    Black-out lights?

    I'd sell both of mine. Also got two slave cable receptacles and two pintle hitches. Make offers, pay shipping.

    Black-out lights?

    I was meaning the one on the front. I just knocked out the black lens and put in a clear one cut from cheap safety goggles. One light was rusty, so it is getting a remake and some primer on the bulb bracket. I like the plate light idea, am going to do that.

    tall and narrow tires

    Thanks. Everything I've read says something about aspect ratio??? Reposted to decipher those numbers. I can wrap my S.A.E. mind around inch size tires, but these metric things boggle me.

    tall and narrow tires

    So far I've come up with 315/75/16 & 235/85/16 & 255/85/16 as being the tall and thin choices. Which is the tallest and thinnest? Is there even taller and thinner that would fit? I also have access to 16.5 rims.

    The large spaces are to make it fall evenly on the pages when printed.

    brake warning light

    Thanks guys. I did bleed it all around, but will try again and then the valve.

    brake warning light

    My warning light is on most all the time. What I've done is removed the power steering pump and thus drained the system and refilled. Replaced the rear brake lines at the same time. Lines are bled, and reservoir filled, but the light is on. Need to know what to do.

    Body lift and tires

    Wondering how much body lift can be put in a M1008 without "issues", and then how tall of a tire could be used to try to get to M1009 fuel mileage.

    Heat and the 6.2

    Mileage will always better warmer than cooler. Winters here see 40 below fairly often and the diesel will hardly light. Have you run any 2 stroke oil with your diesel? Makes a big difference.

    Dead Horse Issue: Tires

    I did a search, but never found a good answer. I am likely getting an M1008 and am wondering what tire size will fit stock and give the best fuel mileage? I'm looking for a tall and narrow size for winter use, that will up the mileage.

    M1008 Hydro Winch

    In regards to solenoid issues, I use one on my tractor for logging. I had to add an inline filter before the winch to keep the solenoids clean. It obviously needs to be a high pressure filter. Also, MileMarker replaced a faulty set for me as well.

    CUCV cheap headlight, great result

    One way to brighten your lights and better power them is to use a relay for the high beams and another for the low beams. As issued all the wiring is routed to the light switch and all the fuses and other controls. Instead install two relays powered directly from the batteries or a fuse box...
