    M1010 for my daughter the field biologist

    I would want my daughters in a modern, newer SUV that is more RELIABLE than your typical 30 year old Chevrolet, or other old MV. You can put better tires on it and a winch and show her how to use it. A little instruction on off road driving will keep her out of trouble so she knows where she...

    changing tires on the rear

    After you get the wheels off the truck, take them to the big truck tire store and let them change them. It's a PIA on the best day.

    Replace or Re-use the Connecting rod bolts

    Replace the rod bolts. You will also need to get the rods resized when you install new rod bolts.

    Another way to lower an M1101/M1102

    I doubt you can tell 0.003" of movement in the hub. Do they expect you to use a dial indicator?

    Show your 5 tons in the snow.

    You were probably only listening for the phrase "no school today".

    M931A2 Turn Signal problem! Urgent!!!!

    The flasher is probably bad. My M929 did the same thing and it was the flasher. If you have another flasher, try swapping it to check.

    M936a2 towing a M931a2

    Make sure there is oil in the transfer case, differentials and stop to check hub temperatures periodically if you flat tow it without pulling axles. Come to think of it, check hub temps even if you do pull the axles. Good luck.

    Deuce road tractor conversion

    I really like the fifth wheel cover Ray. You don't have to worry about the lock mechanism getting full of dirt or mud. Did you make that?

    I have some questions. Was the offender issued a warning? Was there more than one offender? I think the website manager could look at and verify what's going on behind the scene. If no warning (s) were issued and only the rules modified, then you are taking it upon yourself to issue your own...

    Any of the vehicles in the MV of the year competition would have made a good first MV of the month. There's only one first, to say you have to go back and rectify that first month's outcome is just silly. Different things appeal to different people. Several of the monthly winners were in the...

    M-series flasher relay - civvy conversion how-to

    I used fire wrench technology to burn out the potting in the flasher can I modified. Either it wasn't epoxy like I expected, or it may have had a lot of sand mixed in. It was time consuming to remove but it all came out in the end.

    Would you toss these 395 ' s and get new ones?

    The crack in the first picture is what you see before the tread comes off. If it's a tubeless tire, it may or may not go flat. I had a tread peal off and happened to see it flying in the mirror. I didn't realize what it was, but knew I didn't run over anything so I stopped to check things...
