    Repairing Manual Hubs on M1008

    they are 30spline outers. at the top of the cucv forum is a post with all of the TM's download them all. I believe that the manual that you need for the diagram is the unit level. you wont need to get new hubs, all though you might need to get new lock-outs If you do get the milemarker...

    More starting issues.....HELP!

    the large silver one under the dash, its the starter relay. the only thing that i can think of is that if its only putting 5v to the solinoind then the solinoid might not make good enough connection for the current to flow through the starter.

    More starting issues.....HELP!

    could be the relay, worth the $8 to change it. you have either a poor connection somewhere or a melted wire, its the only thing that could cause poor cranking with a known good starter. one other thing to try, get a big screwdriver and short the large terminal with the terminal on the...

    More starting issues.....HELP!

    you could make some long leads and be able to see the multi meter from inside the truck. When you crank the truck, do the battery cables get hot? also another thing to try, pull the glow plugs out and try cranking the truck (without the gp's in it will not have compression)

    More starting issues.....HELP!

    yes that switch is all or nothing. If you are getting good voltage to the starter, and the solinoid is activating, then i'd start looking to the starter as the suspect. You say that you tested the starter, may I ask how you tested it?

    Another Alternator problem

    the glow plugs get power from the 24v part of the electrical system, through that big set of resistors on the firewall. Also they have their own fusible links protecting them. the fuse holders should be fine, although I as a rule always replace a fusible link with a fusible link. remove all the...

    M1009 Price Check?

    Thats a fair price (including the listed repairs) for a m1009 that has 1ton axles (dana 60 in the front and a 14bolt in the rear) The rear disc brakes cost ~$300 in parts to install (I did it on my truck less than a year ago) Please take some pictures of the way the suspension is setup on the...

    there was a military order to remove the rubber mats, they trap water under them and cause the floor to rust out. once that "jut" padding gets wet, it NEVER dries out.
