I seem to have developed a high idle after driving the truck for a extended period of time (30+ minutes). It will idle at about 1k to 1.5k and I have to put it in gear and let it down with the clutch to keep it down. Any ideas at what to look at?

Thanks for all the helpful advice! I'll be sure to keep the rolling back in the wrong gear in mind. I didnt get too much done on the truck this week, due to the rain I didn't get to do the winch brake tests. Anyhow I changed all three differential fluids, transfer case, and transmission fluids...

Good to know, I'll do both those tests on the brakes this week and let you know how it goes. Thanks

Maybe I'm confused as to what the brake should do as I have no winch experience. The winch when unwinding does brake itself if I pull the cable out too fast it seems. What I meant is when the winch is not in use I've accidentally stepped on the drum and spun it which I thought the brake would...

Yup I'm not too worried about it. I'm gonna use some seam sealer to get it all sealed up. I was thinking about making what you described for the windows but I'm not sure when I'll get to it. I'm just happy to have a hard top! The winch operation on the truck is definitely interesting...

Not that great if close the door with the windows up already. If I close the windows while the door is shut the seal in the corners are much better. I figured that was to be expected. I'm just gonna put some additional weather stripping to block the gaps

Got the roof put on last night. They're not exactly bolt on kits, definitely had to fight it a little bit.

Awesome, thanks for the help

Studs on the truck for the lug nuts

Also does anyone know what thread pitch the studs are so I can buy a die to run over them? Thanks

Just finished putting on super singles on my truck with hemtt wheels! She's real big now. Next the hard top which is coming at the end of next week.

What would you recommend doing? Replacing the brake lines and rebuilding the master cylinder?

So after initially driving to Indiana to look at a M923A2 and figuring out the guy pretty much led me on about the condition of the original truck I wanted, I found a M813A1 in Iowa. I drove her home the 350 miles and she did great! Different model than I wanted but the winch was super enticing...
