I have an 86 M1008 with a worn out front end. This summer I plan on rebuilding it with all new springs, tie rods, etc... Since I am purchasing new springs I was thinking about doing a 4in lift. I would like to do a 4in shackle flip in the rear and springs up front. Should I do 5in springs so...
It is winter here in Michigan and my truck does not go over 110 degrees. It has a new radiator, heater core and thermostat all with in this last year. Do I need to put cardboard up front or is there another issue?
Thanks
I decided to turn the fuel up on my 6.2. When i was taking the top cover off of the injection pump 2 of the three bolts/screws broke off in the pump housing. I do not know what to do at this point. Any ideas?
Many thanks,

Over the years my glow plug wires have taken a beating. It is starting to get cold out where I live so o figured i would do it now before the snow flies. I need to rewire the glow plugs and was wondering if I could Daisy chain them or if i have to run separate wires. All information is...
After the truck gets up to operating temp and I shut it off it will not restart. I will turn the key and it will act like the batteries are dead. I have all new battery cables and the long cable that goes to the starter. Batteries tested good.
This has been a problem that I have been to lazy to fix and figured now is a good time to fix the issue. I have no reverse lights and i bought the truck this way. I went to check the bulbs and both were burned out. So I went to the autopart store and got me two new ones. They did nothing after...
I have an 86 m1008 with a 700r4. When it is in 4wd it will randomly disengage like it is in neutral. The 4wd shifting lever does not move. You have to shut the truck off, put it in park and place it in 2wd. Any ideas?
Recently I noticed that my gen 2 light was not coming on before I started the truck. On closer inspection i noticed that i had lost my dash lights. I decided to pull the cluster and take a look. What is the best way to test the lights in the cluster while not being in the truck?
I am thinking about lining my floor with hurculiner. I have read that the paint may be hazardous if skin contact or breathing it in. Is this true? If so what precautions should I take?
I had a battery go bad in my 86 m1008 so i bought a new one. My question is the other battery is a 31-1000 with 1000 cca and the new battery is a 27-2 with 810 cca. If i use the 2 together with it damage anything?
I have a 86 m1008 that cranks very slow (like dead batteries) when you first turn the key. After turning the key after a minute or two it will crank fast enough to start. After it is warmed up it will start right up. The truck has good batteries, new battery cables,new positive starter cable...
I have a 86 m1008 and was looking under it and saw this hose coming out of the rear differential. I don't know if the rest of the hose is missing or if it was never there. If it is all there and nothing is missing, what is the purpose of the hose?
When I turn my M1008 to the accessory position (before I start) only the Gen 1 light comes on. I have heard that they are both supposed to come on. Any ideas?
