    Edelbrock Frt Shocks $6

    I'm thinking that you wont sell them here... I'm fairly sure those are for independent suspension trucks, not solid axle 4WD. *But I've known to be wrong. With an eyelet on one end and a stud on another, they aren't going to fit M1009's...

    Glow plug/card/relay problem?

    So, its the plugs. Lasted less than 2 months. I ordered them on 09JAN. Its now 09MAR. 6 out of 8 are completely dead. No reading with the ohmmeter at all. They all look fine, no swelling or broken tips. Contacting ssdieselsupply to see what they will do.... Any ideas as to what could...

    How do I remove the top of my door panel?

    Another easy way to get those clips off the window crank is to take a rag and slide it between the door panel and crank. If you work it around right, the end of the clip will catch on the rag and you can pop it right off.

    Glow plug/card/relay problem?

    FRACK! These are less than 2 months old. Maybe less than that. They are 070's from ssdieselsupply.com What would have killed them that fast? Possible to figure out for sure which are good and which are bad so I don't have to order 8 again?

    Glow plug/card/relay problem?

    Well, I guess I'm not sure... But if I jump the relay (manual glow) and hold it for 10 seconds, it fires right up every time. Voltage to the plugs is right about 17.

    Glow plug/card/relay problem?

    Glow plug/card/relay problem UPDATE -ITS THE PLUGS!! I tried searching for this, but came up with nothing.. I can't quite figure out where the issue is, as everything seems to be working properly, but something isn't! I recently replaced my GP's. All get volts, and are in working order...

    Diff fluid change - gaskets?

    No gaskets here either. Permatex Red ultra temp. I let it set up for about 30 minutes. Put a solid line around the cover and encircle every hole. I then put it on the diff, torqued it down just till the permatex started squishing out. Let it set up another hour, then cranked it down the...

    Top Crusing Speed?

    None at all. There was 2-3ft of snow on the ground, and cold as a witch's, well you know.. And it ran great. I didn't notice any loss of power. I do run Diesel Kleen Power service in every tank too.

    1 Weekend and 17 rattle cans...

    I powerwashed it at the quarter wash for 30 minutes, going ever every nook and cranny. I brought it home, sanded out places where there chips in the paint and feathered them out. I didn't do any bodywork. I plan on using it offroad primarily, so I wasn't concerned about little dents and what...

    Top Crusing Speed?

    I drove mine up to Pinetop/Showlow last month. I've still got the stock 31"s. I ran it at indicated 70 pretty much the whole way. My speedo is off though, and my wife driving her truck said we were doing 65. I think you would be totally safe in that range.

    See the post right under yours. its a "friendly" marker. I just used black paint, but IIRC, the .mil used a IR reflective material.

    Man, I knew my index finger was sore, but I didn't realize how much so until I went to use some shaving cream when I took a shower.... :-P Could barely dispense any! I should have bought one of those trigger sprayer things for spray cans...

    gauge install?

    Quick tip - If its a mechanical gauge, DO NOT REMOVE THE "CABLE" FROM THE GAUGE. Its filled with ether. If you take it off, you ruined it! You have to figure out how to get it through the dash, then through the firewall, etc all in one shot.

    1 Weekend and 17 rattle cans...

    I have them, I just need to clean them up and paint them. They've been painted probably 20 times and its just flaking off in chunks. Gonna put em in my vise and hit them with a wire wheel. I couldn't bring myself to put them back on the truck as bad as they look. =)
