    slow start issues with 6.2 diesel

    There is a test for plugs with them installed. Take a lighted tester put the point end to power and the ground clip to the terminal on the glow plug where the wire would hook up, if it lights up the plug is good if not its burned out. It saves some time. Take the same light tester and make sure...

    M1028 Rear Leaf Springs

    My buddy has a 1028 truck with 20000 miles he took the axles out of and is parting out the rest . The springs are still there. I'm sure he would part them out for a small fee and you pay shipping. Scott

    86 1008 injection pump part number check

    Does any one know if a DB2 5149 injection pump will work on a 86 6.2? I have a chance to pick a new one up for 300. I had a bad surging problem but it was fixed by changing the lift pump last night. The fuel pump arm pin bushing was half gone. Best 18 bucks I've spent runs way better but...

    Front wheel hop while braking?

    Dana 60's get the wobble from worn king pins and rod ends the steering stabilizers are needed to stop these. The steering stabilizer is probably original and worn. I would buy one of these before dumping money into other things. They are 31.00 and you need one if you have the wobbles.

    The mounts on the front are snow plow brackets. They were 9 1/2 inches from the ground at the bottom hole now they are 16+ to the bottom hole. I will have to make some lowering brackets to keep plowing that I can remove to wheel. When you do your lift you will need longer brake lines or to...

    New 5 inch lift. no tires yet. what do ya think

    I just finished my 4 inch lift with 16.5 x 10 rims and 36" hummer tires and it looks great. Did you put the spacers on the transfer case skid to the bottom of the frame to drop the transfer case? This helped with the short drive shafts on mine. Scott
