Went and picked up a ton and a quarter of rock. Truck drove great, actually seemed to love the weight. When I got home I unloaded some and went to hop in the back up, and noticed this bolt broken off and laying just inside the driver front tire. The threads are obviously broken, it seems to be...

On my way home from work today, all was running well until I turned onto the gravel to my house. When letting completely off the throttle there was a wuh wuh wuh sound that was low and fairly powerful, sounded like some kind of exhaust leak close to the engine since it was very rhythmic. The...

So my daily driver 08 which I named Warpig gave me a fantastic start to the week. Woke up this Monday morning, got ready for work and fed the local animal crew. Went out to start the truck to warm up and let the chickens out to find something, prolly a coon, had pried the coop door open and...

I am fairly new to diesels and have learned a ton from you guys, many thanks for my saved dollars and healthy 1008. I'd known about the runaway diesel concept but hadn't thought of it happening to my cucv till just today. I'm still pretty unfamiliar with the IP system used on these engines, so...

Ok so here's a topic on the 700r4 conversion I haven't seen and am currently arguing with myself about. If a guy doesn't already have a core, would it be better for a guy to find a junker trans and take it to a trans shop to have rebuilt, or order a new/rebuilt trans from many of the online...

Ok, so I know after research I want to swap a 700r4 into my m1008. I have read many threads on it and the process, the bracket, etc. I ran across an ad for a pull out tranny supposedly rebuilt 1k miles ago with new torque converter out of a 94 6.5l diesel. Guy says it won't shift out of first...

PO of my 87 m1008 did some modifications to the GP system. It is now push button manual operated. I didn't mind this but got to thinking after installing some new ac60gs, seeing as I don't know when the gp's are up to temp I could be cycling them excessively. I could also not be cycling them...

Ok, so I searched about headlight upgrade options and I came up with 3. The sylvanias, the lmc h4 with the upgraded harness, and I read something of a Hella E series. A search for Hella E series isn't turning up much. So can anyone chime in on the best solution for my dim headlights in deer...

Ok, so my rear battery died on me but luckily the front had enough in her to get the truck (m1008) started not once but twice. I'm pretty sure these are civy batteries but there is little to no marking on them. There's a few stickers, batt that ate it was manufacturd in July 07 and the front one...

The BF AT tires on my newly acquired m1008 like to fling gravel and seeing as I live on gravel the lower fenders, rockers, etc are taking a beating. Already got some surface rust after a week and a half. So, I'm going to coat the bottom 4" or so all around and the insides of the wheel wells to...

Well tomorrow night I will probably be taking a 3 hour drive after work to check out a supposedly rust free m1008 with 34k, new hydro boost steering box 2 alternators and some other stuff including aluminum wheels and 32in BF AT/Kos. Sounds good but he is asking a pretty good price, but it is a...
