What Gimpy said.....never heard of stock spin ons on a deuce. Unless someone added a spin on kit the 1" Box end wrench is what you remove the canisters with. If you are very careful you can reuse the old gasket. Putting a new one on while working upside down can be a real PITA.
I was at school when the auction closed....I had puter access and my laptop with me....me and Derrick (TaylorTradingCo) had just had a conversation about the truck......by the time I got on line the auction had closed.
I had made an appointment to view it but had to go recover a vehilce at...
I have singled out a deuce and have one that came from GL singled out.
I beg to differ with Pooch...looks like the stock offset to me....but I have been wrong before...usually when they singled them out they put the 1100x20 radials on them.
Did anybody on the site win this truck today????

Welcome to the Green Iron Laughing Accademy.:cookoo:
Just from reading your first post I get the impression you are a young fellow.....nothing wrong with that....we need young guns in the hobby.
I read your post before anyone had replied to it and my first thought was that the chit storm was...
Having owned a multi-fuel 5 ton I can tell you about the lack of power when you put a 180 HP engine in a vehicle that weighs around 34-36k.
It will not pull a greasy string out of a cats ahole going down the road.
That being said if you just need a vehicle for lifting and moving stuff around...
The ROPs could prob be set up on the back of the M915 but moving it to the trailer once you get to that pick up point might be a prob.
If BH brings a gooseneck it will be no prob to load it onto that.
It ain't eating but I'm sure you need it for it's intended purpose.:mrgreen:
No reference to any particular model......that was something my grandpa used to say....he was a pool shark and ran a floating poker game for many years....I think he spoke from experience.
I carry a .32 cal Walther PPK for light work (left to me by said grandpa) and if I think things are going...
I went out to check on the tractors and they seem to getting along famously. Probably swapping war stories.
The recovery went without a hitch.....my apoligies to whomever Mr. Murphy was dogging today...but he was off our back.
The M915 is in excellent shape but has had a fews parts "midnight...
If you are ex-military the Mobile Kitchen Trailer will be cooking up such Army favorites as SOS and Chili-mac.
Mike (SCSG-G4) and I are the chief cooks and bottle washers (although we will put you on KP).
The theme of the rally is MV's, food, and fun.......if you leave without having a good...
I don't know if this impresses me or scared the ell out of me.
As someone else stated I have had so many investigations of my background done that there is probably very little they don't know about me........still kind of Orwellian.
You're not paranoid if they really are out to get you.:tin...
If you decide you want to flip it for a good profit I have a friend that will send you a check for more than you are asking for it....his buddy will pick it up later. Just deposit the check in your account and send him the overage.
His english is kind of poor but he buys a lot of stuff from...
DUDE!!!!!!I'm right down the road from you.....I got a awesome set of metric tools I bought at Habor Fright......I'll be glad to help you work on it. Most of them are little bitty but we should be able to wing it. We can take it wheelin in the Federal Wildlife Refuge...those park rangers will...
Welcome to the Green Iron Laughing Accademy.:cookoo:
Lot's of good folks in the area (even ol' Papa bear).
Start preparing for the much touted GA Rally in Oct.
One of the best MV events in the country.
I can't see where they would be practical on a paved road.....might could be modified as a log trailer or for hauling something over soft terrain (which is prob their intended purpose).
