custom bases or spring bases?
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
pics of the bases that I built are at the top of the page. No suspension in the seats, but the foam is so much better than the factory stuff, that I don't miss the spring at all.custom bases or spring bases?
It handles better than with the stock steering setup; I have a load-reactive steering valve in the system so there is some "feel" in the steering wheel, but you do feel a bit disconnected from what is happening under the truck. Aside from the reduced effort, the biggest plus is the 3.5 turns lock to lock...much more maneuverable than with the manual steering. I've logged a fair amount of road miles with this setup, and never once regretted the swap.How does your full hydro steering handle? I seen your youtube video. I was just curious if it wonders on the road and feels loose?
I put together my own kit...largely using PSC components. There is a list of parts that I used earlier in this thread.Did you use the pcs kit? How do you think it would handle in a bobbed deuce?
1. About 5 psi in the rear, 10 psi in the front (give or take a few psi). Lowering tire pressure makes the biggest difference out in the sand.Loved the video! A few questions if I may...
1) What tire pressure did you run in the sand?
2) How long does it take to fill the tires back up with air?
3) Do you use the on-board compressor to fill them up?
4) Would you have been able to do all of that in your video without lockers?
Hate to burst your bubble "Goomer", but around here deuces are few and far between. They command a high price. You would do better to get a newer 5 ton. There is a place in Idaho that still has deuces for sell, but like I said they want a "very pretty penny" for them !Love this thread
I had a Duce a few years ago didn't have the money or time for it so I sold it now I want one again so many available mods that I didn't have available to me I love it
