I performed a compression test on my 6.2 today and got the following results. 1- 395 2-390 3-335 4-410 5-345 6-400 7-390 8-390 Cylinders 3 and 5 are low and below the spec of 380psi. I retested those cylinders twice to confirm as well. My question is, is there any way to narrow down the cause...

I’m looking to mount a spare tire under the bed of my M1008. It has been missing whatever the original setup was so I’ll need to purchase or fabricate a mounting system. LMC sells what seems like the complete original mounting, however I’ve never used this setup before and not sure how easy it...

So somehow during the process of reinstalling my starter today one of the starter bolts broke. It was already installed and was cranking the motor over and when I got out of the truck I saw a bolt laying on the floor, it sheared off inside the block. Two questions, what size bolt are these (they...

I just noticed that I’m getting a leak of power steering fluid from the brake booster right where it bolts to the master cylinder. I just replaced both of these with rebuilt parts a few months ago and have put maybe 15-20 miles on them. Did I just get a lemon of a rebuit booster? Or am I missing...

I am in the middle of swapping in a built 700r4. From other threads on here I was not expecting any impact to my total length and thus not needing to change any driveshaft lengths. A good write up with calcs shown here...

I’m in the process of wiring new blackout lights in the rear bumper. The replacements I have don’t seem to indicate which wire is which, and neither did the ones previously installed for that matter. Checking the voltages on each, looks like they’re both hot, one with 12V and the other with 6V...

My new LED headlights came in today so I figured I’d install them to see how they are. I went with the Phillips H6054s. Well I got them hooked up and all was well for a minute until I switched back and forth from high to low beams a couple times. That’s when the drivers side went out. I...

Reaching out to determine difficulty to rebuild the np208. I saw there is a TM that covers this and it doesn’t seem too bad to do but wanted some opinions from anyone who has done it before, and whether any specialized tools were helpful. It looks like rock auto sells an overhaul kit and chain...

Anyone know if these LMC lines will fit the m1008s? My original thought was yes but LMC says 85-87 so now I’m not sure, but they look to be the right shape/style. Mine are leaking so they’ll need to be replaced, I haven’t done a thorough internet search yet but rock auto only sells one of...

I've owned my M1008 for a little over a month now so i figured it was about time I started documenting the project. I found the truck for sale from a few states away, overall in pretty good condition and rust free which was the main thing i was looking for. From stickers on the truck it was...

The M1008 I recently purchased had the factory Stanadyne system bypassed/hacked up and replaced with a fairly sketchy (in my opinion, pic attached) filter so I’m upgrading to the Racor 230R1210. I decided to go with the option with built in heater and WIF sensor to keep stock functionality. My...
