    My transmission doesn't have a vent

    why drill a hole in the lid? it already has a 1/8 pipe hole. but for fording you do not want to vent anything, you want to pressurize it which is what the fording kit does. this is what is done to vehicles that are expected to be in water. and even then the manual wants you to take everything...

    deuce power steering gear boxes

    you can make a whole new column too if you want to, but the goat column already has the lower bearing and all the horn parts. and may only be something like $10. and is NEW. you want to make all that stuff? of course the 710 does not line up with existing holes. tom

    My transmission doesn't have a vent

    it is vented into the clutch housing by design any way so the vent on top of the trans is sort of useless. tom

    Yet another blown head gasket

    all gasket sets are the same. difference would be the gasket from turbo to exhaust pipe. no retorque with new style gaskets. use a die to chase all threads on studs, head and manifold for easier assymbly. tom

    Will a deuce accept two PTO's?

    i have a forward-neutral-reverse pto unit from a m-757 that could be adapted. it is a stand alone unit with shaft in and shaft out. tom

    Will a deuce accept two PTO's?

    also if you could find one (doubtful) the civilian trans had a pto cover on both sides. tom

    New HH, now a lot of smoke and no power???

    really excessive black smoke is lack of air, or too much fuel. have you taken the air filter off and checked for blockage? how long did truck sit before new HH was installed? maybe someone built a nest. tom

    New HH, now a lot of smoke and no power???

    if it runs, the HH is good. are you sure you have the injector lines on correctly? i cannot imagine how you would get the HH off or on again unless the drive gear is in exactly the right spot with out bending the drive gear cover plate. with the HH out, you can look into the top of pump and line...

    my head and eyes hurt looking at transmission lube

    in the long run any oil you use from 30wt motor oil to 90 wt gear oil will be fine. i found that i had to use 40 wt motor oil in my transfer case to solve a problem. the 90wt oil would foam so much that it would blow out of the vent at speeds near 70. (in my last truck, cat powered with .66 OD)...

    New HH, now a lot of smoke and no power???

    right. the red tooth has nothing to do with timing, it is just there for removal of the HH. if all 3 pointers line up it is wrong. really kind of stupid design if you think about it, but in another way it is nessacary so the HH cam will be on low spot to install HH easier. i think you will find...

    air locking rockwell axle

    ok, i have 3 original military rockwell air lockers in my truck and am seriously thinking of bobbing it. so i will have an extra axle that is way to valuable to just scrap. question is what is it worth? would some one else bobbing their truck want to buy it? just wondering. tom

    The First Modification To Your Deuce

    seth_o, no i did not do any write up as i recall. basically i removed the pedal assy and master cyl and everything related to it. that freed up a lot of room underneath. i mounted the brake pedal assy from a 900 series on the firewall and the entire clutch hyd system from a UD box truck...

    diesel/gas mix in a deuce

    just be aware that the fuel is all that lubes the HH piston. yes the multifuel will burn straight gas, but only in an emergency and not for that long until the HH is toast. plenty of added oil to the fuel for lubing is a must. tom
