    I see okay. Here's another question about the gen lights. What makes them come on during start then after your started up they shut off? I use to have them both working a few years ago, but now gen two doesn't even light up and gen one stays lite the whole time the truck is running.

    More electric problems.

    What was it for? It doesn't make any sense to me why they would ground the positive board.

    More electric problems.

    Okay I started working on the m1009 recently. I have quite a few electrical problems especially with the charging system again. For now I'm going to ask about this ground wire I found on the terminal boards. From what I have seen on the alternator wire diagram it's a "suppressor". I was cleaning...

    Tie rod question.

    Okay I need to replace my tie rod on my m1009. It's bend really bad so that it slimly scraps the differential cover. Now it doesn't seem to be a flimsy thin rod. It's really thick I wish to replace it as the same one. (I will take some pictures of the rod latter) It's not the original stock bar...

    Replacing the rear main seal and many questions

    Well the seal came with a shoe I found a small trick that didn't help this time but, did every other time. I like to use a large straw to help guild it along. The problem with the 6.2 is I didn't have the room for the straw. It was a really tight fit and it was really hard to get it in.
