    Tire stuck

    It should slide out with minimal effort but it's not at all. It's very stuck.

    Tire stuck

    Thank you prokysplace for giving me a call and explaining how to get it out. I got the drivers side all taken apart and put back together. But the passenger side is stuck on. I got the snap ring out and the inside gear should slide out now, but it's stuck in there. What I did was take all 6...

    I took a picture of where I'm stuck at. I can't figure out what needs to come off next.

    Tire stuck

    Well now I'm trying to get the hubs off so I can repack the bearings. They seem stuck on there but I might be missing something. Anyone have any idea of how to get them off?

    Tire stuck

    I got it off. I put the lug nuts on real loose and took it off road. Worked like a charm. The nabors were looking a me kind of funny though when I was rolling down the road with a flat tire. Thank for the help.

    Tire stuck

    I popped my front drivers side tire and I'm tring to replace it. This should be the easiest thing I have ever had to do with this truck, but for some reason it's stuck on there. I took all the lug nuts off and it should just slide right off but I guess it's rusted on there. I've tried kicking...

    Fuel Economy

    I going to add a turbo to see if I get more MPG. Does anyone know where I can get a used turbo for under $400?

    Fuel Economy

    I just did the math, I drove 1030 miles on 70 gallons of B100 biodiesel, mainly highway. That's 14.7 MPG. I'm about to fill my tank with regular diesel and see how many MPG I'm getting.

    Corpus Christi - WVO

    I'm looking for WVO in Coupus Christi, TX or other people in Corpus who use Biodiesel or WVO. I just bought 55 gallons of B100 south of Houston and now I'm hooked on alternative fuels. The only problem is I can't find anyone in my area who does it, I can't find any WVO either. I've tried calling...

    Fuel Economy

    Ya, I can't spell. I was thinking about putting a turbo on my M1009. If I put one on would I get better fuel economy and more horsepower? What turbo charger should I put on it?

    Fuel Economy

    Hello everyone, I have an 84 blazer, 6.2 diesel. It's been running great, it's a perfect road trip vehicle (it will be when I convert it to run on WVO). It runs great but I'm hoping to improve the fuel economy. Right now I would say I'm getting about 14 MPG highway (running on biodiesel, B100)...

    M1009 Questions

    I am an owner of a 1984 M1009. I heard that if you turn up the fuel pump on this vehicle that it will increase the horsepower and fuel economy, is this ture? Also what does locking the wheel hubs do? I've been told that I have to do that in order to put it in 4 wheel drive that is locks the hubs...
