Mid March 2017, when I leave south Alabama it's a balmy 70+ degrees shorts and tee shirt weather. Somewhere along the trip to Ohio the original fuel filter base develops a leak. When I arrive in St. Clairsville, Ohio late Sunday night it's 14 degrees outside! My small leak has gotten bigger and...

Late February 2017. I have a job to go to next month in Ohio. Time for a rattle can paint job!!! Rust-o-leum to the rescue!

More camper pics.

Deer season 2016-17 is over in south Alabama, so my wife is now home and helping with the camper!!! (She does MUCH better wood work than me.) I do metal work. Not a fan of wood work. Truth be told... She did all the carpentry on the camper portion. Other than metal work and wiring...I was the...

Recovery4x4, The shore power is GREAT!!! I like being able to plug in when I can and not always run off the batteries. Did you ever dual out your ambulance?

So now we are up to around December-February 2017. Time work on the camper part now. I ran wire from under the hood to the box and came in (mostly) through the front drains. Also ran wire from the passenger side of the box to the driver side through through the drains. (I don't like a bunch of...

Now for the winch. If you know that your travels will take you off-road, and you may not have anyone there to pull you out when you mess up... a winch just might be the ticket! It is for me anyway. But I want it to look as though it is supposed to be there. I got this "A" bomb center section...

Recovery4x4... She's been molested now. But hopefully for the good! I'm building her to fit my needs!

So when my work up north was done, I drove my ambulance home to South Alabama. Now the fun begins!!! I wanted dual fuel tanks, a winch, and to start building my camper. Easy Peasy right??? I wanted the auxiliary tank set-up to look like it belonged there. The heater intake was exactly where the...

Next up is the DUVAC removal, and Tachometer. For those not familar with the M1010 charging system... The DUVAC system can be a real pain. And mine was no exception! Many thanks to m38inmaine and his write-up M1010 DUVAC removal Plan "B"! Once the new 12 volt alternator was in place, it was...

Although purchased in April, I didn't bring it "home" to Sioux City till July 2016. Then the fun starts!!! The glow plug system wasn't working properly... and it was on a push button switch on the dash. I got the replacement glow plug card from John at Hillbilly Wizard. Re-attached a couple...

Although I've been here a few years, this will be my first thread. So please bear with me! In April 2016 while working in Sioux City, Iowa I found my M1010 on Craig's List in Des Moines, Iowa.

Thank you!

How much do they run?

Iceman, do you have any TV brackets for sale?

I understand!!! I'm just a long way from home, thinking about taller tires... and don't want to have to throw the spare into the back of my ambulance.

Recovery 4x4, did you ever get the 255/85/16 to fit in the stock spare carrier? Thank you!

I also want to dual my 1010. And an overdrive transmission.

This site has helped me beyond measure!!! Just renewed for two more years.

I drove my deuce as a DD for about three months last fall. It sure helps you to figure out what needs to be worked on next!
