I was going to do an update on how well the Milemarker winch was holding up so far. The midwest is in a pretty good drought so not alot of mud to speak of. Unless you've got farmer/rancher friends with ponds that are low :wink:. I pulled the usual downed tree's and other little jobs but nothing...

I paid around $350. I ended up getting it through Jeff's Bronco Graveyard. Lowest price I could find and I got it in three days, not too shabby. I looked at all the locker you listed above. All are great lockers but these are the reasons I went with the Spartan. E locker-expensive and you have...

One more I found. Spartan front locker test - YouTube

Couldn't get the video's to load so this is the only way I can think of to do it.

As of right now they are 34x10.5x16 Super Swamper LTB's. They do good but this is my daily driver and I have to rotate them about once or twice a month because that rear Detroit makes quick work of them. In all this they are aired up to 40lbs and performed flawlessly. 35" or 36's with some new...

Few more pics, still trying to figure out the videos!

Here's a few pics from last night testing out the new front locker. I'll see if I can get the videos to upload.

Looks like ya went with headers. The truck we converted's manifolds bolted straight up to the new motor. And for stock exhaust it doesn't sound half bad. Have you checked the mileage yet? I'm slowly kicking around the idea myself of a gas conversion. I would go by my boss's but he never keeps...

I was gonna take photo's of the install but honestly it went so fast and easy there wasn't much to write up photograph. The only problem I had was with removing the cross pin. With the lower gears one of the ring gear teeth wont allow the cross pin to slide out. So I was left with the choice of...

After much debating and looking at my checkbook I decided to invest in a Spartan "lunchbox locker". It showed up today and I will try to get it installed tonight. Install seems pretty straight forward, the price was right and I don't have to pull the carrier and all that. If I get time I'll...

Clean looking truck!! Of course the choice is yours, if you want a show piece leave it alone. If you want to be able to use it practically then the mod would be the way to go. I only wish I had a problem like this to consider........

Looks good. We put a GM performance 350 in my boss's truck and it was night and day difference in the power department. Prepare for a pretty decent drop in mileage.

Thanks patracy, I guess I'll just have to save my pennies and see how the Banks performs!

WARWAG do you have any experience with the Banks setup's EGT's while towing? Thats what I was hoping to find out. How fast EGT's climb while hitting a big long hill. I pull the 9k lb load with it out to the lake 20 round mile trip up some good hills with the NA 6.2 and it does pretty good for...

I would use the Detriot if you've already got it. Snow and icey roads seem to be everybody's big complaint with a front locker. I've ran front lockers in several of my rigs and in the snow and ice I just lock in one hub for normal driving (3 wheel drive) around where I have to make turns like...

I know that everyone says that its a different truck after the upgrade, but I was wondering about real world experiences on the CUCV setup for towing.. I know it is what it is and it will never be a D Max or Cummins. My concern is pulling a 9k lb camper up some decent hills. I know that EGT's...

Is the removal of the cylinder rack the only difference? Besides the contact trucks I have only seen one other M1031 variant. It was for sale on Purple Wave about a year ago. The Junction City Kansas police dept had it. The data plate said M1031 but it had a shelter box on it with heat and AC...

My winch isn't run by a PTO its run by the power steering pump. I guess I should have worded my post a little better. Look for my thread " My M1008 Milemarker Winch Bumper " and it will show you pics of how I mounted mine.
