Hi Guys, Just wanted to share some pics of a couple new mods I recently did. First I built a new air intake snorkle. Mostly just for fun. I also added a "Y" fitting just before my turbo and added an AFE cone type air filter to my air intake system. I did this because no matter what I checked or...

Hey Guys, I recently picked up an M923A2 with the 8.3 Cummins. She runs well but smokes a bit (black smoke). I have noticed that my air restriction guage is always in the middle part of the yellow. Have reset it several times but always goes back. Since I just got it I thought for sure the...

Hey Guys, I recently updated the side marker lights and tail lights on my M923A2 to the newer LED's. They look and work great....but...Today I finished up and put the front turn signals on and they quit blinking when I throw the blinker on. They just glow steady. Put the old style back on and...

Long story short I was having some fun in my M1008 when all the sudden it started making weird noises and almost sounded like I threw a belt. So I stopped the truck and shut it off. To my suprise the starter motor was engaged and I had no way to stop it. I popped the hood right away and tried...

I have an M1008 and when I make a left or right hand turn on pavement the rear tires chirp. I know it's not from the massive amounts of power! LOL Is the rear axle supposed to always be locked?

My M1008 pulls hard to the right even under normal breaking. I had a suburban that did that under emergency breaking but apparently that was normal for that year Suburban. I am guessing that something is up with my left front break for it to pull to the right like that. Anyone have any...

My newest problem is that my heater only blows when on the HI setting. I had this problem on n Impalla SS once and if I remeber it was some kind of coil or resistor that was bad. Kinda new to these trucks and found that Deuces are MUCH easier to work on! Anyway, anyone have and suggestions...

I recently bought an m1008 and when I went to put it in 4x4 I get nothing. The lock on the driver side hub turns but has no stopping point, can turn it all day long. The one on the other side locks in the "lock" position but when I put it in 4 high or 4 low neither front wheel will turn. I...

I recently purchased an m1008. I am going throught the truck and trying to fix it up a bit. I noticed that there were some marks on the firewall where there probably used to be something. I researched a bit and learned that there should be a 24-12v relay there. Mine is missing. The previous...

OK, so I recently bought an M1008. It ran poorly and had several issues. One problem it had was is you goosed the throttle or were driving it and let off the gas the engine would die. It idle fine and sounded pretty good to me. I have had a deuce for 5 yrs and have done a lot of work on it...

Finally got my tires and wheels on! But of course it was not without a hitch.....two of the studs on the front right wheel stripped out on me. :x So now I have to wait for parts before I can drive her. I would drive it with just one lug nut off but two.........not worth it. Well, I did drive it...

I finally got my wheels from O.D. Iron!:-D First I have to give props to Mike at O.D. Iron, the wheels are great! It took a few months to get them but I am very happy with the quality. Now I am waiting for the 15.5 tires to get here that I also ordered from Mike. I just have a question about...

I was out driving my Deuce the other day and noticed it making a squealing sound once in a while, but only for a second. Got home and popped the hood with the motor running and saw that the belt seemed to be on the loose side. Had a spare so I went to replace it. Long story short I started to...

I am in the middle of replacing my head gaskets and realized that you really do need that special headbolt wrench. I have seen them for sale before on online auctions but can't seem to locate one now. Anyone willing to loan one out or sell one? My other problem is that on of the studs that...

Hello Everyone! I am a newbie here and this will be my first post. Been lurking in the background for over a year now. This sight is great and has made my Hobie of O.D. Iron a lot more fun! So on with my question.....I recently bought a new turbo from TNJ Murray and got it in the mail...
