    Installing suspension on M151

    Purchase a proper coil spring compression tool. Makes the job easier. And Safer. Unless with the travel all the down you can insert the coil freely, and then jack it into position for the fix. Every type of vehicle is a different job with varying methods.

    Extremely Negative Experience - Jared at Ft Carson CO

    Our group read this in total disbelief. You should really go to your congressman with all the well thought comments, and a proper form of action complaint. Good luck this was quite disturbing reading.

    M1008 front axle question

    Instant bad odor when front axle was engaged.

    Ok so I'm assuming it is an air shift. Well something in the drive line after the operation of that switch in caused the odour, So if the truck now moves back and forward ok on the level (out of 6 wheel drive) Park it up on the level and check out moving it short distances with the...

    Instant bad odor when front axle was engaged.

    Which model deuce do you have? And just how steep is your drive (or is it very loose chippings/slippery?) Why did you not look immediately under the truck to see where any oil was coming from and or hitting something hot.
