    suggestions for wiring up trailer lights?

    Put on a set of the larger composite military tail lights for better visibility and to retain the military look of the trailer. Swap out the 24v bulbs for 12v bulbs. Make an adaptor to connect from the trailer harness plug to the tow vehicle. Here are the bulb conversion p/n's: 24v # 1683...

    Question about Engine Swaps on the M715

    These guys can also help over on the M715 zone. I've thought about putting a diesel in my M715 too. The 230 runs too good right now to make a swap though. http://www.m715zone.com/vb/index.php

    Fun day with the Blazer (rant)

    RE: Re: Fun day with the Blazer (rant) ???? The 24v starter should last for years if it's installed correctly.

    Cold Natured Diesel

    Maybe that is why the TM states higher numbers. Different probe location. It would be interesting to have a 'front of head' and 'rear of head' temp gauge, just to know the difference in temp. I wouldn't think it would be very much though.

    Anybody need Blazer M1009 or Pickup M1008 Parts?

    How goes the truck disassembly Brian? I still need the requested parts when you get them pulled.

    under bumper front hitch

    I agree, it is convenient to have a hitch up front for pushing a trailer around in tight spaces. I bolted mine to the bumper, with a backing plate behind. The M105 trailer sits about level.

    West coast mirror mounting

    They come with, or are supposed to, backing plates for just that reason, and to prevent the nuts from pulling out.

    The Skinny on 24087

    RE: Re: The Skinny on 24087 Thanks David for posting this info. The paint codes and paint history are a very in-depth subject. A lot of research/work went in to putting this info together for us novices. Thanks Kenny for making it a sticky.

    Cold Natured Diesel

    Be sure to bleed off any air trapped around the sensor you installed, it can give you an inaccurate reading. That part of the head acts as a pocket. With the vehicle running at temp, just crack open the sensor plug until coolant comes out, then tighten.

    Cold Natured Diesel

    Idleing will not generate enough heat to reach operating temp, 180-190. Normal cruising on a hot day you should see 190. Wayne, 230 is danger high. 210 at MOST when say pulling a trailer on a hill. 220 and up, and you start running the risk of loosing head gaskets. The 6.2 does not do well...
