A&M '90 here. Whoop! Sermis in Temple has built a nice bobbed truck for himself that he might consider selling. he also has a nice 395 tired truck that you could probably talk him out of. Send him a PM. Wehring builds them to sell as well. I have seen both their work and it is good...

I was able to get my fat hands in on the passenger side, but it was tight.

I would hope 35 since MV speeds require the shortest distance over faster travel roads. Plus, they would make a pretty long line behind them on 21 coming in from Madisonville. Not that the people in Marlin, Calvert and Hearne won't be inconvienenced when they come down 6. At least most of 6 has...

Pull the balancer, pry the old seal out, pound in a new one, add a swipe of oil to it and put the balancer back on. It might add 10 minutes to your balancer swap.

It would be a good idea since you have access to it better than you will in the future. Do the front seal when you put on the new balancer.

Hmm, I tried both in a Check A Thread. 7mm x1.00 was the only one that fit by hand. I would guess that the 1/4 size was what GM used up until the "lets change over to metric one bolt at a time" idea came along. then 7mm x 1.00 was what they went to. I guess by the replies here that both can...

The 1/4 nuts will start on the adjuster bolt. Then they can be forced to tighten. This will work in a pinch. However, the bolt is the 7mm x1.00. Use what you can get, but know it is a pain to force tighten that nut while reaching behind the grill and trying to keep a phillips driver from...

Sam, I have a spare 101 bed out in my pasture. I do not have a scale big enough to put it on. However, when I was moving it around, it was pretty easy to pick up a side at a time. I would guess 300-400 pounds. I did not have the tail gate on when I did that though. I have my 101 loaded...

All the other lights are coming on and the volt meter is showing at least a high yellow charge with the key on? The relay is $10-$20.

The intake is just a director of air flow. No water or no fuel in it. The worst that will happen is you will get some air not filtered into your engine. Not that I would do this, but duct tape would take care of your needs really. Then again, members like Gimpyrobb have dozens of brand new...

Let me see if I understand correctly. You have new ends that you want to press into a torque rod that already has the old rubber and ball pressed out? I would do it with the threaded part up and some kind of a sleeve down to the actual rubber/socket part to take up most of the push. I...

If you have one of these little plastic things break, just buy 4 of the 7 mm x 1.00 nuts. I didn't when I made the above post last month. Last night driving home, the passenger light decided to point at the front bumper. I will add nuts to all 4 adjusting screws now.

M1009 does not have the level proportioning valve. Just the one up front. If you brake light isn't on under the speedo, then assuming the light works. You are getting pressure to both ends. Something else to check out though. Do the front brakes even work?

The -20 manual has a great troubleshooting section that covers the steps for the gauge. Start with the red fuse at the bottom of the fues panel and follow the steps from there.

Yes, something in the starting circuit is stuck on. More than likely it is the starter relay. Unplug it and see if the battery will connect up without arcing. If that isn't it, try the starter solenoid next. I know the solenoid is easier to see than it is to get to. So, connect the battery like...

Yes, the two designs will both work. The design change was with the slip yoke. Mine was removed when I got the truck as well. Turns out the pinion yoke had a broken off tap in it. Which means somebody broke a bolt off, drilled it out and then broke the tap off before giving up. Who knows...

Parking brake could have been left on or adjusted too tight as well.

Starters normally give some warning before they go. Pull your battery terminals, clean them and put them back on. If you still get nothing, turn on your headilghts. If the lights don't dim at all when you try, then the power isn't getting to the starter. Do the starter relay check and follow...

The manual ending in -20 for the M44 series trucks is the one that explains transfercase adjustment.

A furniture dolly or even a shovel work great for sliding the tires around and getting them back on.
