    M1008 Dash Lights

    All of the connection are good except the gen 2 connections. I have tried to clean the spot where the light goes with a pencil eraser with no luck. I do not know how to fix the corroded ribbon wire.

    M1008 Dash Lights

    Recently I noticed that my gen 2 light was not coming on before I started the truck. On closer inspection i noticed that i had lost my dash lights. I decided to pull the cluster and take a look. What is the best way to test the lights in the cluster while not being in the truck?

    Cucv Hard Start

    I have a 86 m1008 that cranks very slow (like dead batteries) when you first turn the key. After turning the key after a minute or two it will crank fast enough to start. After it is warmed up it will start right up. The truck has good batteries, new battery cables,new positive starter cable...

    M1008 Rear Differential Hose

    I have a 86 m1008 and was looking under it and saw this hose coming out of the rear differential. I don't know if the rest of the hose is missing or if it was never there. If it is all there and nothing is missing, what is the purpose of the hose?

    Gen 1 & Gen 2 light ?

    When I turn my M1008 to the accessory position (before I start) only the Gen 1 light comes on. I have heard that they are both supposed to come on. Any ideas?
