    Dan's M1081 Pick-up and Build

    I am in need of a couple things that I have noticed are missing. Passenger door glass, turret cover, spare tire, light switch, fuse cover, and I'm missing a bunch of fuses. I will have to find a diagram that shows me which ones I need because I have no idea. Here's a picture for reference.

    Dan's M1081 Pick-up and Build

    Here's a couple more. When I got home I put the cover on by myself and that was a workout. But all in all it was an easy pull with the 5-ton and everything went smooth.

    Dan's M1081 Pick-up and Build

    As I did with the M998 I left early to try and beat Coffey1 to the site so I could start pulling driveshaft's and get it ready to pull. Him and Andy were gracious enough to help me with the pickup by bringing up the 5-ton to pull it back with because it's a non-runner. I took a bunch of pictures...

    Picked up my M998 today!!

    The taillights are LED, I think that's why you see a big difference.

    Picked up my M998 today!!

    I also started changing the lights over. I started with the headlights and than went on to the tails. The close up picture of the headlights shows the old one on the left and the new on the right. The taillight picture shows the difference between the old one on the left and the new one on the...

    Picked up my M998 today!!

    Started changing some fluids and did the engine oil first and also checked the air filter. Here's some pictures so far. Also pressure washed the truck today after work. Let me tell you how nice it is to not have to jack up the truck to work underneath.

    Inner fender to fender is 82.5" and the tires on the truck is 84" outer tire to tire. It's a tight squeeze but it works.

    Picked up my M998 today!!

    So I got it unloaded and got to work. Got the batteries charged and fired her up, and she sounds good. Started working on cleaning her up but it started to get dark out. I only got the hood cleaned up, and let me tell you she was filthy. In the pictures you can see the clean hood vs the parts I...
