Its a slight cough... a hiccup every little bit. Then smooth... the a little hiccup. Definitely not motor mounts.

M1009. It runs good, starts very easy, etc. But, at idle (even when warmed up)... there is a little roughness that comes and goes. Well, it always does it... but it is not constant. Sitting at stop lights is when I notice it the most. Cant remember if I notice it when it is in park or not...

Thats a cool picture. I know how big deuces seem when you stand next to them. So, that picture really lets me know how big a 10 ton is!

I would like to see that picture. And throw a 5 ton in the middle to make it even better.

That is a true way to do it if you are lifting a truck with new, non sagging springs. If the front springs have sagged 2 inches say... then a 4 inch lift spring would actually give you 6 inches of lift. I still would go with a 2 inch spring and if you have to add a 1 inch block after that to...

No reason to get used to it. Just lube the cable, or replace the cable if the lube doesnt help.

Are these numbers M1008, M1009, etc. all together? Seems a little low.

Do you want to lift it also, or just level it out? I think 4 inch springs would raise it more than the rear. Try two inch springs in the front and nothing in the rear.

No reason to cut the blocks down, just order the kit with 2 inch blocks.

Depends on what you use your truck for. For a lot of people... locking it in on the street doesn't happen much. Like me... I would say that 95% of the time I lock it in... I am not on the road. So, I will gladly give up a little road manners for a huge improvement in off road ability, and I...

Wouldnt be very good in a functional way... but that picture looks kind of cool.

I agree with the lunch box/easy locker approach. Much better than a limited slip. And also... the axles are Corporate 10 bolts.

I agree... shouldnt crank slow. My M1008 is slow turning over and gets a little harder to start when its cold. My M1009 cranks like a bat outta **** and starts fine no matter the temp.

No, just the first time I inspected the fuel filter close. There was a date written on the filter which didnt cause me concern, so I have been taking core of other things first. And the bottle was tucked away nicely hidden. I have only had this truck about a month.

There is a hose out the bottom, which I understand to be the drain and then also a clear hose off the passenger side. Looks like it has been there a long time as the plastic is pretty hard and brittle. Then there is a old plastic Pepsi bottle tucked into the fender in its 'keeping place'. I...

After reading up on the fuel filter change, I went under the hood to to see for myself just what I needed to do. And what do I find!!! A 20 ouch pop bottle and two hoses all hooked up. Didnt need to prepare anything other than a new filter. It was all there and ready to go. And, somehow now...

I would love to find out some history on either my M1008 or M1009.

'Hunert mile'n arh tape!'

This site is great. I will be working late the next couple days. I may not get to this until Saturday late afternoon or Sunday (my day off). I will report back what I find! Thanks everyone.

Yes, I plan on searching for the reason the fuse blew. But, first I NEED to get my turn signals working again. Hate driving without turn signals. I was told that a single bad bulb can cause all the flashers to not work?
