    M1008 kicks off a helluva day!

    This post is about 5 years old, but more in price range I was thinking. I paid $35.00 for a new water pump from Autozone with lifetime guarantee for a Civy Ford V8 in November. (they had cheaper, but not LT guar) Have a bunch of these I was gonna list on Eekbay and the like, but I thought I'd...

    M1008 kicks off a helluva day!

    Sounds like its gonna run about 500 to get her running again. Should be a LOT less if you are able to do the work yourself.

    If alignment is out, 300+ miles could take a LOT of tread off front tires, which are not that cheap.

    Steering wheel off center

    When you broke thru, ice probably put weight on a tie rod, bending it. With the wheel that far out, toe is really messed up, and will scrub the tires, causing them to wear fast. Needs to be checked by an alignment shop. Strongly recommend against straightening bent steering parts.

    output voltage crowbar

    Jim, some parts of the country are running 130/260, so it should be ok. Supply house I use stocks 130 volt bulbs. I recommend some type of approved surge protection at the main panel.

    goldneagle's M923 recovery and modification thread

    When you got an overheat, you turn on the heater full blast and open the windows. You want to give the engine all the cooling you can.

    Draft Pads

    Storm, I got your original message before you modified it. I doubt you would have gotten into trouble. The state of Kentucky is a great state with a Lot to offer. Stay away from cities, lotsa land to park & run MV's, no ordinances forbiding parking.

    electrical problems

    Bad battery connections or corroded wires. Clean battery terminals and connectors, check wiring for corrosion under insulation near terminal ends. Charge up batteries, reinstall wiring.

    Draft Pads

    Coat the pad and pedal with KY lubricant and they slide right on, rinse with warm water and your done. For 25 years or so, I have been doing it a bit different - works a treat.:popcorn: Coat the pad and pedal with KY lubricant and it slides right in, rinse with warm water when you're done.

    anybody towed a m105a2 with a 1990 jeep cherokee loredo?

    There is a lot you CAN do, but the question is SHOULD you. Everything will be fine, as long as there is not an emergency. When you find out is the time that guy in the left lane realizes he is going to miss his exit and cuts you off, or the texter drifts into your space, etc. When you have to...
