    Would a trading section in the classifieds be useful

    I'm not a master trader by no means; however, I enjoy trading when the opportunity arises. Does anyone else see a need for a barter (trade only) section in the classifieds. I never like to ask someone about trading if they don't mention it in a for sale ad. I feel like I'm harassing them in a...

    Can anyone identify this Hercules engine?

    I'm buying this engine bolted to a 4 speed transmission in a chevy box truck. I know it is a 4 cylinder hercules turbo diesel, but I would like to know the exact model. I may drop it into my farm use 08 with a blown motor or use it on a generator. It just depends on how much power it has. I've...

    If it can be broke, I will break it. Therefore, I have broken it.

    I bought another M1008 last week and changed the starter (DH) relay. Well, I normally add a third battery in all my CUCVs. This time, I added four because of the dual winches and 5500w power inverter. It caused the new starter (DH) relay to fail. I just had to have another battery! It's a hard...

    A Possible Injector Pump Issue (M1008)

    I have been running WMO for about six months now. I started with a mixture of diesel (20%) and WMO (80%) filtered to 1 micron.

    No Brakes

    After hauling a 3 ton load of junk to the recycling yard, I arrived home with no brakes. I haven't done much investigating yet. After de-salting the truck I pulled it into the garage. I noticed the brake light on and the pedal went to the floor. Front fluid reservoir was empty. No signs of any...

    Anyone interested in running a convoy on the Hatfield Mcoy trail in WV around June?

    I live about five miles from one of the the hatfield mcoy trailheads. It's really an extensive trail. I took my m1008 on it last fall. It can be as simple as cross country trail riding or as insane as you desire. Many optional hill climbs. It is primarily a quad trail, but is wide enough to...

    M1008 Hanging Low (not in a good way)!

    During the installation of homemade mud flaps, I noticed that the drivers side of my 85 m1008 is sitting about an inch lower than the passenger side. I measured off the frame, in a level garage, for these results. Note, I am not fat so don't blame obesity for the drivers side sinking. :cookoo:

    85 M1008 Four wheel drive / transfer case problems

    I am having problems with my four wheel drive(1985 M1008). Everything worked correctly until today. I can easily shift through the transfer case ranges; however, 4-H will not engage. Four Low works well. Any ideas?
