Anyone ever done this? I'm about to trade some old 31" Super Swamper Thornbirds for a set of my choice of 35" Geolander MT's or 35" Dunlop Mud Rovers. I want to run 35's but I'm low on money and cant buy a lift kit at the moment. I'm wondering how much trimming I would need. If it's just a...
The other day my camo love-machine started to get a little salty on me. Started doing this whole thumping deal when I go over, like...5 mph. The faster I go, the more it thumps. I cant really tell where it's coming from. But I can feel it in the floorboards and it seems like it's somewhere up...
Aw....guess I'm gunna be the first to ask. :p
What does TP mean? Mine says TP-40.
I also have what looks like sharpie on my door panel that's a 0 with a / through it.

My plate is mounted on the tailgate, drivers' side. But when I drop the tailgate, it aint visible anymore. Which I'm guessing I would need to...
Great looking truck! I've got Thornbird tires too...and those are louder than the truck at highway speeds on stock mufflers! I always wondered what that smell was when driving after a while...never would have thought it was the tires cooking off. I know the rubber is soft, but that's just...
I got it working! Started right up. I used the AC60G plugs. $75 for all 8. None of the GPs had a ohm reading. I also bypassed the resistors. Only problem is, I heard something buzz (after the seatbelt buzz went off) when I was letting the plugs cycle. I cant hear the relay clicking on or...
Not sure if he still gets on here or not, but I just bought an M1009 from him. The M1010 looks AWESOME! He cut out the back of a cab off a junker truck and welded it in there and put on a flat bed. Great looking truck.
Let me see if I got this right before I tackle it.
Remove the 24v feed on top. Run a wire (what gauge?) from the - terminal on the back battery. And test it?
