    M1028 6" lift

    Has anybody else had a problem with the rear shock axle mounts? The lift has rolled the rear axle up in the front enough that the passenger side shock won't mount.

    Wrecker bed modification

    Best mounting points I have ever seen were along the outside of the frame, under the bed from the rear, with a hole drilled in the foot of the spade and a wing nut used to hold it to the body of the truck.

    Passenger side fuel tank installation

    Diesel doesn't need stabilization like gas but might want to add algaecide. I am adding the extra tank to my USMC 1028, already have the dual tank bed on the truck. But I think I will use the 5 ton dual tank valve and just let the stock switch change which tank the gauge is reading.

    Sounds like you cut up a set of axles from 102" trailer to fit 96" trailer? You could always just use a set of the M35 to 5 ton adapters, but I would like to just change hubs also if a 10 bolt set will swap. simp5782 knows more about swapping hubs around than I ever will, might get him to chime...

    M931a2 cooling issue

    Okay so I would drain all the coolant and remove the lower radiator hose and look athe the inside of the radiator there to check how clogged the radiator is. I have seen many of these trucks that looked good from the top that had several inches of mud like buildup in the bottom of the radiator.

    M936 Rear Winch Operations - Safety Question

    I would say that the outrigger out and dangling but only about a foot away from the bed of the truck would be all that is needed. That's what I was told to do but never have. Only rear cable I have ever broken was on 816 that I was overloading, pretty sure all of the 936's will bypas before...

    My awesome new PLATINUM motor oil!!!! Now my engine is making the bad noises.

    Unless you need the truck back up and running ASAP I would go ahead and do full rebuild. It is so easy if you have it down that far to at least check out all the bores and if anything is wrong change it. Also to clean out everything fill with gasoline and then diesel it should come out very...

    M936 Boom Safety - No Check Valves?

    Okay so as to the check valves I am 90 percent that they are there but as you said for a catastrophic failure not the easy down of the control valve, yes they are supposed to come down when the truck isn't running and you push the lever. It is not a power down system. Pretty sure if you get a...
