My T case frequently comes out of gear while in 4Lo. Not at a slow crawl, but if I am really needing the 4WD and it's bumping around. This is not a terrible problem except I cannot put it back into any range without grinding. It seems I have to shut the vehicle off and then re-select the...

I bought a M1008 last year. It was used as a municple vehicle for the city of Grand Junction. So someone painted it white and put about 10 holes in the roof. I am aware of the tech manuals and I have printed out the layout of the appropriate vehicle, as far as what color goes where and how...
