I just received notification on the 4 deuces I purchased a little over a month ago. If anyone tells you GL has no authority with Battle Creek, and you believe them, I have some nice land in Florida for sale. I had requested a refund on sale 4991 after the 60 days had passed, and they emailed me...

I just received an email today from GL telling me they are going to give me a full refund according to my request. It was for a 5-ton XM813 and a 6.2 L in a nice storage case. At this point, I would rather have the $5800 so my wife will possibly be a nice person once again. I emailed GL back and...

In the words of Johnny Carson: I did not know that. But now, I do. Thanks for the info. I'm going to go buy 3 more for my other trucks now.

Just did this mod last night and was very impressed with the difference in sound of the starter turning over. It might be my imagination - kind of a placebo effect, but it sure seems to engage faster and spin quicker. Only thing I noticed was the "12V" stamped on the base plate of this relay...

You are absolutely correct. I noticed a heat shield in that area on the M1008 I am working on right now.

Thank you. His name is Duncan, and he is a frisbeeholic. Here is a pic of 2 of his sons, one of which I decided to keep.

Here are some pics of the front end of the M1008 I am currently working on. The 2.5-degree wedges placed the castor angle back to just about stock, and also fixed the pinion angle. In the pics it looks like the castor angle is tilted some, but the truck is actually parked on a slight incline...

What does GL withdrawls feel like - would you like to express your feelings on this a bit ? Well, the first few hours went by fair enough, but after about a day, I noticed I was a little shaky. That was followed by some NVD (Nausea, Vomiting, Diarrhea), which then was followed by loss of...

Sorry for getting off the topic there, just saw a nice looking truck and had to show mine off a little. Anyway, it definitely sounds like a fuel filter problem. If not that, then I would go for the IP possibly getting ready to let go.

My vote is for fuel filter as well. Sounds like it is getting just barely enough to do 45, but not enough to do any more. BTW, that sure is a purty truck ya got there Burbn10. I'm fixing one up right now with 52" springs up front giving it about a 4" lift. I like yer dual stabilizer settup...

I was thinking the same thing... Groin, as in Groinocologist... which is an Archie Bunker term.

My name is akonitony, and I haven't bought from GL in 30 days.... (and the rest of the room says "welcome Akonitony, good job, hang in there...)

Man, this really is an addiction... ya try and quit and all the sudden yer friends come by with some more!

C'mon guys, don't you recognize class when you see it? Why that truck is just dripping with class... Oh, wait, that's an oil leak. Nothin' a little brake fluid added to the crank case won't fix! (for those who may not know it, brake fluid will swell rubber seals up and temporarily stop a minor...

I just thought of an easy way to remember the part number for those of us who remember "Hee-Haw" - call BR549! Just got to remember it a little different: call BWDS5049... Anyway, I tried. I called O'Reilly's and they quoted me a price of $19.99 for it since I have a business account with them...

Finally! - someone knows what the true function of a relay is.... Doghead, you da man!

I see several pieces of good advice here, but I have a fettish for gear-to-gear stuff vs. chain. I have seen a few 208's basically self-destruct over the years, but they are pretty tuff if you are not going over a stock settup. The driveshaft angles being much improved is a big plus, but you...

My next to last M1008 had the same bolt plus another one loose when i bought it. I had to replace the pump because it leaked so bad where it had rubbed a hole in the back of it.

Yeah... wha he said!

Have to disagree with you on this 'un. Never in all of tarnation (which is huge) have I heard of putting the thicker part of the wedge in back on the front leafs. If you look on some of them, they tell you on the wedge the thick part goes away from the truck.
