    m1078 list of mods

    I built a m923a2 that I bobbed with air ride and set up real nice, that truck I miss as it was smooth and had power. My m925a1 i do not really miss. I really like the m1078 but torn betwen the bobbed 5 and the 1078. I plan on keeping my 1078 as it is more versitlie, tons more cab room, 4x4 takes...

    m1078 list of mods

    Turned up with no load in the truck she will continue to pull hills and not downshift. Ive seen 1200deg and rising allowing it to do its thing will lead to meltdown. ive then had 8000lbs in the bed and it will pull similarly but much happier. My point was if one is so inclined to dive into the...

    Ill try to get my sources of info up. They make the special tooling due to tight working conditions and fine adjusments. If you had to res6nc the rack then you are either forced to buy the kit or take the entire intake manifold and valve body apart to wo4k through it. I made very minor...

    Stuck Frame Bolts

    Huck bolt. Had a 1" gun strip one off to see if it was even possible. Highly do not recommend, cut off with a cut off disk or a torch and replace with grade 8 and torque

    m1078 list of mods

    Followed the procedure for the cat 3116 to set valves, adjust injectors and advance them. Turned up the fuel and air ratio and she hauls. 9ulls hills without downshifting which causes egts to climb. Overall its much nicer now to notnhave to work the peddle for power. Building the hitch this week
