    Intake Vacuum Hose

    The cdr system has nothing to do with vacuum to the transmission. You have a vacuum pump for that.

    How to keep her cool?

    To be honest I would start by replacing the radiator or getting the current one rebuilt, then moving on to the modifications.

    How to keep her cool?

    Over the years I have seen several rear cylinder coolant bypass kits. Not one has claimed to reduce the operating temperature, just the rear cylinder head temperatures.

    CUCV 1986 M1008 - In a Real Pickle - Bad Heads - Need Advice

    I read the reviews and ratings and saw nothing negative relating to the 6.2 diesel, and went with them. Been 6-7 months still happy. I do run a little stanadyne lubricant with fill ups.

    Looking for some insight on a M1008

    If it had 4" less lift, a turbo, OD transmission and rear disc brakes I would say that it is worth 14k. But only after a compression test and a long test drive.

    5 new M1009 shocks
