Maddawg is correct, you want the medium. Mediums seem to run from a low of about $300 and up, depending upon condition, pins, feet, etc. Homemade towbars can be made: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/deuce/21184-homegrown-tow-bar.html and http://www.steelsoldiers.com/deuce/60909-diy-tow-bar.html

There is a good thread somewhere that details a way to troubleshoot the flasher so you can verify it isn't a ground issue. If you can't find, let me know.

best. thread. ever. Sadly, I am so used to this sort of thing I didn't realize you were joking!

C turbo > D turbo But if you don't see the light, I'll happily trade you a D for the C 8) Thanks G!

That's awesome! I love WWII stuff, it is just timeless.

Austringer is probably the undisputed expert in the 4 cyl realm. Hopefully he'll chime in within a few days.

I agree with all that I'd be fearful of compromising the sidewall by not doing it right.

That is a great resource, E22. Thanks for taking the time to post up. C

Read up on all these threads and you'll be a sprag expert! Once you've read them, if you are still unsure or can not make the front axle engage, find the thread that's most relevant and bump it back up with your question(s)! Good luck...

I don't think I'd be terribly concerned about that. I know when I drove your truck to my parent's house (30 miles, mostly interstate) I checked them and I wasn't concerned. There was a good thread (I thought neilhendrix was the author but I can't find it now) that had the actual temps and...

In the picture you're thinking of, isn't one of the headlights out?

Just an FYI: Fastenal has the studs. Sold in a 10 pack (you'll end up with extras for your other deuces! :p). The Fastenal part #: 11105070 The Fastenal cost for the 10 pack: $8.97 The Au-Ve-Co ( Auveco ) part # is 9683 I think when I get home I am going to merge the two threads and...

Also, should we be carrying 2 types of recovery straps with us? I thought that when you were going to "snatch" a stuck vehicle out, by getting a moving start on it, you had to use the correct "recovery" type straps that are designed to stretch and use kinetic energy to get the stuck vehicle...

Ok, I am good there. I have 2 of the correct deuce blocks that are NOS and an NOS block off the 5 ton (much bigger). 10' length seem reasonable? That's what Kenny recommended above. Or a short, medium and long assortment? I assume the same 1/2" stuff that's on the deuce winch is sufficient...

Going to mess with it this week-simply ran out of time last week, but luckily did not need it Saturday.

You guys wanting to do RVN correct restos need to read this thread. It answers this thread's question and more: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/deuce/58651-opinions-vietnam-period-correct-restoration-needed.html

Ok, I just swapped a winch onto my primary deuce and I am trying to put together a comprehensive "kit" of gear to take with me when we do the trails. I wasn't sure which thread best covered this....................... Maddawg started this thread...

I wish the sound on videos taken with my Evo sounded that good. Those wipers are so much better than the stock ones or the "upgrades" (i.e. Saturn).

Did the pictures ever materialize?
