I'm a farmer. We do EVERYTHING for ourselves. Thanks for the help.

I have the TMs on my computer at home. Unfortunately, I'm way out on my farm and only have my iPhone right now. A little help would save me a LOT of hassle and running around. Thanks

LOL, that's the first thing I thought of too.

What/where is the TPS valve? Thanks

Yesterday I had to merge into heavy traffic, so I floored the throttle and the truck responded normally. It shifted at the correct, later, points and everything was fine. Now, it will ONLY shift at those shift points, regardless of throttle position. ( 1-2 shift: 28mph, 2-3 shift: 39mph) When I...

10lb was the smallest I could find with a metal head.

After some trial and error, it turns out the extinguisher bracket takes 8-32 hardware. I tried mounting the new extinguisher I bought with these size bolts and I have NO confidence in their holding ability. The hardware is far too small. I'll be welding some new studs to the floor bracket and...

I will. I've got a tap and die kit somewhere (I just moved) that would be a big help. Maybe I can uncover it before I make it to the hardware store.

Does anyone know the bolt thread size for the fire extinguisher bracket on the floor of these trucks?? My oh8 didn't come with an extinguisher, but I'd like to use the stock floor plate to mount the one I just bought. None of the leftover junk I have in my bolt box seems to fit though. Help!!

That's exactly what I was looking for. Thanks!!

I read the "Billavista" thread on Pirate 4x4 about the beadlocks, but I'm looking for some more H1 wheel specific info. I need to take apart, clean/paint and reassemble a set of H1 wheels for my M1008. Is there a TM section that covers these things with torque specs, etc.? Thanks!

I thought about doing a rear mounted tank too, until I stumbled across that bed. 3 tanks, now that's just greedy! :-D

If you delete the vacuum pump, what sends the vacuum signal to the trans and the fuel pump? Sorry for the hijack.

I'm in the process of adding a second tank to my '84 M1008. I wasn't planning on doing it, but I found a replacement bed (my original was hammered) that had the right side fuel door. I ended up scoring the right side tank, filler and brackets in the deal so I can run both tanks and not have to...
