$610 clams to retube the driveshaft. I’d love to find the fork lift operator and give him the bill. Cold today. Gonna concentrate on work on the trail M1165

Tylenol??? Please fix your spellchecker. I think you misspelled ETHANOL.

Rear axle out. In the process of being re-tubed. That recommended U-joint tool did great GeneralD. Many thanks! Front axle has forklift damage too. So do BOTH rear shocks. I’m assured that the forklift operator was careful and used both his cane and his seeing eye dog. 😖 Purchased a turret...

Welcome BUT nopics

Torn hose. Loose fitting. Broken valve? Soapy water and spray gun and isolate leak and post pictures.

What type of vehicle? If you have a 6.2 engine, the harmonic balancer has a nasty habit of getting loose and you start shaking like crazy. Edit-seems like your sig line states 2004 M1123… If you’re harmonic, balancer itself has gone bad, that can also cause shaking. That is in addition to...

Please educate this newbie on preferred electric alternatives. I actually like electric. Which or what winch and best attachment sites and methods. And many thanks.

Many thanks… wish I had a PTO

Thanks. Ordered.

I will go with Monroe 65456 at least for the short run. I understand the limitations. There is an axle shoppe that will repair and balance front and rear driveshafts. The place is 15 miles from the truck. Not bad. I will use 3mm thick cold roll to make the turret cap. Plasma cutter and drill...

I’m not afraid to customize. Where can I find the replacement options?

My rig has a bent shock from a forking forklift at GovPlanet facility. Same with drive shaft and tie rod

All great suggestions and viewpoints. Many thanks. What about shock absorber alternatives?

Truck axle place within 15 miles so gonna remove rear drive shaft and get her retubed and balanced. Any idea what shocks can be substituted and swapped into these rigs that don’t break the bank?

I did some research on the interweb and made contact with this gentleman. M1043 A2. 2001??? He has owned it since 2019 and has driven a few 1000 miles. Currently, he loses power and gets black smoke at speed. He has swapped out a new fuel pump BUT didn’t know the trick to keep the pushrod up...

Read my sig line for DIY PCB/EESS box instructions. Lots of happy rebuilders.
