Cut the pin in half with a drimel or grind the top of the pin off and hammer it out with a long punch pull with and vice Grips

Man Ya'll do it the hard way. I get a drimel and cut the pin in half and it pops right out like 2 pins instead of one. then when i re-install I just put the pin in upside down and put a carter pin with a washer in the hole that I drilled in the pin so that it dose not fall out. This way you...

You could always go down to the trans and unplug the Odometer and put a drimel on it. I beleave that might make it spine at about 900 miles an hour and only take a couple of days. But I realy like the keep your old one and give it to the new buyer idea better

"""""""""""""""""""excessive or unusual noise.""""""""""""""""""""""Realy! Tell that to all those Hondas and other Jap cars in San Antonio They put mufflers on them just to make noise. I love the look on there face when I pass them up daily on the freeway pulling my landscape trailer.

I had one crack one time and fixed it in less than 45 seconds with a red hot glowing screw driver tip.It welded the crack right up and still is working a year later. They also have something called a plastic weld kit at the parts store. I am just guessing it must be like JB weld but alot...

How many miles are on your truck? I am glad it is not your rear end that you have to change.

My rule is that I dont buy blind. I go look at them before I place a bid. I show up and inspect them and the Gsa down the street from my house lets me drive them also GL here in San Antonio lets me do the same. If they are out of town I call them and ask them Questions about them and if...

I do not like car lots. In fact I cant stand them Most of the times that I have been to car lots they all ask the same question, What do I want to spend and then they follow me around like a hungry dog looking for a treat while knowing nothing about the car or truck they are tring to...

put it on 4 jack stands and put it in gear in 4wd and then look around. I have had mud dried up in the drums and rotors that made a grinding noise. But first check the oil level

Looks good ! Looks like it would be great for pushing through brush on Flat level ground.

At least you got something on the door. Some one stole my door and cab data plate off of my 1985 m1008

They might have been older . I bought the truck 4 years ago and it was parked 4 years before it went to auction. I scored because the Texas parks Service got it from down the street at Fort Sam and never cold get it running so they parked it from day one. After the auction ended I showed up...
