    How far can I drill into the cab roof of my M1009?

If I remember correctly there was just less than 1/2" of space between the sheet metals. I used 1/4" sheet metal screws to mount the antenna. This was 6" from the rear of the...

    2stroke oil?

    I had a nice scare last year concerning the injectors on my duramax. I thought 3 had given up the ghost, diagnostics at 1 dealership and 2 private shops. When I took the truck to the last place, they kept, tested, and ran it for 2 weeks (I work offshore). They could find nothing wrong with the...

    front wheel bearing change?

    All the responses contained useful info. One of the best is Clintos post where go to a page for a step by step of the repair. Best of luck on your repair. BTW, you might want to do a search next time before posting. Thats what gets most of the 'oldies' agitated...although they are getting better.

    Quick, Cheap Glad Hand Inflator

    You can do it by hand, but it is real nice to have an impact! Just make sure to get the insurance...and a bottle of air tool oil. HF has the 12pc? impact socket set with the budd adaptor as well, very reasonable. Have fun!

    Quick, Cheap Glad Hand Inflator

    Napa has the glad hands, in all the colours you would care to want, for about $3.95each. You can then go to HF and get a air line, inflator/guage, & fittings. If I remember correctly, I spent all of $28 clams for the whole setup.
