First day of plowing yesterday and already racked up a booboo. Chain length on passenger rear wheel caught the collar bolt on the air chamber spinning it plus 90 degree to the rear, snapping three air fittings. Learning curve again this year on excess chain length on tire chains. We haven't put...
I acquired a M1078 that came without the aluminum cargo bed side and rear panels (dropside assembly), and am trying to find out what the NSN part numbers are for finding these panels. I have the TM's that Patracy (spelling?) posted but am having some confusion deciphering the lingo for part(s)...
The M998 I drove at work today heated up to 240 and coolant appears to be leaking at the bottom of the water pump. Where can I pick up a thermostat and water pump/gaskets to replace the old ones? I work in the Klickitat River basin in SW Washington State.
Hi all,
Our M1008 plow truck wont engage in drive when put into 4 wheel drive. Tested this with wheel hubs unlocked. Looking through TM right now, but is this a switch issue? Happen to anyone out there? Mucho appreciated if someone can tell me how easy this is to fix.

Hey, I'm using the TM9-2320-289-34P to identify parts I need to buy for a M1008 drivetrain (and many thanks again to the Admin who posted these TM's!). How do you use the Part Number or Usable on Codes to find the right part number for an auto parts store?

The M998 that we have down here at work runs well, but is hard starting. I just picked up Champion 191 CH238 glowplugs for replacements, anybody out there use these? Or someone out there recommend something else? Should anything else besides glowplugs be changed?
We are also going to put a...
The starter on the hatchery's CUCV is going out. This is a stock 24v electrical system. The question I want to throw out there is where to go to replace the starter? Can you get a gear reduction starter for a 24v system through NAPA?
We also plan on doing the Doghead Relay upgrade when we...
Dunno if I worded the title right. My buddy showed me a screenshot printout of some surplus tires that are available for screening by govt programs. These are Goodyear Wranglers of the run-flat variety (should have kept a copy). The printout also said that there was was kit that could be ordered...
We have two M1008's at the fish hatchery where I work, one is our feed truck, the other set up as a plow truck. The plow truck of late has been popping out of 4 wheel drive, both in 4 low and 4 high. I looked over the TM in the site for this truck, an am thinking linkage problem? Anyone out...
I manage a salmon hatchery and have 2 M1008 Chevys for feed truck and snow plow duty vehicles. Both are non-modified 24 volt system vehicles. The problem (limit this to one here) is on one truck the voltage spikes after starting it, and one employee failed to note one of the batteries started to...
