LMC has it, but its $49 bucks! I need to go the other direction :-) http://www.lmctruck.com/icatalog/cc/full.aspx?Page=147

Thanks for the Part Numbers and Links antennaclimber. That is Exactly what I am looking for.... but a 'crappy reproduction' for $10 would have been good enough for me :smile: But... I would rather have one marked correctly, so I might have to break down and pay up, if I can't cross the part...

Hey All, I have an 1986 M1008, and I just replaced the dimmer (high beam) switch. While I was at it I wanted to replace the Turn Signal / Multi-fuction / Combination (or whatever other name it is listed under) Lever, as the plastic is cracked. However, I have searched all of the major...

rofl :popcorn: Sounds like your horn circuit is grounding to your headlight circuit somehow. When I first got my M1008, the horn sounded like a toy car, it was really high pitch, and really low. Since then, it has gotten much louder, but it is still really high pitch. Its funny, but it...

Wish I had figured out that the headlight dimmer switch ( high beam / bright light switch ) was UNDER the dash.... BEFORE I went and pulled the steering wheel, lock ring (without a lock ring compressor tool - made a tool but it was a lot harder), and everything else in there, only to have to put...

Sorry guys I haven't updated sooner. But we've been dealing with some other issues, and didn't get back to the truck until today. So here's the update: Today we pulled the Transfer Case inspection plate, but wasn't able to see much. However, I did notice that there was decent layer of oil...

Yes, about 550-600 lbs from what I've read! Thought about going with a used TC, but at the same time, I don't want to have the same problem again either.

Yep, I know exactly what you're saying. Have that problem myself sometimes... We have only been running it in high, as we've been highway driving for sometime now. We hadn't had any problem with it for the first... oh... 4000 miles or so that we've driven on it. Just started popping out in...

The guy we know here said he knows of a couple truck shops, so we were going to look into that. The u-joints is a good thought, especially since we're already going to have the shaft off. Might just replace them if they're not that much. Thanks for that thought [thumbzup]

I apologize gringeltaube looks like I got into to big of a hurry, and didn't spend enough time searching. I have now been through the posts you linked, and I found other connected links in those posts as well, plus a few more I found on my own. From what I have found, It looks like just for...

Hey All, Did some searching about this, but didn't find anything specifically. The Background: We're still trying to find a place to move to, and we have now driven the deuce about 4500-5000 miles over the last 8-9 months, pulling a trailer, plus about 9,500lbs in the bed. The Problem: A...

I have also done some searching about tires. It looks like the only new tires (currently being produced) is the Goodyear G177's. Once we get the alignment issue figured out, Dad wants to go ahead and get a new set of front tires, and at some point new tires for the whole truck. Anyone have an...

Thanks GL btw do you happen to know of a thread which explains how to use a PVC pipe to align?

Didn't notice the tread until we had been parked for at least a couple hours, so the tires were cool by that time. And yes, something that shop did, either un-intentional or not, had to have caused the problem, as the tires were fine until after we left there. ~Will check everything out and...

With that shop, anything seems possible :roll:.... They might have bent something... will get under it and check everything. Didn't notice any worse mileage than expected, when going up long inclines (a few at 6% grade) loaded, plus pulling a trailer. Hadn't thought of using a tape measure...

Ok, here's the Update: John finally fixed the problem with the brakes touching the drum on passenger side center duals. The return spring just wasn't pulling the shoes back in, most likely caused by it getting hot on the initial adjustment problem which is when they had to tow the deuce back to...

Good point Warthog, thanks. Have to call and talk to John and point that out specifically. Thanks

Good Advice plym49, but we don't have the stock seats in it. It has seats out of a Jeep Cherokee. ....I might as well as post this as I know someone is going to: nopics I'll try to take some when I get a chance. Also we have already adjusted the pedals down as far down as they will go. I...

Thanks Rosco, maybe you're right. We have a friend of our who is a truck driver, who basically said the same thing about staying in the same gear going up and down hill as you did. And no we don't care if we are going 20mph, just so long as the brakes work good, and its safe to drive. Other...

Thank for the tips guys and all the help, it is Much Appreciated. Yeah this shop is a major fail in my book, will make sure to never go back nor will I ever recommend I-State Truck Center to anyone. We met another guy there who had just had them install a new turbo charger on his semi, at...
