Short answer: condition codes mean nothing.
Anything you bid on from that site, you should bid on as if it's scrap. If it isn't scrap, you won. If it's scrap, you broke even.
Do a search here on SS for "condition codes". Most of the threads discuss vehicles, but you should read them all...
I can not take any credit for it or really any of the mule-I bought it restored from SS member Maccus. I wired up the headlight, added a taillight (for safety at the SS Ga. Rally in the dark), did pinion seals, clutch, brakes, etc.
The headache racks serves two purposes: Primarily, it is to...
SS and the G are probably the best Mule forums. I think there's more mule traffic on the G but more owners here.
I think Austringer and ChuckW (I think he's Charlie here on SS) are the preeminent Mule experts. There are definitely enough people here on SS who are knowledgeable to keep you...
Thank you for the compliments, gentlemen.
Welcome to the site. Ice or no ice, any excuse you need to go get into a deuce is a good one!
We've been refurbishing and selling deuces for several years, so we have a good grasp of the market.
So here's a recent history of the deuce market: For...
I had a lot of fun, it was nice to get out of the house. I appreciate microjeep's door prizes and 73M819 taking the time to organize this.
My deuce didn't know what to think being that far from home!
1. I could have sworn the last time I drove it it showed a 1/4 of a tank.
2. I used to work in a shop as a service adviser and it was a constant fight with the slacker techs who thought driving something through a parking lot was sufficient. I do not like comebacks, it's very important to me...
Welcome to the site.
We hope you can visit with us at the Steel Soldiers Ga. Rally in October. It's a great event.
Like SW said, all of the tm's for the truck are available here for download for free. The best thing you can do is read through them (especially the operators manual), learn...
Shoot, he knows more about the factory deuce jack than I do, so he must have read something.
Sounds good to me.
Center it under the axle tube (the square part) and leave room for your jackstand. If you aren't on concrete, a large board, 2x6, etc. is a good idea since the deuce is so heavy...
We're definitely coming this year we just aren't sure if it's a one day thing or longer.
The first day the convention is open to the public is Thursday, correct?
If you can only come one day, is there a "better" day? I guess since all the vehicles and vendors are required to be there for the...
30K btu:
Your house is insulated 10K times better than a deuce. Some deuces have window gaps big enough to stick your finger through. Dried up weatherstripping that didn't work great when it was new. Multiple holes in the firewall, floor and tub. No insulation. So 30K btu heaters in...
Does anyone have any info about the little Jeep that was built on the John Deere lawnmower frame or the homemade Abrams tank?
Like, did the people who built them put their builds anywhere online?
I know there's a good thread out there discussing the merits of the 3 choices (AVM, Ouverson, Selectro) but I can't find it right now. Try these for starters:

We just got home about 20 minutes ago. We stopped North of Atlanta at my parent's house to pick up Brian and hung with them for about an hour.
We want to thank the Florida Chapter for organizing and hosting the event, it was really laid back and fun. Much thanks to all the people who brought...
Sorry, I don't remember us talking about the covers. Honestly, the last couple of weeks of our lives have been a zoo.
We're asking $900 for the complete cover kits. 3-color camo 1-piece vinyl covers, dropside bows and corners in metal and fiberglass staves, all new hardware, etc.
Last of my...
