Didn't even think of that, I've got a parts truck with good plugs on it that I can take em off and wire it up and see if it fixes it

I have no idea what's going on with my drivers front turn signal. I was working the other day but now just the drivers front one dosent work, the drivers rear still works fine and doesn't even blink fast. But I put a new bulb in it and cleaned the grounds arround it but I'm at a loss. And the...

Thanks guys I fixed it today, the threads in two of the holes just were chewed up and I really didn't want to pull the hub off because I just put new bearings and races and a oil seal in it and didn't feel like tearing her apart again. But I just ran a tap through them a couple of times and...

2 of the 8 bolts that hold the end of my axle shaft to my hub are striped, my question is can I drive it to my friend who's a mechanist so he can tap the threads? I have 6 of the 8 bolts in, and will gear oil leak out of my rear or not? Thank you

I think my alternators going bad on my 86 m1008 but I wanted to ask here to make sure. Lately it's been making a chirping sound at idle and charges fine but the voltage goes down to 13 or below of I have the lights on or the heater on, or both. This is gen 1 by the way and It has new belts. The...

anyone with any other suggestions about how i should go about fixing this?

I got a cucv alternator fromrare electric off eBay and I don't think it's overcharging because the voltage gauge is in the high yellow range and my belt isn't slipping. If its the alternator that's bad I'll be mad, it doesn't even have 100 miles on it!

last night on my drive home from work i noticed that my 86 m1008s gen 1 light came on. the truck has the origional 24v system and the driverside alternator is brand new and the front battery is brand new. gen 1 light is totally out at low rpm, barely glowing at half throttle, and the light is...

I'd get it rebuilt before I ever got that Chinese crap. Just my .02

Great looking truck, looks identical to my 1008, how much lift is that?

I personally would swap in a 700 if my 400 ever goes just to have the overdrive, you'd need to find a civvy truck that had the 6.2 and the 700 to get the tv cable bracket and such. And I'm not positive but I'm pretty sure the 700 is longer so you'd need a different rear driveshaft, the front...

I'd be sure it's a 205, I've never seen a k5 with one, I thought it was a one ton thing. Even my buddies 86 k20 has a 208

By far the best mod I did to my m1008

It was the front battery that was dead. Glow plug setup is stock and it has the original 24v system. I'm pretty sure though that the drive side alternator took a crap, I'm going to replace it with a oem isolated ground alternator and see if that fixes things. Thanks for the help and I have the...

I was hoping someone who has more experience with cucvs could help me out, it a 86 and its my daily driver and I've never had any problems with it. Today I go to start it and one of the battery's was dead. I charged it and go to start and I now have no glow plugs, the light doesn't come on and...

Awesome m1009 I love those old cucvs
