Welcome from Central PA.

Nice work and it looks good. KsM715 is correct about the cable clamps. Just remember this saying when installing cable clamps "You never saddle a dead horse" The saddle goes on the "live" side of the wire and the U bolt goes on the dead end. Keep up the nice work and Thanks for sharing the...

Good Job Dan! I am glad that you finally got your truck home. I got a good laugh watching you drop the master cylinder, air pack, wrenches, bolts and everything else on your self. Your reaction time greatly improved. By the time we were done, I noticed that the heavier the item was that you...

On my M1009, I installed the IP then installed the lower injector lines. It takes a little bit of doing to get to the lower lines to tighten them but it can be done. I think I used a long open end wrench and was able to get to all of them. Take pictures of the IP with the lines connected prior...

I will be coming down on Thursday, would you like me to bring anything? Karl

After finding two clogged water passages in the heads during a recent head gasket repair, I wanted to see what was in the coolant filter. Not too bad but still trapped some sludge. I flushed the system a year ago and installed a new filter system at that time. The people at the local NAPA tell...

It was at the Boalsburg Museum. The weather was really hot. However there was a nice breeze and we had some portable shade. Karl

Dan, It's fine where it sits. I can get my trucks in and out of the garage. I will read up on how to repair the brake issues as well. We will get it repaired and back to your home. I just hope your Deuce stays away from my Deuce. I dont want any little suprises later. Karl

I recently installed a new one on my M1009. This was the first one I ever did and it took me about a day.
