Dukw Combat Rims on a Deuce???

[Flatlander]

Say, could you use Dukw combat rims on a Deuce? They are the same bolt pattern, I think...

The rim size is 18 instead of 20...are there any manufacturers of the 18 inch military tires?

Just a thought...

Actually, I think I'd rather recenter some Oshkosh combat rims...find those now on then on GL...

Same pattern as the deuce. G-506 w/DUKW rims. scott

I dunno about current mfrs - but the Gama Goat used the same size tires as the DUKW, but with fewer plys.

Hope this helps,

Quack Quack... Jack Tomlin had a lifetime supply of Goat Tires...they are fine on a DUKW unless you combat load it with Ordnance and Troops...

Is that your bomb truck, rice? Has is been restored since the pic was taken in 2005?

Yes its mine and no its still looks the same.I have nice sheetmetal for it and need to find some Gamma goat tires, to really kick off the build. On the back burner so to speak. Scott

I have some of those bolt together rims in the 20" flavor on my rock buggy (deuce axles).
