changed the oil and dropped the trans pan/drained/replaced filter on the M1010. Weird thing is... there was almost no odor from the trans fluid, and it was still a reddish pink, with almost no particles on the magnet in the pan... But, it had been sitting for at least 6 years so, out it went...

My M1010 LIVES! Good/Bad. Took it to a shop, had them go over it with a fine tooth comb... They got it started... The IP had some crud it in, some stuck seals, and a leaking seal. They didn't R&R the IP because I told them not to. It's got a tiny leak at the throttle line, but I was told it...

Walked into HD, gave them the 3 fed #s, walked out 10 mins later with 3 gals of 1 gal ea tan, blk, green... Giggity. He commented that he'd never heard of the federal standard #s, then noticed the colors, and asked me who/why they wanted to paint a house camo.. L O L. I explained to him, he...

If it's filtered properly, yes. I use a filtration system comprised of descending filters, from 30 micron to 1 micron, and run it through twice, before I dump it into my tank. I run 50% WMO, as an additive, hehehe.... cuts my diesel fuel consumption in half and doubled my MPG on D2! :D Now...

3.73s in my m1009. OMG. It's like a new truck. I can actually merge into traffic, get off the line, change lanes, etc. I can tell it's revving higher but I can't help my foot...

It's a 3.73...which I wanted. .. but now I gotta change the front to match if I wanna use 4wd on anything but ice..heh...

Got a replacement rear from the junkyard, only to realize it was an open and not a locker... So, got to take it back tomorrow, and hopefully they'll have the one I need... Meanwhile....

Last night I about grenaded my rear end.. Pulled the cover to find missing teeth, and a bunch of metal shavings.. Picked up another 10 bolt LSd at a junkyard.... looks pretty good. Some wear on the teeth, but should last me another 50K+ I also picked up some sliders... The rear axle and the...

It's not just the starter. Your glow plugs will pull a hundred amps easy.....

Figured out why my M1010 was cranking so slow... The guy who is rebuilding it said it's probably dragging on the coils(?) too.... Also noticed the solenoid wire had been cut and soldered back together, and one of the mounts on the starter was crushed..Which tells me someone pulled the starter...

Scheduling off now.. Hopefully will have my M1010 up and running by then.

Says tabs aren't required, and says "A restored license plate is a Washington-issued license plate that was designed for use in the year of the vehicle’s manufacture." A strict view would mean that only from that year. A common sense rule would mean that it must use a plate series during that...

.Gov doesn't mess around with Type 1 crypto. Had a guy on another forum YEARS ago try and ID a part # that wasn't listed anywhere. It wasn't listed because the part # was a restricted gov only item. Those of us who knew, told the guy it didn't exist *wink*, don't mess with it, burn it in the...

Each base is different..but generally..yes I used two L brackets. They're bolted together. I screwed one bracket to the firewall then measured and screwed the second bracket in...using self tapping screws. Then the other line bracket was bolted to the ones on the firewall. So it's now a U...

Hahah.... I'm not one for being pc. You have more experience in this arena than I do, hence why I was asking. I'll defer to your experience. Feel free to correct me. I'm still gonna try and slide one by them..heh... the plates are like 10 a pair...if I can swing it...the plates will be all but...

I stand corrected.

Make sure you get some oil/gas rated thread tape.

Yes. From what I understand..you're still issued collector plates..but it's noted on your registration that the other plates are optional.

It's all brass.... Also, it's only used for bleeding.. So it won't be used that often... I'm a big fan of 'go big or go home'... FYI - got it in....

Are they that smart to know the difference? Can I get a '62 plate (all green with white lettering) and put an '84 tab on it to look legit, instead of getting an '82-? Plate (all white, with green lettering) Are they actually gonna go look in the book and say that tag is too old? From what I...
