few 5 tons with my Deuce. Air hoses are a must, Do Not tie off the steering wheel on a 5 ton. Otherwise, things went pretty good. I've not towed a M900 series behind my deuce but the M800's are a hand full...

    Deuce won't idle

    Next step would be to pull the cover off the side of the IP and ensure the fuel cutoff rod is not sticking. Many threads to read about that issue. I don't have a picture but I'm sure someone will come along that does.

    Bought my first Deuce, brakes seem weak

    My deuce was hard to stop when I first got it. Ask Atomic, he drove it for my one time while it had the issue. I removed the J-pipe that feeds the airpack, squirted some oil in there, removed the plug on the back of the air pack and squirted oil in there. Now it stops with about as much...

    Official 2012 SS Ga Rally Info thread

    Dave, If I can afford to fuel a Deuce 180 miles, buy enough beer to drink like a fool and food, I'm sure I can easily find a $20 to hand you if you can wait until the rally to collect it!!! That could go for either idea, JP and Ferro could use it for fuel or Swiss could use it towards the...

    Engine stalling @ idel

    first filter requires loosening the alternator and moving it out of the way. Then you turn the big bolt on the top of the filter housing counter clockwise until you see the filter can turning. Then you wedge the wrench between the center bolt and the inner fender, climb down and rotate the...

    Official 2012 SS Ga Rally Info thread

    Can't wait to make the trip. I've got to unblouse my deuce (lose the cargo cover), make an airline connection in the J pipe for the airpack to activate and hook behind somebody's godawful rendition of a guntruck. I can't wait! All kidding aside, we should have a blast. Anyone towed a Deuce...

    Injector pump questions about numbers...can anyone help?

    Always curious about differences between LDT's and LDS's. I've turned my pump up my LDT, it blows black smoke when you grab a higher gear or when you stomp the throttle but it clears up. That should be plenty of fuel and the truck runs great. Is the advance curve in the governor different on...

    C7 ACERT inline 6 cylinder 330hp diesel

    Westech, I'm referring to injectors melting on home station trucks (Ga National Guard) running Diesel from the local fuel stations, some with less than 5,000 miles and not many hours of idling time. I've done quite a few injectors, I've even made my own puller by welding a U bolt to a slide...

    Official 2012 SS Ga Rally Info thread

    Ok, I'm back in the game. I thought I was sidelined earlier today as my wife backed into something and damaged the bumper cover on her SUV. Turns out the plastic can be pushed back out and save for a few scratches, it looks fine. I was extremely angry just a few hours ago thinking my very...

    C7 ACERT inline 6 cylinder 330hp diesel

    It could be done, however it's going to be some work. It's an electronic diesel and it melts injector tips quite frequently. These motors are in the FMTV's and MRAP Cougar, M-ATV variants. I personally hate this motor for more reasons than the injectors but others mileage may vary.

    Albany Ga pickup needed

    A few loading pics. Munchies is a nice guy, however I was a little peeved that I got paid less than my fuel expense for the recovery. I didn't make an issue out of it in person as he had some extra expenses involving renting a flatbed since his primary truck is having some issues. Just a note...

    Official 2012 SS Ga Rally Info thread

    Info, PB, I may not be able to meet at lunch. I've got to be with the wife and kids to run some tests as they call them. I'm more interested now in towbaring a jeep behind the CuCv. I'll come pick it up from the compound, just place it somewhere easy for me to hook to it. I may get there a...

    Offroading Deuce

    There's a guy who comes to the GA Rally who has re located the fuel tank and batteries to the bed. He removed the battery box, tool box and steps. He's still got both rear axles and runs 11.00 R 20 Firestone T831's, still dualed, and that thing will got through some tough spots. It's an...

    Exhaust out the back or side?

    I've got a muffler and wear ear plugs when driving. I can still hear my whistler spool when I get on the throttle, I can hear the engine fan and at around 45 mph, the trans or transfer case picks up a whine as well. I agree with Capt. Marion, there are alot of issues to work around to make a...

    Recovery M818 from Camp Dodge

    If you tow it with the Deuce, please heed this advice from someone who has done this before. Leave the steering wheel untouched, do not try to tie it off in the straight ahead position, hook the air brake lines up since you feel like you've got them fixed, and go slow. If you tie off the...
