    M998 6.2 litre smells bad

    Look under the truck and see if it has a cat. if it does it is a sign that it may be going bad. option 1 is to replace it. option 2 is to remove it. A replacement is around $500 ish.

    Findlay OH 2016 Military show. May 20-22nd

    We have not in the past done SS shirts for Findlay due to it NOT being a sanctioned SS event, just a gathering of members and friends at a show. Having that said if someone wanted to do shirts I do not think that would be a issue if you checked with the powers that be.

    9:00 tires on a M1008.

    The reason to run the ND 900 tire on my M1008 is that I have two brand new ones and a set of rims. The truck is NOT used on the road at all. Only at Haspin and will be becoming my new snow plow. The truck does have a brand new set of BFG 33" for road use if the day comes. I just wanted to try...

    9:00 tires on a M1008.

    Front end/Rear end Swap

    Kenny is correct 100%. when I slapped in M1009 axles in my M1008 I took the yoke off the 14SF and installed it on the 10 bolt so I could use the stock drive shaft. Yes the splines and size of the pinon shaft is the same on the 10 and 14SF axles. The 14FF is different but also uses the same 1350...

    Front end/Rear end Swap

    You can NOT flip a leaf spring. How the leafs are stacked if you flip it it will just spread apart and not hold any weight. if you need more spring install a add a leaf, if you just want need a little more height install a Zero rate lift block. I installed both a extra stock leaf and a block...

    Water-methanol injection system on a 6.2L NA engine

    In the 6.2 family of engines it would only be good for getting a few more MPG's. It would not be worth the effort in making more HP. You would have to crank the injection pump to make more power. When cranked and on meth that engine will only put out 200 on the high side while melting down on...

    Gasoline in a 6.2 CUCV what?

    up to 10% gas wont hurt a thing. GM and Volkswagen use to state to add 10% gas to diesel fuel to aide in anti jelling. I have a feeling you are hearing a 6.2 diesel for the first time. They are very loud engines and sound like they are going to fall apart from day one. Change the oil and...
