I was thinking about trying fry oil and gas. What ratio would you recommend I start with?

And now it begins

Installed and adjusted fan belts, now the Gen 2 light no longer flickers on and off (note to self replace Gen 1 light that never goes on). Also I must get my cig lighter housing out of the box and installed.

Sergeant why are you trying to sugar coat this?

Why do you say a "lifted truck [is] more trouble than [it's] with"? I was planning to lift my M1008 5" to 6" and slide the 37"ers under it but I have never done this before. What problems will I be creating?

My next question would be, can you put run flats on those rims?

I don't know Corporal. I have seen threads that talk about re-centering the Hummer wheels (what ever that is) but I don't know if the wheels just bolt up without spacers. BUT if we keep this thread going maybe someone with more knowledge/experience will jump in.

This thread is almost 5 years old. What did you end up with ? I am looking at going the same route.

With lots of help from my nephew got my new starter RE-installed with the proper tail bracket. Keeping my fingers crossed that will fix my starting problems without shims.

Switched out the relay under the dash (easiest thing to do and dry even in the rain) but same same. So this Saturday, with help, I'll look into it... now that I had it towed home again. Just off hand I think my M1008 was from a mechanized unit and not a ranger unit because it seems to ride...

HELP! I replaced my tired starter with a new gear reduction starter and everything worked great... for a couple of weeks. Then I got in and turned the key to get nothing. I thought maybe it was me and tried a second time to again have it work perfectly. That was a few days ago and things...

Any MV vehicle that is newer than July 1st 1985 is illegal in the state of Georgia per the currently laws. You may have a registration and license plate today but the state has every right to revoke your registration and you will have to go to court to get your rights back. Now weigh the...

Now you've done it nephew... you'll see all the leaks... that's why I try to keep mine sealed in a good coat of dirt grime

I too find I have started a parts collection I may not need but need the parts I do not have. For now however I find I am in need of a starter bracket, having had "modified" mine yesterday to fit a new starter (but would I would like to be able to rebuild the old one for a spare). So please...

When I bought my CUCV I was told it would need a starter someday. So I bought a new starter on E-bay but put off that someday but now I think that day is here, slow cranking and draining the batteries in two attempts to start at 10 seconds each. Any last minute words of wisdom before I crawl...

and you still had time to work on your uncle's M1008!

Just happen to still have a set of those my daughter got me for Christmas. Now all I have to do is hunt down the leads for them and find the time to do it.

Box part #DRX00070

I was the one using the term "mil spec" both GPs and GP relay were advertized online as "military surplus" (and you know they can't lie on the internet, lol). The relay was identical to the one that was in there except it didn't rattle. Even though the GPs looked and fit the same I was a little...

IT'S ALIVE! Well it was. Yesterday I replaced the last GP and she fired right up running just fine. Took her out for a spin and even took her out into a field in 4H (she would not go into 4L but that's another problem). This mornin I got back in her ... turned the key... Wait light came on...
