    Dismounting Tires With HiLift Jack

    Great use of a hi-lift. I bought this last summer when I changed out all my tires. But it was a heck of a lot cheaper last summer. It's worth it's wait in gold and once you get the feel for it, usually pops the bead in one or two swings. What made it hard was doing it in July when it was...

    Wrong trailer for yard work?

    I do not have a movie clip, but I bet it took me a half hour backing them all up and around my truck at our campground. I tend to wake up early in the morning when everyone else is still sleeping. I get bored with myself and my curiosity usually wins over and I just have to try something for...

    Rear Diff Smells like a Sewer PLUS: ID these diff parts???

    Looks like the pins for the locking mechanism and cam. Question is, where is the rest of the cam and locking mechanism. Bad smell, howling, broken Gov-lock parts. You need to rebuild it. It will not be lasting much longer.

    Wrong trailer for yard work?

    You just need to add a m332 in the middle to even out the tongue weight. You really need to plan ahead when stopping. :grd:

    Took the wife out in the Old truck.

    Looks like a nice mine. Is there anything around that shaft warning you that it is there? If you call the BLM and give them the GPS location, they will come out and fence it. I love seeing old mines, but hate to think of someone falling into it, that does not see it there.

    Qestioned GL as to source of their info.

    Everything I have came with a Vehicle Classification Inspection document. There the unit inspector lists all that is wrong and the cost of parts and labor to repair, and final reason for turn-in. Now Iowa might be different, as there is not a G/L employee there, but this could be where G/L gets...

    Dangerous Situation Today With My M1009

    Do yourself a favor, get some brake clean and clean out the grease so you can see what you are dealing with, get a good picture of the axle spline. To me, it looked like the the splines were all buggered up, making it difficult to get the rest of the lockout gear off. You are going to need...

    Dangerous Situation Today With My M1009

    Get the rest of the lockout off the axle then you should see the nut. I could not tell by the video but either you have a snap ring on the tip of the axle holding that inner spline on, or the teeth of the axle are messed up, preventing you from sliding it off the axle. Clean the edge of that...

    1008 cargo cover

    I imagine the cover will drop your mileage. A regular cab height fiberglass or metal topper would probably increase your mileage.

    Dangerous Situation Today With My M1009

    You may want to teach your wife to pump the brakes if they go to the floor. For normal street driving the 14bolt would be overkill, and more work to switch over then to repair you bearing and spindle. Same goes for the lockouts, no heavy off roading, any lockout will work for you you.

    OH NOOO! Gotta change my meds again!

    I see a new trend starting now. Some with the Chevy SS stripes, others with the Mopar tail wrap, and yet others with the off centered Lemans stripe. I like it

    M109 Power Cable

    Mine had a huge 100amp panel in the back, so I have a 4 prong plug on my truck. There was a blank plate below that, and that is where I added my stainless 30amp marine plug. I had doubt about ever finding a good price on that 4 prong plug at the top.
