    Tubes and flaps for 1100r16 Michelin tires

    You might look into a tractor tube with a TR218A (air, liquid valve). It has the removable valve core housing that might be a little longer than a regular TR15 rubber stem. It will also be more sturdy if you have to add an extension.

    M915 dashboard switch and indicator light question

    Is this ABS light supposed to be on all the time to indicate it is working? Ok, This light comes on when you start the truck. Then when you get to moving the light goes out to show that the ABS is working. I had to drive it a few hundred miles after sitting quite a while for it to work right. I...

    Starter service

    This reminds me of the city slicker that bought some nice replacement heifers and fed them really good with some premium breeding cubes. Those heifers never did get pregnant after all his efforts! He resorted to buying a bull because those breeding cubes did not work!

    Starter service

    This is why you are not supposed to crank and crank for extended amounts of time without letting the starter rest. The fluid gets hot and evaporates and binds up your starter. Then it is real hard to drain what's left and refill with new. That is why a straw is needed on fluid can to insert into...

    M1028a2/3 part number needed.

    I believe the part # for the spacers is 15634661. Nearly unobtanium! Probably salvage yard only unless you get lucky. If you find an extra set let me know!

    M915A1 rear axle seals

    National is what is available here to get back to going. I will check the vents.

    M915A1 rear axle seals

    I tend to agree. I will leave it oil bath with National Gold 380003A Stemco type inside seal.

    M915A1 rear axle seals

    Ok, Thanks for the quick reply Wes! That makes sense. I could not figure out why that seal was necessary for the oil bath.

    M915A1 rear axle seals

    I had an inside oil seal leaking on right rear. Pulled it apart and inside seal had been damaged when military rebuilt. Axle flange had rtv sealant only. No gasket or seals. Parts manual shows outer oil seals just under axle flange. They consist of 2 paper gaskets and an 8 hole metal oil seal...

    M1008 Build

    Now would never be a better time to replace head gaskets since they are old enough to fail and have heads checked while off! Just my 2 cents.

    Reuse head gasket if not run yet

    If a head gasket was not available, I can see trying to reuse one as some have suggested. It might work and get you going. If the gasket is readily available, I think money would be well spent to buy the new gasket and use it for the sake of not having to redo it again. Good luck with whatever...

    Sounds like a misfire please help!

    That is probably unburned diesel mixed with carbon because that injector may not be spraying correctly. That could be your miss!

    My new project (M1009)

    The alternator pulley looks suspect to me. I would suggest a solid machined pulley instead of the stamped steel type like you have. Probably need one on the other side too. I would also try another crank pulley and compare it if you have one available.
