Thanks! Now I've just got to figure out how to mount it!

Not that one. I should have given a better description. It's a plug on a wire that's like - up in the dash. It is located under/in the dash to the right of the test connector. I found it when I was doing cleanup work on the truck. I asked a guy with an M1009 to check it out and he said that it...

I saw this old post but I'm trying to figure out the same thing. I do have a radio connector under the dash of my truck, and I'm trying to figure out the proper radio and antenna for my 84 M1008. Any luck on your search?

Wow. That pic explains it all. Thanks! Edit: Just ordered straps off of eBay!

Can someone help me with identification of parts (items?) that fit behind the seat of an M1008? As you can see in my pic, it looks as if there are specific items that fit in the brackets. I've tried to Google for pics of the truck kitted out with these items, but either they aren't out there or...

Thanks! Everything on the truck - that I know of - is original except for the lift and tires. I was really looking forward to the Military Truck Show in Denton, but I guess it was cancelled because of Coronavirus. As soon as I get a few of these small issues addressed, I’m going to make a trip...

Thanks for the ID. You can see where the tab has already been soldered to the part at one time and I don't know if it can be reapplied. I guess we could try it. I mean it's not working now so what have we got to lose. I found a used one at HW, and there are several new on eBay. It's also good to...

Was tracking down the grounding errors that we were discussing on the other thread and came across a couple of things. I think the broken part in the picture below is: AC Delco 6.2L Diesel Cold Advance Solenoid Fuel Injection Id Could be the issue with staying running when the truck is...

Wow. Thanks for that advice. I'll get on this right away.

Well, I started my truck again today and the Gen1 light is back. Looks to be a wonderful intermittent issue.

Thanks! I was originally from Birmingham before moving to NC. I hope all is well in the Land of Cotton!

Thanks. I'll check that ribbon. The light was working for a week or so. I figured that something could have wiggled loose, but it's hopefully the bulb.

I'm going to check all fuses and grounds tomorrow. Just going to go over every wire I see under the hood.

I've had my truck for less than a month and I've only driven it a few times, so please excuse me if these are dumb questions. When I first got the truck and I'd turn on the key, both Gen1 and Gen2 lights were on. The last two times I've cranked it, only the Gen2 light is on. I would normally...
