    Cargo Body on Tractor Frame?

    M813s have 14 ft beds. M818s are about 2 ft shorter......so a 12ft standard deuce bed works fine. Just take the 5th wheel/plates/tire rack/tool box off & bolt a deuce bed right on. I have one sitting here if you want to trade me for the 5th wheel stuff that you have to take off...

    can hemtt rims be reversed

    Are you referring to the modified hemtt rims on ebay? He is a member here, his username is "ccequipment". Personally, I think that they are the BEST looking deuce rims I have seen. And, when you figure in the savings of having 2 piece rims (that you can mount a tire onto yourself) vs a 1...

    average cost of a m816 at auction?

    $6,000-15,000 on GL. Keep in mind.....if you buy a rolling pile of rust, you will spend a LOT more than the purchase price just to get it on the road! 2cents

    Take the batts out of your M1008 & put them in it! Then just buy new ones for the M1008 from walmart. I can post the stock # for the ones I put in my M1009 & they work great & are only $75/each. 2cents

    One dead Deuce battery

    It takes both to start the truck....since they are 2 linked 12volt batts that make 24volts. The deuce will run without batts even hooked up once it is started. I have had this happen more than once, and each time it was one of two things. #1 - Dead batt that would not hold a charge. #2 -...

    rear axle leak advice

    Yep....my first response covered both....the axle flange (thank you for the correct wording!) and also the outer oil seal. If gear oil is running out of the inside of the wheel....then it is leaking out around the brake drum. This can & will cause braking failure on that side of that axle...

    rear axle leak advice

    I am assuming it is leaking from behind the inside tire (closest to the center of the axle). If it is just leaking around the axle seal...FOLLOW MADDAWG308'S HOW-TO ....that takes 20 minutes & RTV high-temp sealant only. You will not need to order anything from ODIron. Just go to autozone...

    rear axle leak advice

    You can replace your outer wheel seal without taking really anything heavy apart. Just unbolt the axle shaft, pull it out, remove the axle nut, lockring, and old wheel seal.....then install a new wheel seal & put everything back! Make sure you put a nice bead of RTV high-temp sealant around...

    M35A1 starting issues, with vid for diagnosis

    Are you sure your injector pump is working? The fuel pump would push fuel through it & it would squirt out of any point from the tank until the last injector return line.....it just would not pressurize the fuel enough to make the engine run. Remove the fuel pump power cord, turn the accessory...
