For a tow rig? Youll get to your destination 3 weeks later than anything else lol. Although you could carry like a months worth of supplies with that thing.

 

PROGRESS!!!!

we bobbed it, lifted it 8" got the steering started..ordering Stazworks wheels tomorrow!



he is 6 feet tall..AND..thats on the stock tires..it will be another like 5" taller..



thats it at ride height with the 53s on it the rear will come up but didnt have it on stands..

 

Looks great. Straight beast!!

 

wow, one questions. How do you expect to haul it lol

 

haul?

DRIVE IT SON!

and if we need to haul it he has a low boy 18 wheeler :)

 

Kyle Want!!!

 

that would worl

 

dude its sweet... what are youj gonna do with the back leave it open or put the bed on it? There isnt a whole lot of room in the front fenders for flexing

 

no need to flex lol

the bed needs to be cut down and put back on...

 

I just about bought one the other day, but I don't have a place to park it other than out of the farm 45 miles away, my mom wouldn't be happy on that sitting out front either would the neighbors and if I bought one I would drive it all the time, just because I can....

 

most deuce and a halfs come with the rotor and calipar on the diffferential. you have to have brakes all the way around for it to be street legal. if it's street legal you lucked out. that's an expensive conversion.

Nice find though.

 

What kind of mileage?

 

this has normal brakes..so its street legal just the height and width is what we are worried about..

Josh -- the truck has a new motor in it from 91 it has like less then 1000 but of course more on the truck itself but not many hours..the motor is clean no leaks or old age cracking on rubber pieces..ill snap a pic of it

 

I know a guy drives around here drives, his around all the time, but his is stock as he bought it from the auction. The military drives them on the street here and the cops don't pull them over, so if they pulled me over driving one I would be mad. lol

 

I mean Miles per gallon

 

HA MPG on a deuce? its gallons per mile lol

really tho im sure you could get atleast 300 on a tank since they are large tanks

 

Damn Evan thats badass!

 

dude, thatd "bob'd" one you posted is sick!

 

would like a surplus 1ton. or a Cut V aka blazer

 

ah -- its like a 50 gallon tank and i think it got like 300+ out of it so like 10-14 i think..which isnt BAD for what you got..but loosing the weight of the axle, and shorting the frame and bed took out a lot but putting it back in with tires so it equals out im hoping to get near the same as before but we will see...

 

Nice. There's a guy at my community college who drives one everyday. It's funny seeing 1/2 ton pickups park around it. It really puts it into perspective. I can't wait to see it with the tires!

 

Pinion brakes are an aftermarket thing. These trucks come with Monster drums.

 

i got those on my 8.8, locks up quick and adds winter weight

 

thats it Andrew -- I have never worked around rockwells but they are HUGE...

he called stazworks today but the guy who does the orders took the day off..so blah take two tomorrow!
