The electricals are the Achille's heel of the M880. My guages died back in '94; heard there was some gizmo behind the dash that might be at fault, but you know how it is, the hurrier I go the behinder I get. Also had trouble with the charging circuit. Temporary jumper from alternator to...

On Sept 11 I went to make a left turn, oncoming traffic came to a tire smoking stop. I felt like a heel, slid a little lower in the seat and made the turn. I've had this truck since '93 and have never washed it except underneath, it just never seems to look any different than it did when I got...

Thanks so much! Its about time to get rid of that faded paint.

I am familiar with the process of cleaning out and reactivating lead-acid batteries, however, I am curious as to whether one could store the cleaned batt dry until it was needed, and then finish up by adding the electrolyte and charging. Thanks

I've had to change the U-joint behind the wheel bearing at the end of the front axle. I don't remember if it made any particular noise or not. You'll have to pull the front hub to get at it for replacement, but it should be possible to examine the condition of this joint without disassembling...

The M880, aka Truck, Cargo, Stealth. Shhh! Don't let the cat outa the bag!

Correct me if I'm mistaken; with the M880, when I jack up a rear wheel it can not be rotated unless the other side is off the ground as well. On the always stuck trucks we have here, those with positive slip, limited traction rears, if one wheel alone is up off the ground it can be turned. Does...

I took the M880 in for a set of GY Workhorses; technician climbs in and begins to move it into the shop and tells me that my power-steerin' aint workin'. I told him the PS got out when I did. The M880 is great for the upper body development. Was a lot of effort at first but now I no longer...

I reckon there's significant difference between driving in old ruts vs plowed ground. I've been amazed at just how much axle the M880 can drag on the ground and still move ahead, provided there isn't much material piled up in front of the wheels. Had to resort to tire chains to fetch out that...

Watch out! They let almost anybody write for 'em.
