Over the year and a half I've owned and driven my M1028, hauling a trailer through city & country traffic I've noticed a few things about other drivers. For some reason they can't see a camouflaged truck:confused:. and tend to swerve into my lane, pull out in front of me, or just drive head on...

Yes

Installed 2 WOLO air horns (because Atlanta traffic):driver:. A "bad boy", and a "Big bad boy" essentially a high & low pitch. I thought they'd be gimmicky, but they work REALLY WELL! The low buy itself is only slightly louder then the stock horn ,but in tandem with the high it's very...

I FOUND IT !! it was the left front turn signal socket. I wiggled it and everything started working. When I get a chance I'll pull it apart and hit it with some dielectric grease. Thanks guy's

Okay I'll check that out. I just replaced every bulb on the truck last month.

Electrical is not my strong suit. Can anybody point me in the right direction (pun intended ) as to what would cause this? When I turn on the left blinkers they just stay on and all lights illuminate. When I turn on the head lights the 2 left front marker lights won't light up and it still...

Well I guess if SCRAY looking guns were illegal once, and could be again, why not goofy looking exhaust.:drool:

WOW! that looks really good. My vote is for it to be yellow [thumbzup].

Here's what I found online about Michigan's equipment laws in regards to exhaust. http://www.legislature.mi.gov/(S(2zejlv055okitfyoywzp1q3n))/mileg.aspx?page=getObject&objectName=mcl-257-707.. Kind of vague if you ask me. Maybe if you called one of the companies that make stack kits they may...

I can't imagine that they're illegal in any state. The trooper was half right when he said exhaust has to exit the rear of the vehicle. In the case of guy's running dumps, or side exit exhaust, do to the risk of exhaust gases entering the passenger compartment. But obviously the point of stacks...

I'm not familiar with how the harmonic balancers on our trucks are made. But I have had a couple shake loose on hotrods in the past. Those had a large counter weight pressed over a center hub with a strip of rubber glued in between. The rubber rots out and the counter weight slips a little...

Bought them off ebay there just called folding step- hand grips $20.00, The flash light holder I also bought off ebay . Its from Maglite $10.00 Part# ASXX376...

Got new tires... Flashlight mount... , And added a pair of folding steps to the sides of the rear bumper to make it easier to get into the bed when the tailgate is down..

Ha! thanks, yeah if you have any pics of how you installed the winch that'd be great. That would make it much faster for me. I agree the winch is ultimately the better solution. I just don't have the time as a 1 man small business to (A) take the time to engineer it, and (B) have my only work...

That was original idea, but I'm really not sure how to get the crank thing worked out. The slide out thing just seems quicker an easier to install.

After replacing all 4 tires + the spare . I realized reinstalling the spare tire is a ridiculous process, involving a floor jack, feet, and cussingaua. I found some pics online mentioning a (Glide-out spare tire carrier) mostly used for Chevy trucks with RV bodies. The only problem is they are...

Well I called K&N, I'll have to take back my previous statement about them[thumbzup]. They said it sounds like a defective bypass valve issue. They are overnighting me a new filter , and would like me to call back Monday to report how the new filter is working. And that they will then send me "a...

Yeah I checked that it wasn't that. When I was a kid I worked at a jiffy lube in the pit, doing 30+ cars a day. I've never seen or even heard of a filter doing this. I mite try calling K&N to see what excuse they can come up with LOL!

So we had our first real good cold snap of the year here in GA. And when I went to start my M1028 the other morning (30° outside), and it sprayed about 1/4 QT of oil out from around the oil filter gasket. It only leaked for a second, and once pressurized and warmed the leak stopped. This must...

That's correct, but your reading at the water pump is contaminated by the cooler water sitting in the lower radiator hose. And when the thermostat opens the rush of even cooler water at that point. By taking your reading at the thermostat you know exactly what the system is doing. And if the...
