Hey yall, Ive been using my 1009 as a DD lately and just noticed some grease coming out of the hub to locking hub gap. the grease seems to be oozing out of the gap. I took the hub off and everything looks fine inside so I put it back together. I noticed that there is a little play in the locking...

Well finally got the tranny out, TC replaced, and mounted back in and she LIVES! It wasn't too bad only took 3 bottle jacks and 3 floor jacks and a couple of ratchet straps. Oh and it only took me 7 hours... good think I don't do this for a living. Ended up using one jack on the front oil pan...

Ok, I got the working TC off the blown engine and going to install that today. I disconnected my drive shafts and bell housing bolts, speedo cable shift linkage and all other connected entities. I do not have a transmission jack... what is the best way to go about getting the transmission slid...

Got the brand-used engine in today woopie! All of my buddies were busy so I had to wiggle it in alone. All went well So I thought... I bled all of the injectors and she started right up wonderfully, It's nice to have a running engine again! After a good while of idling and warming up I put the...

Got the engine out today, thanks for the input worked great. I have to replace the inner fender as well as it was rusted really bad. The other motor is preped and ready to go in but now Im thinking I want to put in the 700r4 while I have everything out. Anybody know where I can find a tv...

Awesome! For some reason I believed sliding the engine off the the TC would be hard without any rotational play. I will set to it this evening!

well my truck "chuncky" finally blew up with the ailing engine that was in her. Pretty certain it was cam bearing failure and we will know soon enough. I have a spare engine ready to go but had a few questions. The motor is siezed up pretty good and i think its that way for good. Does this mean...

I had a similar issue when I first purchased my m1028, truck would not shift into third at all though. However I dropped the valve body and inspected all the parts. the direct clutch spring which holds pressure on the direct clutch piston was broken and the piston was cracked. If your piston...

Yes, I noticed the gasser dash, this one would have had a tach mounted on a bracket uder te dash if I am correct. At the very least I would want to add a tach. Ideally i would try to find a proper dash for it. Anyone know of someone with servicible dash assembly for an affordable price? ~gimp...

Haha! First post gave me the chills.... Thanks for the input. I have not been around many of these to know for sure. Help from more trained ears is very appreciated!

I have been looking around at M35a2 multifuels for awhile and came across this one on craigslist. I lnow there are many exteremly helpful threads on buying a duece amd what to look for but I had the guy make a video/ walkaroud of it and think it may be helpful to hear a second opinion on if the...

I have checked the vacle under the oil filter housing. Thought that was the drainback valve... I just want to make sure when I change my pump I take care of everything I can. Usually these relif valves have little springs that after sitting for a few years then being used could break. Earlier...

Hey all, trying to find the tm for locating the oil pressure relife valve. Either I keep overlookin it or am stupid. Could someone point me in the right direction for a diagram that shows where it is and how to ensure it is functioning? I thought it is found under the oil pump but am not sure...

Chance I can help you out with pickup, i cannot transport to you though. Let me know if interested or needed. Im not too far from WPAFB for the time being.

cleaned all my junction conections with a wire dremel tool and then polished them up. Then I replaced all the wire leads to the batteries. cleaned the posts and got new insulative caps all around. Connected everything up and viola! My voltmeter fuse blew (10 amp bottom of fuse box) but i...

My 84 m1008 has an electrical gremlin. Truck was driving fine, went to start it to go to work the next day. Key in on position wait light and buzzer come on. Gave it 7 seconds from my manual glow plug button and turned the key to start the truck and CLICK. Nothing. Voltmeter drops from 24 to...

are you loosing oil at all? if your oil levelseems to be decreasing check the oil cooler line which runs from the passenger side side near the oil filter forward near the fender then into the radiator. the line is known for problems. The line transitions from hard line to rubber and the junction...

awesome thanks for the tip on "splicing". ill give that a shot, if that doesnt hold to the pressure then i can clamp a threaded plug or something into it as rustystud suggested! Im excited about the truck but also a little worried that ill miss my m1008!

hey there, went and looked at a deuce that if all goes well I will be picking up this weekend. Air leaks are a common problem as ive read many times. This deuce has a cracked air line that goes from the junction to the air pressure guage that lets all the air out becauce it is almost in half. I...
