    Glo Plug Solenoid Help

    Sorry about the delay, I had to drive to Oregon to pick my son up from Winter Encampment. While I was gone, my stepson went through all of the tests in the TM. All of the wiring checked out. The solenoid and temp sensor were replaced, all tests indicate the GP card is the issue (which was new)...

    Marcus, I checked that this morning. There is no continuity of the 4 terminals of the ST85 to the attachment plate of the ST85. I just pulled an ugly mess of glow plug wiring harness that one of the PO's put in (for which we can't figure out why as the factory harness was still intact and just...

    Glo Plug Solenoid Help

    As I sit and pile through information and previous threads.......the ST85 is all metal. Does that mean it is grounding to the body? What have others done to remedy this since this appears to be commonly used replacement for CUCV's?

I decided to replace the glo plug solenoid (old black plastic one) as a precautionary measure as it had not failed yet. I purchased the Napa ST85 and within a few minutes had it changed...

    M1031 Tire Choice

    Cool and I like these, but I don't think they would work on the rear with the dual tires unless you get spacers, which brings on its own set of issues.

    Help Identifying these brackets

    Hi Experts.....I have been wondering for a while what these brackets might be for and finally took pictures to get your expertise. I think they may be for a PTO set up, but I don't want to guess. There is one on each side, mounted to the frame. The history on my M1028 is that it was with the...

    M1101 Tail Gate Fastener Points

    Mine is the same way. I am guessing that those are for structural integrity of the tailgate as it is two pieces , not including the top and bottom caps.
