I am currently striping my deuce, on the heavier metals (frame, running boards) I have had great luck with a pneumatic needle scaler.
I have even used it (with great care) on the fuel tank. It will leave the rust oxide primer while getting rid of the (in my case very thick ) CARC paint...
Snarky,
We have used the "insulator" from Spruce in our Piper Aztecs. That combined with metalized tape worked wonders for both temperture and noise levels. We covered the entire inner skin of the cabin. Never thought about using it for the deuce, I actually have a spare roll, hmmmmm...
Great stories guys...Mine's not quite as good. When I bought my truck the guys I work with said it was going to cost a mint at the DMV because I would need truck tags. Went to the DMV with the old SC title.
Me: I would like to apply for a title/tags/registration (handing her the mountain of...
Guys,
I am currently taking advantage of being bedless to do some renovations on the deuce. I thought this would be a good time to change out the ancient harnesses, starting with the rear. I have a email into Memphis and Saturn Surplus, but I thought I'd see if anyone had a harness they were...
Ive used a piece of rope in mine. Has worked for years. When I was looking for one, no one had any. Called a business that made tops and they turned me onto the rope trick.
Tie,
I had the same problem with my soft top, but the hard plastic channel that rides in the windshield frame was trashed too. One of the guys on SS had removed the hard plastic completey and used a piece of rope and an adhesive called pliobond and made an envelope for the rope and glued it...
105 canvas
Taylor Trading Co (on steel soldiers) had some a few weeks back. I bought a set of side racks, bows, and canvas for mine. They were top notch.
Hope this helps,

Little off topic, but..... Derek if you ever get any fiberglass troop seats for a 2 1/2 ton, I need a set of those. Also, the 105 rails and bows you sent were beautiful !!!

lock out
Its probably like mine 66' M35A2, in that it has a sprag instead of air control. There is a great article in PM magazine on the site about how it works.
Good luck,

Been running Jet A for two years now. I have no set ratios that I mix with, but I do make sure to put at least a couple of quarts of MMO or engine oil wth it. I've been known to throw a couple of gallons of 100LL it to boot as well. So far no problems, except when I get the water from the...
WOW, thanks for all the responses !! :shock:
First off, Jwaller and Bill W, PM sent. And yes the bed that is for sale is exactly like the one pictured by M813rc. And Alredneck, I agree, the extra space would be nice but I think it would interfer with the use of the pintle or reese. And plus...
RE: 14
Thanks for the quick replies guys. I guess the short distance to get the bed a great advantage. I think I will go out next week with a tape measure and verify the dimensions. And for Recovery and Cpt. Marion, the only reference I could find to a 14' bed was that of the M813, but there...
