So complicated yet so simple!

I just wanted to say thank you for taking the time to keep posting videos about your Deuce. I am getting a pole building installed mid-summer and plan to buy a deuce as soon as its finished. I really am learning a lot from you. Thanks again!.

The one that always baffled me, the "ignition" switch. Guys, it's a DIESEL. That means, no ignition! (More correctly, compression ignition. Something you have no control over.) Yes, I've put quite a few miles on Deuces, and would REALLY like to get one. Fun truck to drive! Oh, watched your "brake" video, and had to laugh. Yes, "conventional" wisdom, is when you lose pressure, your brakes lock up. We both know, that isn't how a Deuce works! OK, some of you might not know this, but a Deuce has 4 rifle holders. Those wing nuts on the windshield, will hold an M-16, by the handle. Position the rifle nose down, and slip over the wingnut. steve

The I believe the strong aged canvas smell attracts them. lol!

"you don't want to leave the windows rolled down. I don't know why but every time, cat pee inside!" SO TRUE! :D I think maybe cats just love the epicness as much as we do, or maybe there's catnip in the paint!

thank you man this really makes me want to get my deuce and a half running again

Great series of videos, dude. Good job.

I want one of these so bad and these vids are AWESOME! I'll hopefully be getting one in the next 6 months to a year.

I love your vdo of Duce truck I like this truck very very much I like this truck shape body and all his voices especially this truck horn I wish I have money to buy this marvelous strong beautiful ever truck I appreciate also the manufacturer

ok I can say this I am addicted to your channel and cant wait to see the next one

Thanks for sharing this!

Awesome video. Ex army mechanic love those trucks glad to see you didn't ruin it by bobbing it. Ill have mine in less than 6 months

I love this stuff, man.

Great job, thank you.

Love your videos..TRUE AMERICA..i love EVERY THING Diesel powered...i would own a deuce and half if my wife would let me but..oh well..SUSCRIBED

Nice video , good title , now i want a deuce too :)

once again, great job, lets see some injector lines replaced! comon!

Yes it is and I'm going to change the pull soon hopefully it does help like everyone says

Another thing to when it is getting warm outside is to leave the windows up and lock the windshield out about 4-5 inches. That will actually let fresh air in to kinda pressurize the cab and it will keep most of the engine heat out. Someone suggested it to me and was really surprised at how much cooler it was inside.

Excellent presentations in all your Deuce videos. I am still not certain whether you have a subdued irony behind your style, nonetheless, all is very informative and entertaining.

That would be cool, Thanx.

Great videos that is the main part I wanted to see! Now I just have to find a m35a2 for sale in ontario

On level pavement driving below 25 MPH if you start out in third gear and low range then shift slowly to high range, you can drive without shifting the gears. Then before stopping slowly shift back to low range. Kind of like a two speed transmission if you get tired of shifting. I learned how to do this from a mechanic at the motor pool. It is easy to do, but you have to use the clutch shift slow and so as not to grind the gears.

I have heard you can run gasoline in them as long as you add used oil to it.

Max safe rpm is 2600. Cruising rpm is where you're comfortable. I've heard around 2200-2300. All trucks are different.

You can run 100% wmo on a warm day, but as soon as it gets below 60 degrees (Fahrenheit) you should start mixing in some diesel to thin it out. (Pure Wmo makes A LOT of black smoke FYI)

Good info. I've never been more than 50% WMO and during the fall I'm usually running a little old lawnmower gas mixed in with it.

Make a video of it hauling stuff or what you use it for on the farm!

BC as a owner of a duce its a experince

Thanks

I wish someone would make a video on how to shorten the steering column

More videos please. Drive train brakes etc,,,,,,,,thanks!!!

Have you thought about a two-way radio for your Deuce? How big is the generator? If I were to buy one, I’d probably put a CB and an HF or VHF transceiver in there (I’m a ham operator and I also like old military radios).

xD my 73 f250 has the same "AC" kick panels

Hey Sciencescifigaming, how about going over the motor (make, model, H.P., etc.)? I have a Int. tandem dump w/ a Cummins that's similar except for no live front axle.

Is there a power steering unit for M35a2 that is DOT approved.

Nice I love my deuce it was used in 12 Hollywood movies everything from hulk to day the earth stood still i modded my BACK inside of mine like house have fireplace and propane stove . Mine was a toc truck had all the radio equipment and bullet proof wall pannels You can see it if you click my profile . keep up the good work . I ps i hate cats in my deuce lol

What about the duce in a halfs that are for sale around $2000 and the seller.whether a surplus place online seller owner etc says it runs.

My belly rubs on the steering wheel.

SO what can you do, or should you do, if it is hydro locked when you bump the starter during the engine stop lever pulled out procedure? Is this something that anyone with a deuce can do, to get it out of hydro lock before going to the shop??

@deuceandguns

If the engine is hydro locked it's time to start turning wrenches. Easy, fast, but temp fix is to remove all the injectors and crank it to push all the fluid out of the cylinders then reinstall and drive off. The permanent fix is to diagnose the issue and replace where it starting with a leaking injector and ending up at the head gasket.

What's on the steering column right by the steering wheel. At 2:30 It's at the bottom of the screen.

That's the turn signals and hazard lights. the big green bulb there flashes when using the turn signal because you can't hear the ticking with the engine running.

Why don the call 5 tons double deuce

My deuce and a half is a tad bit different on the interior mainly because it's been handed down and some of the knobs and levers have been changed. Is it a problem to have a buzzing noise when I turn on the ignition?

no its air pressure warning its fine

So how do you cycle from lo to hi beams? Does that light lever simply enable them and you have to use another switch to turn them on, what's that 3rd lever to the left of the release do? Too small to read the label...

Nope. Old school headlight dimmer on the floor. I need to do a video just on that complicated light switch. I think the side you're referring to is for the instrument light brightness.

Awesome!!!! These trucks are so cool! I love old school vehicles (I'm 21) and words cannot describe how bad I want one of these! I am a very independent person. I like knowing that if something happens, and I need to "head for the hills" I can take care of myself. Yes, that's what I was referring to. I made out a "Dim" label but wanted to make sure.

That's why you should make sure you maintain AND by the way don't EVER disconnect the low air warning alarm like some folks I knew did back in the day. "I hate the loud noise!" Really? No worries. It's only there to keep you from getting KILLED! ;) lol

I'd steal one just so I could say I took a deuce.

Hey i live in the suberbs and my parents say i cant get one cause they are to big lol any alternative to a big off raod truck that isnt a ford or pick up kind of thing??

I have an answer for you about your tachometer. I was reading a thread on steelsoldiers.com and found a online pdf manual about the danger sticker on the tachometer . It states the Top RPM limit under load is 2600rpm for the 2.5 and 5 ton vehicles. So the danger sticker tail should be at 2600rpm not the 3000rpm that is on your Deuce and a half. Hope this helps. Here is the link: www.steelsoldiers.com/upload/M35/PSMultifuelOperator.pdf P.S. The part about the tachometer is on page 13 once you open the pdf file. You might have to register and log in for it to work. It is free.

Thanks! I knew it had been scratched off at some point but wasn't sure if there was a reason for this or just a random thing.

Lol, "cat-pee...inside"

how much used motor oil can you put mixed in with the gas or diesel?

@billbergen9169

About 50%

If at all possible could you go a bit more in depth on the light switch panel?

And I thought my FJ40 was bad.

could you provide information in a video, or at least point me in the proper direction of some information as to what can be a viable alternative fuel source, and how to prepare it, for the multifuel engine?
