    What the heck is going on now?

    when i used an in-line filter on mine, it ran fine for a couple weeks, then ran crappy. i bypassed the filter altogether with a piece of steel fuel line, and it ran great. So i found an original fuel filter and housing, hooked it up and all is well. ( my original fuel filter housing that came on...

    goodyear wrangler tires

    I run these on my jeep, I sarted at about 35 psi, but wanted a softer ride. Now I'm down to 15 psi, and they still ride the same, look the same, and flex the same. Maybe I should try zero psi... Or maybe a couple pounds of vaccuum instead?

    cucv prepurchase inspection tips

    bkwud, When I got mine, it had no starter. I've since bought a new starter, and it has worked fine. What is this support bracket you speak of? Am I in danger? Joe.

    M1009 intank check valve

    If there is nowhere for air to get in, then fuel wouldn't return just from gravity. If there was a place for air to get in, this "place" would be called a fuel leak.

    Wow, very nice. Not just talking about it, doing it. Looks like you used the stock motor mount location. Is it the same with a small block conversion? Thanks for the info.

    slave cable

    C.A.R.C. Cost and Supply:

    I dont think you guys should be painting these anyway. My M1028 is crusty, rusty, crappy, and crunchy, and thats what is cool about it. You can take any truck and put CARC on it. Why not just take a sorry half-ton 2 wheel drive pick-up, and put your CARC on it? (check the link) Thats whats cool...

    1009 transmission trouble - AGAIN

    If when you had it rebuilt, they installed a new vaccum modulator, you can pull off the vaccum hose, and stick a very small flat blade screwdriver, and turn it counter clockwise to lower the shift points, clockwise to raise the shift points. When my th400 was gone through, it had way too high...

    M1010 AC in a M1009

    Never seen it for the cab. Parts of the A/C system are on the box, so the stock system would need major retrofitting.

    Got my M1008 home

    I would definately not put any money into that motor. I only had to buy 2 batterys, a starter, and a fuel filter assembly, and that was alot of money! So, now i have a very sluggish, out-dated set-up. I should have yanked it from jump street. Now that i have the money in it, i feel somewhat...
