    M1009 Redneck Seat Repair

    I took my driver side seat over to the local upholstery guy a couple weeks ago. He took my name and number and told me he was a bit busy but it would take no more than a week. He was going to charge me $75 to add sponge and repair with something close. (This M1009 only had 18k on it when I got...

    Help With Finding Cheap Insurance

    Progressive "personal" will not insure over 3/4 ton. Progressive "commercial" will not insure pickup trucks. Don't even ask them to insure your M1008 or M1009. My policy got canceled today. The nice lady I talked to at Progressive "personal" thought she would share her vast knowledge with me...

I want to be able to throw any set on any truck AND I don't have the loot...

    2" wheel adapter... stock studs too short

    Mark...I have the same problem with my M1008. Are you SURE those will work? The studs don't even go through the nuts they are so short. I am seriously thinking about dually hubs. 9 turns does not go through those nuts does it? I put em on and drove around town ONCE slowly but am not driving that...
