    Rear main oil seal leak?

    I wrote that..but I need to make one edit. Per the TM, anaerobic sealant should be used on the bearing cap not RTV. Page 3-112 in the -34 TM: "Apply a thin film of anaerobic sealing compound (2) to rear main bearing cap (1) in pattern shown."

    Brake wheel cylinder AH HA!

    Super easy job once the brake drum is removed. I was pleasantly surprised how easy it was to rebuild and the OD kits work perfect. Get a honing tool...they are cheap and for the extra couple minutes it takes to hone, you will have piece of mind of a job well done.

    M1010 A/C Compressor

    By the way, I had this information readily available as the same relay was bad in my truck. It controls the compressor clutch and when bad allows the clutch to always be engaged.

    M1010 A/C Compressor

    Mark, Those AC compressors are supposed to be bullet proof...at least according to what the AC tech that converted my system to 134A told me. I think they can be repaired, where-as newer units are often a one shot deal. Using the part number supplied by Warthog, I found it crosses to...

    How did my deuce ever run?

    Your '87 was originally sold out of Warner Robbins if I am not mistaken. I don't know what the deal is with trucks from there, but I have seen and heard of more than a few that have had similar issues with gelled gunk in the fuel. I dealt with one myself last year...and it was NASTY...

    New Generation CUCV?

    Saw another today in Cocoa heading east on 520. My son snapped these with his cell phone. It is a Navy truck. I couldn't get much closer to get better photos as he was much quicker than the M1008 I was driving. I am still trying to figure out why I am seeing all these Navy trucks in Southern...

    If I get them machined, they will be made from aircraft grade aluminum and anodized. The price will depend on the total number cut, so if your interested send me a PM.

    Converted Gasser Guage Panel

    BUMP - anyone else out there with these? I want to know if there are any around collecting dust just waiting for a truck before I spend some coin having a couple machined. If not, then I have a guy lined up to make me a few out of aluminum next week. The more I have made the cheaper they are...

    Front wheel hop while braking?

    For me, it was a warped rotor. While I was at it, I replaced my leaking axle shaft seals, pinion seal, spindle bearings and seals, wheel bearings and seals, had my rotors turned, installed new brake pads, and replaced my broken hubs. My '08 is running great! I am glad I tore down my front axle...

    Deuces on CL in South Florida

    1985 drop side models...means possibly last contract....possibly split brakes. Prices are relative to location and shape of each truck. I've paid more and I've paid less.
