I asked about this previously an was given good advice. The windows will be about half a tug short of exploding in your face by the time you get the latches latched. The new gaskets take their new shape quickly. and that issue goes away before you know it. Park with the window facing the...

Driving home in four wheel drive with something in the transfer case broken may well not make a lot of noise. All the parts no longer driven by the engien would still be driven by the wheels, yielding very little relative motion. Some serious damage (broken shafts...) would in fact be very...

Doors are nto that bad weight wise. Take the first screw out of the top hinge, then put it back half way in. Remove the remaining seven screws. Close the door so it overlaps the floor just a smidge, you can keep it with one arm while you remove the pre-loosened remaining screw. The top hinge...

For shipping, I can't help. For storage without a top installed... Go to the local home improvement store. Grab two sticks of crappy canadian 2X3 in the eight foot length. Get eight foot, not the precuts. Then grab an inexpensive 6X8 tarp in the least offensive color they have. A box of 1/8...

I believe at some point in the service life of the M44 platform, those were introduced. There was an MWO with instructions for how to drill those holes. Newer hardware came with them. At least that's how I understand it. There was also something (Might not have been a MWO, maybe Connie said...

I could be wrong, but I think the only beds that were tagged that way were the upfit parts for the cab and chassis trucks. Otherwise they'd simply have been inclusive within the dash mounted data tag.

All the original was is a (good) rubber bumper contacted by a pad on the axle mounting hardware. If you don't have the bump stops, you've more than likely still got the mounting holes. If you don't have the axle hardware with the pads... Probably one of the Timbren load boosting rubber baby...

I doubt that'd be an issue at all. The crank pulley is good sized, an increase for some applications, not a downgrade for any I can think of. The Multifuel engine does most of it's driving at twelve to twenty two hundred RPM, that's way over what you need to get what an alternator has to give...

A lot of good answers.... Here's the SHORT version to tell in an instant. Go look at your deuce front wheel (where the ring is on the outside). At the split, you can see inside where the tire is visible in the gap. That's the safer of the two types in question, although all due respect is in...

That skipping would be a chunk of shredded plastic stuck between a valve and a valve seat. The original question, how hard can it suck? First of all it can't. There is no such thing as vacuum. Vacuum is simply pressure that's lower than atmosphere. How hard the atmosphere can force that cap...

I think when Cummins did their propane only B series they put spark plugs and a distributor in it. It looks an awful lot like their dual fuel B series, which is gas or LPG and has spark plugs. I don't think propane works well with compression ignition.

Not air over hydraulic. Full hydraulic with air assist. You'd be changing a lot more than the wheel ends, the entire thing is different. It's very much like a the old hydrovac units, except instead of vacuum on the back side of the booster, it puts pressure on the front. And of course a...

The old switches have been known to fail in such a way as to allow brake fluid leaks, of a potentially catastrophic volume. They're not a "take it off the road right now" kind of thing, the same risk applies to master cylinders, wheel cylinders, etc. They are a good idea to update though...

If you want to fix that, you've got to break it first. If you want to make it better, you probably can. With a leak that slow, it could be ANYWHERE, and odds are you'll find that it's not so much one big leak, as the cumulative effect of a bunch of minimal leaks. Soapy water in a spray bottle...

Hope you never have to open that hood to diagnose or correct a no start. Or an air leak condition. I'd bet that'd be heavy without help. Just to point out, I'm sure most have already figured this. Yes, gas strut assemblies do come with a rating, but it's in a straight line. If you want to...

Yes I have used that tool. No, it is not a quality product. it works fine for light stuff where you don't really need it. GENTLY pressed ball joints, wheel studs, non-stuck universal joints WHERE IT FITS, that sort of thing. While not "needed" for these things, it does speed up the process...

I've thought about it a good deal. It MAY help with rattly hood hinges, it would surely help with opening the hood, but I'm very concerned about two things. First, where the hinges bolt to the cowl, that's prone to fatigue and cracking without the extra tension all the time. And the closing...

Drill doctors are not magic. Plan on a little practice. Not too much though. After that, it's quick and easy and painless. Even on a bad day. A very, very recommendable product. Re-splitting or converting to split points is priceless if you're working with metal.

Easy now!!!! What are you saying? :mrgreen:

I'm going to pick on the deuce, because it's what I'm familiar with, but the others are principally the same. Weight ratings are a lot different than they were back when they were given their classifications. Back when the M35 was new, it's civilian weight rating would have been (or would have...
