    No start M1008... won't crank & burned 2 fusible links??!! - w/ pics

    Ok, so I keep searching, and I was finally able to find two part numbers for the 6.2 CUCV starter, in the CUCV Wiki.... (I thought it would be in the FAQ/Sticky section instead...) #1 is the AC Delco # 1113591 #2 Is the number for the Wilson # WIL 91-01-4376 The Wiki also said the Wilson...

    No start M1008... won't crank & burned 2 fusible links??!! - w/ pics

    OK....... From what I have been able to find and read, it is suggested to have a starter rebuilt instead of buying a 'cheap store brand'. Only problem is, I am way out in the country. The closest town with even an actual autoparts store (napa, oreilies, autozone, etc) is about 30 miles from...

    No start M1008... won't crank & burned 2 fusible links??!! - w/ pics

    hummm... guess I shouldn't use a maxi fuse in place of a fusible link in the starting circuit.... Oh well, have to read the gauges and see if I have the right fusible link wire, if not I'll have to pick up the right sizes when I'm able to make it to an autoparts store. Hope nothing else goes...

    No start M1008... won't crank & burned 2 fusible links??!! - w/ pics

    Agreed richingalveston, I figured it must be the starter, there just wan't much else left with no other bad wires or other problems found. Its just a starter usually gives some other symptoms or warning, this one didn't do anything, just plain out died. I was going to get ready to pull it off...

    Good Afternoon Everyone! Have a problem with our 1986 M1008..... been trying to figure it out, and have been searching here on SS. I'm usually pretty good with electrical issues... But this time, I'm not sure what exactly what the problem is.... A little quick history: Bought this truck a...

    Replacement Turn Signal Lever - Is there a CorCivy Replacement or Mil Made Speciality

    Yes It is a Major Pain... Literally sometimes. I actually intentionally peeled all the loose chrome off of mine just to 'reduce' the chance of getting stuck or cut by it again. Just another reason to go with straight black... plus it looks better anyway :driver: Got mine ordered BTW from Rock...

    Replacement Turn Signal Lever - Is there a CorCivy Replacement or Mil Made Speciality

    I suck with the TM's! They make me want to do this -> aua But I did try to find this in the TM's before I started this thread, but didn't get anywhere. I guess I need to just buy a paper back set or print them out or something, for my M1008 and my Deuce both. Don't need them often, but when...

    Replacement Turn Signal Lever - Is there a CorCivy Replacement or Mil Made Speciality

    Thanks A lot Keith! I was looking on the other online stores, but didn't know about Rock Auto, hadn't come across them yet. That is at least a little better price. All of the other stores that I found were either the same or much higher than Classic Parts. And I like the black better than the...

    Replacement Turn Signal Lever - Is there a CorCivy Replacement or Mil Made Speciality

    Looks like if I want the correct one, Classic Parts apparently has the best price on the actual GM part. Doesn't look like dorman or anyone else makes the correct one, they all make only the one With Delay/Pulse Wipers.

    Replacement Turn Signal Lever - Is there a CorCivy Replacement or Mil Made Speciality

    LMC has it, but its $49 bucks! I need to go the other direction :-) http://www.lmctruck.com/icatalog/cc/full.aspx?Page=147

    Replacement Turn Signal Lever - Is there a CorCivy Replacement or Mil Made Speciality

    Thanks for the Part Numbers and Links antennaclimber. That is Exactly what I am looking for.... but a 'crappy reproduction' for $10 would have been good enough for me :smile: But... I would rather have one marked correctly, so I might have to break down and pay up, if I can't cross the part...

    Replacement Turn Signal Lever - Is there a CorCivy Replacement or Mil Made Speciality

    Hey All, I have an 1986 M1008, and I just replaced the dimmer (high beam) switch. While I was at it I wanted to replace the Turn Signal / Multi-fuction / Combination (or whatever other name it is listed under) Lever, as the plastic is cracked. However, I have searched all of the major...

    Headlights flashing on and off

    rofl :popcorn: Sounds like your horn circuit is grounding to your headlight circuit somehow. When I first got my M1008, the horn sounded like a toy car, it was really high pitch, and really low. Since then, it has gotten much louder, but it is still really high pitch. Its funny, but it...

    Headlights flashing on and off

    Wish I had figured out that the headlight dimmer switch ( high beam / bright light switch ) was UNDER the dash.... BEFORE I went and pulled the steering wheel, lock ring (without a lock ring compressor tool - made a tool but it was a lot harder), and everything else in there, only to have to put...

    Why would the Transfer Case pop into neutral while driving?????

    Sorry guys I haven't updated sooner. But we've been dealing with some other issues, and didn't get back to the truck until today. So here's the update: Today we pulled the Transfer Case inspection plate, but wasn't able to see much. However, I did notice that there was decent layer of oil...

    Why would the Transfer Case pop into neutral while driving?????

    Yes, about 550-600 lbs from what I've read! Thought about going with a used TC, but at the same time, I don't want to have the same problem again either.

    Why would the Transfer Case pop into neutral while driving?????

    Yep, I know exactly what you're saying. Have that problem myself sometimes... We have only been running it in high, as we've been highway driving for sometime now. We hadn't had any problem with it for the first... oh... 4000 miles or so that we've driven on it. Just started popping out in...

    Why would the Transfer Case pop into neutral while driving?????

    The guy we know here said he knows of a couple truck shops, so we were going to look into that. The u-joints is a good thought, especially since we're already going to have the shaft off. Might just replace them if they're not that much. Thanks for that thought [thumbzup]

    Why would the Transfer Case pop into neutral while driving?????

    I apologize gringeltaube looks like I got into to big of a hurry, and didn't spend enough time searching. I have now been through the posts you linked, and I found other connected links in those posts as well, plus a few more I found on my own. From what I have found, It looks like just for...

    Why would the Transfer Case pop into neutral while driving?????

    Hey All, Did some searching about this, but didn't find anything specifically. The Background: We're still trying to find a place to move to, and we have now driven the deuce about 4500-5000 miles over the last 8-9 months, pulling a trailer, plus about 9,500lbs in the bed. The Problem: A...
