I have a vinyl bed cover on my deuce, both "hatches" have the stitching torn out around the edge. I want to sew them back up, my feminine side is coming out. Seriously, The thread is thicker than the stuff my wife purchased to do the repairs. Anyone know what thread I should be looking for...

Hey guys wondering if I should/can break a tire bead jacking up my deuce, putting the rim and tire under the tire and lowering it? I got my spare back from a shop with new oring and grommet, the oring is leaking. They did the first one perfect, but this one is a redo. Want to try my own hand...

IS the 6CTA8 engine a desirable engine?

IS the 6CTA8 engine a desirable engine?

Apparently the dopes in St. Paul don't know what they are doing. They had my a3 plated with 1 ton plates, no they're telling me to surrender them, wrong plates. What plates will I get? This is not a commercial vehicle or venture, do they give you some other plate I don't know about or do they...

Got it on the road last week. Trans was leaking a little, took it in for gasket and filter replacement. Turns out its the seal....errrrrr. Just got done fixing the backwindow,regulator and sash, now this. They're estimating 900 to do it. Sound about right? I really don't want to pull it myself.

I was so tempted. One of them went for a steal

If they are bad, would the resistance be high or low or can be either way? Just curious. Of the 6 I tested they were all about 1 ohm which is in range from what I've read.

Would be sweet to delude myself that the M1009 I bought has 32,000 miles on it as Gl listed. (don't blame them though, the odometers aren't 6 digit.) What should I look for on these trucks to determine whether it's actually 32k or 132K? What tires were originally on an 86 M1009? Any way to...

I read somewhere in the TM's to blip the throttle, I do that and mine goes out and stays out. Wondering why it comes on though in the first place? Brand new batteries BTW.

Found this little nugget in the TM. Guess I bought the relay for nothing. Oh well spare part and saves me the little trouble of doing it. Mine was produced in 12/85 42.1. STARTER STAYS ENGAGED NOTE Original starter relays on vehicles prior to July 1985 production were defective. The point...

Anybody catch how much the wrecker in Sparta went for yesterday? I had to hit the sack, last I saw it was in the 8k range.

I stopped at NAPA to buy the relay, of course they didn't have it on hand. The guy said it's a 12V 200 amp relay. Is this for the 12V conversion or is it satisfactory for the standard 24V application? Thanks.

After heading to Oreilly's auto parts and having a side post battery put on the counter then two top posts the same size when I said it's not a side post, getting them home to find they're not even close, WHAT GENERIC batteries are the same size to fit in the trays? I don't want to spend $200 on...

Does anyone make a set that uses the same key for the doors and ignition for a blazer? Almost locked myself out as my ignition key doesn't work for the door and the only key I got.

Special thanks to JBL for retrieving it from the base and holding it a couple days inspecting it and fixing a tire ect. Started with a jump, runs great, lights all work. Fueled it up at Sparta, ran home between 65-70, a little over 200 miles, gauge is reading 1/2 tank. Call me lucky, 2 for 2...

I'm unclear how the separation of 24V and 12 in these trucks works. Can I jump a weak battery with my 12V vehicle to get a M1009 started or do I need to use the 24V slave connector?

Need someone that could recover M1009 in Sparta or place to store if I can't get it home in time.

I'm in need of someone to ship a M1009 from Sparta,WI to Zimmerman, MN. About 207 miles. Any suggestions on haulers? I've got one quote of $350 so far.

Deuce kills!
