    Deuce Turbo Question

    Actually divemaster,the difference is in the exhaust or drive side,not the intake,the exhaust side on a "D" turbo is considerably larger whereas the "C" turbo really decreases in diameter quickly.

    looking for a GOER

    BTW,the rear winch was built ONLY for the GOER,and the M553 was the only GOER series truck to carry a spare tire. Also the M553 tipped the scales at a ready to roll weight of 37,870 lbs,a full 12,440 lbs than the M520 cargo and 9770 lbs than a M559 tanker.

    For those members that have never seen a #7 wrecker set in a Deuce
