    $25 Mudflap Install

    Lawdog I agree on the length. Its a start At least I have the mounting brackets installed. I am going to look for 24 to 30 inch length flaps (will measure from the ground) to get something in the range you stated. Figured I would get something on there for now.

    Attaching a timing light

    I use a 2 inch spring the diameter of the plug terminal. Slip into plug socket and over plug wire spring and my clip on induction light picks up the firing signal easily.

    WARNING!! More M998 Fastners to Check

    M988 owners take note. Jacked up the right rear to change a worn tire on my 1985 M998 won back in February. Once the tire was off the ground I noticed quite a bit of side to side movement of the wheel assembly. Crawled underneath and found the reason. The tie rod end assembly was loose in...
