. The tailgate is raised/lowered with two winches. The spare is also mounted on a winch. I can let the tailgate down to horizontal and then lower the spare. The tailgate is also known as the "REDNECK DECK". When I lower it all the way, I can use my atv ramps to load my bike. ( the table and bed...

Cool, now I know bow to do it!

I'm on my phone, don't know if the pic will show up

Thanks, Blackrock!

Does anyone know what the speed rating is on Michelin 1600xr20 xzl tires? I'm running Goodyear 1600r20 a2 tires now with a speed rating of 55 mph. However my truck will run 70 mph comfortably, I had the tread separate @ 60 mph on a rear tire recently and things got pretty exciting immediately...

Thanks for the part #s etc. Due to time constraints I am forced to leave the truck where it's at for now. It's in a safe spot. Was leaving on an elk hunt tomorrow in it but have to regroup now. Again thanks to everyone who responded. Will update when I get to a real computer.

I lost an outer wheelbearing on a 2 1/2 ton Rockwell axle. Any part # info, bearing sources etc.would be appreciated. Very poor cell reception but here's my # anyway. Will check back here frequently.axle stub shaft is toast but don't need 4x4 to get back home, St Louis,mo. Dale @6365774260...

1600's The axles are front loader Rockwell model: fds 75chx, 6.14:1. The front has disc brakes and lockouts. The transmission is a 5 speed stick, unsure of the make. Chelsea transfer case with power take-off coupled to a hydraulic pump. The truck had a shingle conveyor for a roofing company...

1600's Thanks guys. These tires we a big part of my decision to buy the truck, but once i saw them in person i had serious doubts about driveability. I have been an off road enthusiast for as long as I can remember, and while I realize i don't know it all, experience tells me these babies may...

1600's The truck is stock as far as I know.

1600's My truck is extremely light compared to a duece and I plan on keeping it that way. Prolly install a flatbed with w/dump capabilities for small bobcat jobs that I get from time to time. Haven't had the opportunity to weigh it yet.

Ok guys, I need to pick your brains. I'm relatively new on here, found the site after I bought a CUCV. Long story short the CUCV wasn't cutting it for me, and I was yearning for a duece to bob, when I came across this 1985 Ford F700 4x4. (see pix). Decided to go look at it. The owner had been...

powerless Nice job!! I was toying with the idea of converting to a gas engine in my M1008, and just happened to mention this to a friend of mine who owns an auto repair business. His inspection tech overheard me and I was informed that if I converted to gas he would not be able to do the Mo...

spin on Yep! I like the water drain on the bottom, but you're gonna need a shortie filter if you put it in the same location as the stock one.

spin on I hear ya on the guage. AND I don't know if the guage is compatible with diesel fuel, but life is and experiment and until I have a failure with the guage, i'm gonna wing it!:jumpin:

Pix of my spin on filter set-up Ok, here's pix of what I'm planning. I would really like some feed back on this so I don't shoot myself in the foot....or worse...again!:cookoo: I was digging around in my shop for fittings and came across that dandy little pressure guage, apparently unused, and...

spin on Sam27, here's a pic of the spin on filter housing that I'm gonna put on my m1008. It's from a marine application. if you notice on top of the housing there are 4 ports. Two marked in and two marked out. I intend to use the extra "out" port to install a small brass bleeder/petcock...

I concur with buzzinhalfdozzen, if caster is incorrect, you won't be happy with any axle.

winch Yep! I've had that winch since 'bout '80, maybe '81. Had to have the motor rewound once. I have a control switch hidden behind the winch and another in the cab.

turn signals on all the time @ bshupe, mine were on too when I got my truck, but I found that the front side marker lights and turn signal sockets had bad connections/grounds. As soon as I had those lights all working the turn signals indicators went out. Hope this helps!:beer:
