Here are some pics of my "new" M1008 and some ???'

New to these and have a couple ?'S.

1)Are all the 6.2 s the same in these ?

2)Are the banks turbo's a good upgrade and are they fairly easy to install?

3)How much lift would I need to clear 44" tires ?

4) Is there a Detroit locker in the rear of these ?

Here is a link:

hey I just talked to fred and herd about the CUCV looks cool I would think you need 6inch's of lift or so and mike should know about the locker.

4. Yes, should be. One way to find out!

I had an ATS turbo kit on my old 6.2 crew cab 1 ton. It helped liven up the motor a bit till I melted 3 pistons letting a friend borrow the truck with the fuel turned up too much. The installation of the kit was easy. The Banks kit was a factory option on the 6.2 back in the day. Definately worth the upgrade. You should be able to find a used kit on ebay. Looks like a cool project.

I would think 44's would be way more than 4-6".

On my 77 Chev it took 9" to clear 40s and that was with clipped front fenders. Sawzall could fit them on though

He is going to put the whole drivetrain fron the M1008 in one of his M715's..He figured a spring over and the 44's should fit ok..He is concerned that the 6.2 won't have the power to handle the 44's though..
