I used a 4" Rough Country lift on mine, $400.00 with shocks delivered to the house. Be careful when installing the steering arm extender, if the spring and bushing under the steering arm become un seated you may end up with death wobble when you put it back together, this usually happens because...
Hello,
I was hoping there was someone out there that could guide me along withthe dash light bulb change out, I would like to upgrade the lights for extended night opperations.
Looking for part #'s of what would be a direct replacement and if anyone has any suggestions for upgrades?

good morning, I have always shifted mine into and out of the loc positions while in park. Most if not all of the parts you may need can be obtained at the local parts store as there is nothing fancy about an M880, some of them run the heavy duty altenator / generator with external power source...
If you have'nt already change the coil and get an electronic ignition module from Pertronix it will cure any ignition issues you may have, I installed both pieces on my M37 4 years ago and she starts within 2 to 3 revolutions everytime, no more cranking till the cows come home to get her to fire.

There are many more things to consider along the way building and driving both I will...
If you spean a minute and search around google there's a guy in CT very talented who has done what you're talking about doing, he has made 4 door duece's and 5-ton cummins 4 doors, some short tucks with custom beds ect.
He has a web site I thinks it's www.babyj.us ?? I will double check and...
same thing happened to me last week, I headed over to NAPA and had to buy the whole filter just to get the flat gasket, they told me the gaskets were not available separately?
Anyway we're back up and running with no leaks : )
Good evening all,
Just wondering if there is any advantage to bypassing the FDC? I run diesel and will play around with WMO and ATF in the future maybe french fry oil as well.
Thanks for the advice.
