    Has anyone put a gear vendor in their truck?

    In my opinion a 700r4 is junk in stock form, however I have personally seen them "built" to handle serious hp/torque. They work well if you replace the wimpy parts with stout stuff. They are easier/cheaper to adapt than a 4l60/80e and more common in a junk yard. If you know someone that can...

    Fuel Block

    Another member here gave me this info.....Fuel filter base w/filter (262) 244-1262 P/N 12471725. This info was offered to me from the same question. I'm told it is a spin on kit.:-D

    Stereo Instal

    You should have about 12.5v with key on and I beleive you should have the same with engine running....where did you tap into to get power? the headlights are the exception to the rule because they get thier power right off the starter i.e. thats why they dim when you turn the truck off. Are you...

    Anyone ever have this fuel issue?

    first thing to check would be lift pump. the only other thing would be to drop the tank and look for a rag that someone had to temporarely used if they lost thier gas cap, seen that one first hand! good luck:-D

    Brake light below fuel guage says I have a problem....

    ok, i found out what that thingy is, it controls how well the back brakes work according to the load on the suspension. Just a simple proportioning valve, and yes I will keep it unless thats where my leak is.:-D

    Brake light below fuel guage says I have a problem....

    ok, I went to napa to get a quart or 2 of dot 5 syn......WHOA, 28.00 a quart. We did some research to find out the difference between the syn/glycol, dot 3,4, and 5 and the differences were syn-glycol based and the boiling point of each accordingly, think what you will but that's a little pricy...

    Brake light below fuel guage says I have a problem....

    ok, the level in the master was low in the front...that's the rear brakes if memory serves. it was not very low, .5" below normal. I looked around underneath and could not locate where fluid maybe going. Its wet underneath still from the wet air and driving it yesterday so i'll have to wait for...

    need opinions

    I would sand it down to the first color it was painted, if all adhesion is good than use that for a primer coat...I really like the tan!

    Leaking Injector Pump

    I cant remeber who posted the link to me, but a seller on e-bay sold one to a member here for 270. Supposably it was turned up and all and the member was happy with it, hopefully they'll pipe up!

    Headlight and turn signal on one side inop

    when I got my 1008 the ground wire for the headlights on the drivers side was not hooked up, I discovered it when adding a battery tray there. The headlights/ blinkers were unaffected before/after wire was hooked up...i'm led to believe that the headlights need a good ground, not multiple...

    Brake light below fuel guage says I have a problem....

    thanks for the input, and I will look into fixing it immediately of course. I have owned the truck about 3 months, a couple of weeks ago I checked the fluid for the first time and it was perfectly full(it was previously owned by a civilian, not right out of a gl yard). I will check fluid level...

    What is a CDR valve?

    please dont quote me, but I remember hearing something about using a valve cover setup from a 6.5 engine allowing use of it's CDR. Hope i'm remembering correctly, sounds like it would be a good mod/available for years to come...:-D

    Brake light below fuel guage says I have a problem....

    I'm curious if anyone has had a similar issue, the brake indicator light below the fuel guage started blinking tonight when I was backing into my driveway. It blinks when I hit the brakes, staying on sometimes until I pump the brakes a little, it will stay off for a few more pumps and then come...

    Scored a 85' M1009

    Hey there, nice truck. I have helped a buddy install tailgate glass many times in his blazer, it's pretty common for it to break if the window is partway down while driving or if the rubber seals on the tailgate/cap are worn,or if BOTH sides of the tailgate dont latch. you'll have to remove the...

    Headlight and turn signal on one side inop

    you might have a look at the wire loom that runs across the core support, it may be pinched or have a wire in it that has been spliced from a previous owner, I believe that all light wires are in 1 loom as they go across. good luck:-D
