My M109 is called Big 9, because my M1009 is called Little 9

those wheels sure look like they didn't need a sandblasting!

geez, I thought GL was becoming a subsidiary of the IRS or somethin'

I thought this was pretty cool as an alternative fuel for an A10. 46th tests alcohol-based fuel in A-10

I run a purge on my tanks after every drive. I had that issue in cold weather or after a lot of brake pumping. Seems better since I did the air system purge. Probably need to service your air dryer as well.

All of the 3116-powered A3's have Allison 1545 auto's...or did I miss something?

Well, there's NO way I'd ever run more than 65 in my m109...but it would sure be nice not to run up against 2700 whenever I'm on a highway. Just need the justify on the 3600...well, 4200, because I want to do manual lockers on the front axle too.

well where's the fun in that?

I can't say for the 923, but the M35's need to have the head unit sent back to the manufacturer...AND you have to worry about blowing seals with the higher pressures

I guess my question of 'is $3600+Labor worth it to increase top speed?' question has to be tempered with 'will the 3116 move an M109 that fast if I already have 395's?'

what'd you pay, and where'd you get it?

mine showed in 3 as well....good to have a spare on the shelf

Shouldn't you be able to run 70 on the m1009 Blazer....if everything else is mechanically sound? The m1009 has the 3.08 gears and a THM400, right? It's not like you're running a 1008 at that speed. At 70 with a 1009, you shouldn't be anywhere near governor speed.

would you allow someone to send you shipping costs to get a kit?

he meant a ROOT beer.....

putting that Mitchell in is going to limit the amount of articulation of the rear suspension due to driveshaft angle limitations.

you might want to post in Carnac's 2012 VIN thread to see if hea can track it down to you.

and it's also on the frame behind the driver's side front wheel. At least mine were(are) the same

That's Erik's from Erik's military surplus, and it is a Mitchell 3000a splitter. Good luck finding one. It takes a TON of mods to fit, drive shafts, cross member, etc. Also, that splitter makes the deuce pretty much a road-only truck because of the angle-limitations from the shorter fabricated...
