    1028 4" lift questions

    I have a 4 inch lift. Leave the t case. you never really wanna "drop" the tcase. I have seen people re clock it but that is a PIA. ON a 6-8 inch lift if the front d shaft hits the crossmeber you can space the crossmember down and space the tranny mount back up to compensate.

    Boyce Equipment?

    Try craigslist. There is always 6.2's for sale cheap. a 6.2 is a 6.2. You can also use a 6.5 but you will need inj lines of a 93 6.5TD or a late model 6.2 with the short injs.

    Clicking sound under the dash.Electrical problem

    Card has a burn mark around the transistor. I did a GP override. I'd post pics but it was a sloppy job. I have some cleaning up to do but I need the truck tomorrow. Clicking is gone. Hopefully whatever was burning the other day was the board.

    Clicking sound under the dash.Electrical problem

    Mine is doing it after the truck has been running and on the highway. I know all the usual things and the GP's a new Duratherms. something is causing them to come on randomly. I am going to disconnect the card and do an override for now and see what happens.

    wipers are slow

    Motor is the same. All you need is the mutli function switch and the module which plugs inline to the original harness

    yet another glow plug issue

    You never know how long a CUCV was idled and idling kills the nozzles so mileage could be irrelevant. They squirts should be changed at 100k under normal usage as proper PM. Of course many run them much longer but a bad or dribbling squirt can ruin a piston.

    GP Module Theory of Operation

    Any reason this system could not be replaced with a controller from a civvy 6.2 and wired to the front battery ?

    Clicking sound under the dash.Electrical problem

    OK the clicking sound is the glow plug relay. Why is it doing that when the truck is hot and has been running ? It seems as if the glow plugs come on as they please and when I put a heavy draw on the electrical system like the plow pump it makes the glowplug relay start clicking ? Should I take...

    What lift kit will 37" tires fit on my M1008

    For a 4 inch lift a drop pitman arm has always worked best for me. 4 inches is not enough unless you plan to cut the fender, the tires will hit on turns. 6 inch is the way to go. All the lift kits are made in china so you are paying for name only unless you find a used older Rancho kit like what...

    Doghead Mod Failure

    I also did the mod. In fact I had read about it and then my stock relay failed somewhere and I didn't have internet access but it was easy to figure out how to wire it. It works fine and is a must do.

    Electric fuel pump recommendation

    I got one for 100$ from Pureflow. I thought the one on my Dodge had failed and it was the ****ty workmanship at Lee's Auto Ranch in Ellington Ct so they let me keep the replacement one they sent for 100$ since there was nothing wrong with my original one other than a horrible install job.
