bshupe, no, please do. The winch weight is 125lbs, which is why I am going to amsteel synthetic rope. And I can always relocate the winch towards the rear. Amsteel rope is supposed to be a third lighter.
In the event I go max weight, I wanted the highest rating I could afford. I think your...
Both, the thread is the conversation, I guess, then the statement, about the tires I chose.
This BOV is my tsunami escape vehicle. Oh, the tires were, $228.00.Sorry bro.
I checked all the threads associated with this topic, and found that all five threads were about either lifting, or somehow putting HUMVEE tires on there rigs. Well I guess I will start a thread about people who don't want to lift there rigs, and still install the largest tires possible. I...
I agree with dstang97. A 6.2 is a 6.2. They were made to pull in configuration with the drivetrain. Nothing fancy. Check into Acetone, works great in my jap hooptie work car, A to B work car that is.
Acetone in diesel fuel
Someone asked what type muffler I had, they are flowmasters. Yeah thanks Doghead, great idea, I ain't got the money for those though. I figure if I need chains, I'll just buy them for each tire. Heard this will be a **** of a winter up here this year. Working for Napa has its bennies!:D
I have these battteries since I 've owned my M1008, the numbers speak for themselves. 3yr warranty limited, 18 months no ask exchange. My cost is $75.00, I work for Napa.
Within 2 weeks of getting my M1008 I checked the wheel bearings and got new seals and bearings, and packed them with Marine Grease. It seems the motor pool forgot to PM them, they needed them bad.
Don't know what kind of muffler, nothing fancy, but told installer to make it as quiet as possible. Here is the link to the video for the sound effects.

There are many electrons (electric charges) in the air. These electrons move...
Will post video real soon, so that you all can hear it. I wanted it as quiet as possible, for stealth, LOL. If I put the snorkel in the middle of the hood, the police might get me for obstructed view violation, the snorkel will go where the vent is on the side. The exhaust port is there already...
Installed a new single stack exhaust. Old exhaust was fairly rusted, like swiss cheese. Went with a single stack to save cash, and in the event I have to go swimming one day. Performance jumped, and is more silent than the old dual exhaust setup. Will also install a heat shield. Next project is...
When I got my M1008, it had a hard time starting, PO did not understand problems associated with the 1008. First thing I did was get rid of the coffin filter and goto spin on fuel filter. Go with Doghead conversions, get rid of the resistor bank and go to manual glow plug... Good Luck
Fuel Sending Unit
I work for Napa, just ask for the sending unit for the "correct side sending unit". When I replaced my unit, I flushed my tank with water. I let it air dry, and put alcohol to flush out the rest of the junk in there. Then cut out the hard connection fuel tube and added rubber...
Thanks again rickf, I think I need to first get the winch opened and inspect the guts, verify the serial numbers to check specs for upgrade and service. Maybe the 8274 has the weaker motor or whatever. Appreciate the help rickf. What do you think?
