    2 12v or 1 24v Battery Tender?

    Hello all, I talked with a Battery Tender representative and they said a 24v battery tender would be used on a 2-battery system but I don't think they understood what I meant about the startup of the M1028 being 24v and the rest of the vehicle running on 12v. My dad is thinking two 12v battery...

    Turbo Matching

    Thanks for the help everyone. I will get pictures soon, it has been super busy. Martin, we believe it came with it blown but our neighboring department who has had deuces longer than us said it sounded like it was blown since we didn't have much power climbing the slight grade at a joint training.

    Turbo Matching

    Hello all, Our turbo on our deuce has blown out and after talking to the forestry service they said they have a truck they can cannibalize one off of but they are unsure if it will fit on our truck. I tried looking and I cannot find anything myself. The forestry service looked for answers and...

    Trouble cross referencing glow plug relay

    Thanks, Could this be why when I saw a guy putting one of these on a 1009 on youtube use a manual push button with a rounded relay?

    Trouble cross referencing glow plug relay

    Hello All, Our M1028 truck was recently inspected for the year at the fire company and the mechanic said the glow plug relay was bad. He said they are about 30.00 but told us we could install it ourselves to save on costs. He did not give any type of part number. I tried cross referencing the...

    Where to find "Door Molding"?

    Well that is from the 34p Technical Manual for the M1028 and so on. We did not see any seals on the doors when we went over the truck but both seals are missing from both doors and when it rains it comes in between the door and the top of the cab. What should be on a 1028?

    Where to find "Door Molding"?

    Hello all, Anyone know where to get the "Door Molding" part #2 on the image below? I looked up the part numbers on Autozone/Advance Auto and nothing comes up. I looked on ebay and found one for 45.00. Is this about right and if there is another number to look it up as, can I have it please? We...

    M1028 Won't Start Easily

    An update, the truck started fine on Wednesday after a fuel filter change, there was air getting into it. Not today, it is dripping back out of the fuel filter even after a diesel mechanic at our department made sure it was on, he can fix pretty much anything from heavy equipment to cars. It has...

    M1028 Won't Start Easily

    About the ether, we (my dad and I) told them that shouldn't have used it and it was a quick spray they said and it turned over nearly instantly, that is why my dad was thinking it was the glow plugs. We saw that they were only like 9.09 at our local AutoZone so we were not worried about that. We...

    M1028 Won't Start Easily

    I was just informed that our M1028 at the fire company won't start easily. This past Monday it started right up after letting the glow plugs warm up. Wednesday it wouldn't start even after glow plugs warmed up and they sprayed starting fluid and it started right up. We are thinking it could be...

    Tires for M1028

    I was told our pickup is a M1028 from this forum and the fire company got the truck from the DCNR federal excess vehicle program. It came with tires, but these are not the best for off-road locations like we are going to use this truck for. It has a 200 gallon water tank in rear so it will sink...

    Where to find tail light gasket

    Where to find tail light gasket

    Thank-you very much for your offer! I will pm you an address. Apparently in Eastern, Pa they are hard to come by, we didn't think it would be hard to find either and they wouldn't be missing if the paint shop would have put them back on when they painted the truck!

    Where to find tail light gasket

    Anyone know where to find the tail light gaskets for a 1985 M1028? I have done searches online and called local stores/used car/junk yards and no luck. Advance Auto and Autozone told me to check those places and I have not had any luck. Does anyone know if any vendors have them on here? I am...
