    Pulling to right after lift

    based on this he should be able to test by putting in 4x4 and if it pulls to the left it would be a spring torquing issue? left because its opposite of what is happening for torque in the opposite direction..

    installing spacers

    if you have no one to put a spare foot on the brakes: for changing wheels i lock the hubs and shift it to 4x4 then put the trans in park. or to be better on the trans, shift it to neutral and then apply the parking brake.

    Putting a stereo and speakers in a CUCV pickup

    Where did you put the 6x9s? I have a friend that put them in her door, but i kindof want to leave the door as is for now. just wondering if you have another solution. i plan on fabbing up m own box/panel to go behind the seat and in the rear corners of the cab of my M1008.

    Bolt Size???

    thanks for the picture. my starter housing does not have the bolt sticking out like yours has to attatch to the bracket. I can probably just get a longer bolt for the end tho and geta strap from a dealer right? i'll try and get a picture up of it if that'll help

    Bolt Size???

    Is the bracket for the 24v starter the same size? im not sure how the size comparison is between the 12v and 24v models. Does anyone have one that they would be willing to sell or know of a seller/distributor? Does anyone have a picture of it under their truck for reference?
