Thread from the dead! So my serial # behind Cyl#8 is UJN 024 so all the letters are past L(dec?) So what gives on my date? Funny way of spelling June? The last digit denotes '84 and thats the year of my M1008. The story is it is an outsourced reman engine. I guess the buyer requested or got...

cool idea going to the 6.5. I was thinking the same thing today as my 91k mile 6.2 rehab is getting finished up at the shop...bosch injectors, rebuilt ip turned up and glows + valve covers and fr seal(rear seal/pan just done)

I say any good weather Saturday night at Home Depot in Kemah(Fall weather soon!) is a good stop between 5:30-9pm usually a big turnout of cars and 1-3 MV's show already. Get enough cuc's and dueces to the show people would love it. Come and go as you please + its surrounded by the restraunts and...

Last weekend I picked it up from local shop, got a 14FF done, 8 lug stuff all around, Already had new tires on 15" so I went cheapo route w $74 Bart super truckers from Summit 15/10", regeared truck to 3:73 F/R. FR is locked but rear is still open(cheap cant complain) rear 10bolt is of course...

Switched pintle mounts to the 1008 donor piece I had. Generic receiver welded(peanut butter welds by freinds coworker - not me!) on. I hit it w black paint before I threw it together. Now able to haul the bike rack to BMX track/trails leave rear window/gate alone. It was a pita getting...

Ill clarify, I re-read what I wrote.. im not eliminating the pintle. Im replacing my bent pintle support w/ a non-bent pintle support(donor 1008 piece)that has a reciever welded directly under the pintle. Gotta swap over the 1009 swivel to replace the 'fixed' 1008 ball/pintle 1st now...
