    M1008 Frontend starting to sag

    My M1008 frontend is starting to sag. It always sat lower in the front than in the back. The front springs have a slight negative arch which, from what I have read, is normal. Last month I installed a heavy bumper and a MileMarker 12000 lb hydraulic winch. I run 34x10.5 Super Swamper LTB tires...

    I bought a M1028 from Boyce Equipment and it starts and idles fine. But every now and again (every couple hundred miles) it acts like the the accelorator get depressed while driving. I dont think that it would be air in the fuel system because it starts and idles great. Maybe lift pump or...
