I hope you and your wife enjoy this trip with no trouble on the way. It is probably a once in a lifetime that you will talk about when you are old.
If you've never been there ease into the east coast. They are different once you cross the Mississippi (not bad, different even though VA more...
I was wondering what happened to you and saw an empty apartment, so I figured you went for it. Keep us informed of your adventure. Thanks for serving and catch me some bass when you get there. I miss the bass.

I don't have PTSD except with...
My M1008 speakers sounded terrible and my radio is an 8-track. I sprayed electric cleaner heavily on the speakers and to my surprise they sound great now.
I needed a AM/FM/CD radio and bought a inexpensive Boss from Walmart. I also bought a hideaway antenna and wanted to pass it along. I...
Just a note; after reading for days I learned five ways to hook up a tach. I bought the Tiny Tach as it seems to be the easiest installation and has replacement parts readily available. I wanted a cool guage tach, but price was a consideration too and it doesn't need calibration as far as I...
I have been studying installing a tach for awhile now. It seems the two easiest ways so far is the Tiny Tach that uses the fuel line and the Auto Meter that attaches a band to the alternator. A more professional job might be the Dakota Digital Tach Interface.
I am very hesistant of splicing...
I found those already. After increasing the size I think I see what I am looking for. Someone had a pic of just the port and the letter designation for each hole and that is what I was seeking. Thanks for helping.
I've seen it before and searched for 3 days and can't find it. I need the STE-ICE Diagnistic Port Diagram. The one that shows what the holes are for.
Your help will be greatly appreciated. I might have seen it on another forum, but I think it was Steel Soldiers.

Dayco didn't like the 15573 part # so I went with:
The other belts you list are GTG
I also ordered some belts from RockAuto trying to get the Gatorbacks and they substituted my order. They sent the right numbers, just not what I wanted. Even...
I looked last night and you can see the tach buffer under the dash near the ste/ice. It has a case with a card in it similar to the gp controller card, but smaller. Supposedly the brown wire is the right one. Mine is wrapped and I would have to do some more looking to find the right one. I...
I've read everything without a clear understanding on how to install a tach. I am buying a tach and trying the wire between the tach buffer and ste/ice. If that don't work I will try the Dakota Diesel Tach Inteface, DSL-1, and try to get signal from my DS alternator.
If that don't work I...
I got the copper cables off EBAY, but the quality is outstanding. They have 5/16 and 3/8 ends so you have to make sure you know what you want.
For the long negative to the 24 volt junction bar I ordered 4' with 5/16 and 3/8 ends. Pos to neg cable was 2' with 3/8 ends. (2' was almost too...
Since I retired I have traded my military fitness for corrections fitness and I am not a slim as I was. In my defense I am 53. :whistle:
I bought a 15" OEM steering wheel off EBAY after researching and deciding it would work on my M1008. It not only worked, but is a pleasure to drive around...
I have always had white smoke when I start my M1008 and understood it was unburnt fuel. The white smoke was only on startup for a short period and not ever while driving.
I have been cleaning connections and recently installed some copper battery cables with military connectors. The only...
I use it in all my vehicles. My M1008 ran so rough I thought I needed an IP. Not anymore. My Ford always gets the check engine light and needs oxygen sensors. Not anymore after using Seafoam.
2 cans when I have a problem, then I run most of the fuel out before refueling. One can every...
I was looking at your pictures and wonder why you don't do the gp resistor bypass? It has been one of the better things I've done to make my truck more reliable and is easy to do.
I almost suggested the 12 volt junction for power. I am hoping I never have to mess with my fuse box as it looks...
