    Glow plug lost through combustion chamber cup

    WRONG!!!!!! The broken glow plug WILL making into the cylinder. You run the engine it will have a chance of cracking the cylinder wall. First hand experience here... The swollen glow plug tool is woth it's weight in gold... Again first hand experience.

    Just won a M1152A1 and have questions...

    It's out of Barstow and has no windshield glass... I see Am General has glass but I am wondering if it will fit. I don't see "m1152A1" listed under the glass. I understand it;s not armor. Also any leads on gaskets and retainers? Is there anything I should watch out for on trucks coming out of...

    If you rescue someone with your truck in the snow this week, please do a video

    If you are in an LMTV in the snow, chances are you will need to be rescued. LMTVs SUCK in the snow.
