My leak was the cooler line.

Vacuum pump.

I had a bolt back out and it got trapped rattling behind my pulley. Had to remove the pulley to reinstall the bolt. So you may want to use loctite.

I borrowed a puller from Advanced Auto. Removed and reinstalled on the engine. Make sure all the support brackets are installed and not missing.

Try tightening first... Then if still leak, gasket.

If you wanted a regular bed I would go after a 1008 - They are usually cheaper and easier to find. However if the price is right on what you have mentioned, go for it. Personally I would want to leave the 1031 original. The trucks came with a TH400 transmission.

Where did Doghead go?

My plan for a runaway Diesel would be to discharge a fire extinguisher into the intake, smothering the engine. All my vehicles have one on board. I've never had to use them for this.

Nice, what do you think that twin axle weighed loaded?

Welcome Deuce. You've come to the right place. Good information already given. I would say start simple. Charge both the batteries slowly overnight, then have them load tested. Be careful charging and jumping the truck off, sparks and blue smoke are no fun. If your unsure or don't feel...

Good looking M1008.

As mentioned it will prevent the cascade failure of glow plugs. This had happened to mine when I purchased it. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?80047-Smoke-after-glowplug-swap

I usually see the 6.2L in our trucks listed as a 379. The math says: 6.2 liters is 378.347 cubic inches. 379 (cubic inches) is 6.210 liters
