I'd say yes. I'm 15 and bought a m1008 to fix up. there fine trucks, easy to work on, parts are easy to get for a military vehicle since it shares %90 of the parts with the civilian trucks. It's also relatively easy to work on. :-P

Thanks for sharing. I was thinking about doing the exact same thing with mine and it looks like it turned out good. Cool Rig [thumbzup]

:funny: yeah i dont know how happy my mom would be.(not to mention the dog) lol

yeah me too. He's just pumped up since its so nice and warm out, can finally go and run him around the farm and let loose some of that steam.

Now i don't need to walk him! :razz:

:drool::drool::drool::drool::drool::drool::drool: :not worthy: Can't wait to see it finished. Amazing job!

Alright thanks for the info. I was hoping to do a lift this summer and I'm pretty sure nothing been replaced on this truck yet so hopefully new shocks and springs will firm it up a bit. I guess I shouldn't use lift blocks for the rear?

I guess that's how u would describe it. I just found it odd since our 2500 dodge doesn't seem to do it and neither does my old dakota

yeah 4bogginchevys, u were right the rear was actually turnable and after some hard yanking on the wrench it came out. Just tapped the pitman arm with a hammer and it slowly slid right off. I sprayed some pb on the steering gear lines so hopefully they'll come off easy tommorrow when i have some...

Hey guys, After finishing my adventurous axle gasket fix now I'm working on pulling out my now cracked steering gear to replace it. In the tm it says for pitman arm removal to have the truck jacked on the frame. Do i need to do that just to pull it off the steering gear? Also any advice on...

SUCCESS!!! I still couldn't get it to turn with the wrench but when talking with my dad about it today turns out he had an impact wrench. Put on the proper adapter and nailed it with a mini sludge hammer couple times and waalah it came loose. Finally done the supposedly easy gear oil change...
