RE: bed fixed and painted yesterday
I have heard that from a bunch of folks. I laugh because I catch myself sanding NOS parts because they have runs in the paint and I don't want someone to think I painted the runs. I've got to get over this!
bed fixed and painted yesterday
I fixed the Barstow forklift damage, pounded out the damaged mud flaps, sanded, sanded and sanded some more.
I shot the bed, rims, reflector frames etc yesterday. Went thru about a gallon of CARC. I love my $9.99 harbor freight paint gun. She did the whole...
Gary,
When I was there with Will, I saw camp fires. Regarding shootin', there is an area on the other side of the 15 fwy where that is allowed. We may need to bring stuff to blow up.
Regarding Simi,
I'll be at yrly meeting at one of our sister plants in Simi. I plan on driving the deuce out...
RE: got some pics of camping areas
I found out I can't get out of the conference I'll be at in Simi Valley on the 9th. It may end early but I'm not sure. I'll have to play it by ear regarding the convoy. So at the worst I'll have to meet you guys up there. :x
got some pics of camping areas
Will, my wife and myself went out to the Stoddard Wells area and scouted out some camping and riding areas.
It was an awsome day, about 60 degrees and blue skies. We found a great nook just big enough to fit 5-10 big M.V.'s. Nice wind block yet right off the one...
Tyler,
I used high temp DRUM brake grease. Not disk brake grease.
I packed the bearings and put the recommended amount in the drum also.
You are correct that the inner seal keeps grease in and the outer keeps dif. fluid out. If you've gone so far as to break down the axles that far, i'd...

nice idea. I got lucky and my duece came with a new hood and new rubber dampeners. They did use some glue as well. I removed them when I painted the hood and put them back using some good doublesided 3M tape and the original hardware which resembles those brass paper clip that has a snake...
I'm in and I'll contact the guys next week.
Will, you can go! You just need more convincing! "acres and acres of big green stuff" "trailers, containers and sheds yet to be explored" "hanging out with a crazy bunch of MV nuts" "eating some of the best tacos North of the border"...got ya...
When I got my deuce the horn didn't work either. I used the TM and troubleshot using a meter. Found poor ground as stated above and found the wire coming out of the steering column broken. A few months later i had the same problem as above "works but quits a bit down the road". My fix at the...
