The double pully was welded and balanced by a local machine shop. We thought it better to leave that part to the pros. There are no dimensions to the bracket. We just pieced it together as we went. There is not that much room to work with. Send me an email with "Deuce Info" as the subject and I...
I have uploaded more pictures to flickr. I didn't know how to change the size of the file on my camera until after taking the pictures so they were all too big to send in e-mails. So I decided to place them where anyone wanting to look at them could have access. The link is Flickr: d.brown1919's...
Thank you for the links! We thought about adding this size of alternator. We ran into a problem on the amount of space available. We could have relocated the overflow resevoir for the coolant system, but that seemed to be more of a waste of time. Instead we opted for the automotive style. We had...
We can get you the demensions that you are looking for. We just ned to know what parts you are inquiring about. I have other pictures of the truck that show all the lighting, skid unit, radios, etc. if you would like to see more of it. Send me an e-mail of what you are looking for. It might take...
There are a couple of pics that redneckepj had taken. It's not the most beautiful thing by any means, but it will do the job. (It was his idea to paint the thing JD Green)
If there is anything that we can help someone with we are ready and willing. We thank you and everyone else that has taken an interest in this subject! If anyone has any other ideas that might work better, we are open to anyone's information. If we can keep these trucks running when they are...
We used the "Adding a 12 Volt DC Charging Circuit" report. I contacted the folks at RCE and asked them specifically about adding the system to a M35A3. They have not done so to this style deuce. They couldn't tell me if there was a way, but would let me know if they could find where someone had...
The primer is a great option. In our project vehicle we opted to use the disconnect switch to keep it as familiar to the other volunteers as we could. All of our other trucks have a disconnect. We have to keep it as routine and compairable as possible. The option was just better suited for us...
Yeah, we found the white tire to be comical! We told them to just worry about taping off the glass and lenses...they took it to heart. However, I can't complain. The paint was donated by a local body shop's paint supplier and the labor was donated by the body shop itself. It's just going to get...
Well, that didn't work! Let me see if I can get them on here. If you can't see what you want or need to see then send me a message and I'll see if I can get better one's taken.
Pictures of the 12 volt system
Sorry it took so long to post some, but we have been pretty busy. With help of the wiring diagrams found at www.roscommonequipmentcenter.com (Most Helpful!), we wired the system in the single wire method. The wiring diagram for the other method is there as well...
We ended up adding a 12 volt system to the deuce. Custom built an alternator bracket and mounted the 12v alternator beside the 24v one. There is plenty of room under the driver side to mount two batteries, mount fuse blocks and circuit breakers, and run wiring. We had a custom single wire, 200...
We appretiate the help!
Redneckepj and I have been banging our heads against the wall over this issue. The scary part is it is the first step of many for this project and the 180 day time limit isn't helping. If anyone stumbles upon any more information that might help with this issue please...
