Ok, but never in the US.

Came across these pics. Did they use 70's era GM trucks in the Military?

Yes. Mine no longer bounces or makes a noise. Basically adapting the small red tube from a can of white lithium grease to a piece of rubber with a hole in it like a piece of tube or anything that can seal against the speedometer cable outer housing. Pushes the lube up the housing. No need to...

Ever since I bought the truck, I've always had to slam the doors REALLY hard. I know the plastic bushing was missing form the door strikers but I didn't think it would make this much of a difference. Went out and bought some 1/2" Pex tubing in white at Home Depot for $1.58 for 5 feet. Cut off...

Thanks! 5" total lift. 4" Tuff Country EZ ride with 1" zero rate in the front, 58" F150 springs with shackle flip and 1" zero rates in the back for smoother ride. Tires are 37x12.5x17 and are very affordable for that size.

Productive weekend on the m1008. -Replaced 13g GP's with 60g. Seems to start quicker. -Installed Zerostart 1000w block heater -Lubed speedo cable. Found a neat trick to lube from the bottom by the trans. -Tried to touch up the camouflage job but didn't turn out so well. Time for total...

Looking to buy new glow plugs. Whats everyones favorite? AC Delco 60g? Or the AC Delco 13G? Or another brand? I don't mind if I have to modify the terminal just want the best plugs for cold weather starting.

You have to add the pulse module and order both turn signal stalk and switch. its not cheap but doable. I got a pulse board from a tilt column I may install.

If I had the room in my driveway, I'd scoop this up. M1009 for $700! clist link removed , site rule violation

I know that now but did not realize that when I first got the truck and the pump had to be replaced ASAP. All the parts are made to be interchangeable regardless of year.

I'm looking at replacing my belts too for a color change since I'm going all black. My current belts work fine but are a little faded. I found a new set on ebay for $150 for both sides but the only thing is the retractor base on ALL aftermarket seat belts do not match the OEM GM.

I got one from advance auto and used a 30% off coupon. Be sure to get the 84 pump. I tried to get an 1986 pump for my 86 and it was the wrong one.

Yes bleed screw is on top of the top left of the fuel filter base. Open it a 2 to 3 turns. Fuel will come out of the tube to the left of the screw. Pink wire should be here like in this pic. One by the oil fill tube. https://i.ytimg.com/vi/12U0ZWLgIlk/maxresdefault.jpg

Not sure why the $300 was on the reviews but the truck did sell for $8500. Good feedback was left. But I do see some negative reviews from that seller which may hurt any auction. I have bought and sold vehicles on ebay with no issues. Made $5k on an old Camaro one time. Sold my buddies...

I've seen decent M1008's sell on Gov Planet for $6500 http://www.govplanet.com/for-sale/Pickup-Trucks-1986-Chevrolet-D30-4x4-Pickup-Ohio/1204084 Also a lifted M1008 go for $8500 on ebay that needed paint...

I also had an issue with DIY4x recently. I love the products they make but after placing an order for ez-inch 1" blocks, shackle flip with HD shackles, a week goes by and it hasn't shipped. I called them up and Tracy said they were waiting for the EZ inch pins and might be another week. It...

Where did you get that? DIY4x has them for $88. http://diy4x.com/images/D/Guardsman.JPG

Try to purge the system. I've had to that a couple times. Also had my fuel filter clog up on cold morning and had to replace it which was overdue. 911 additive should help. I don't have an engine heater but I have used a small space heater on the fenderwell next to brake master. The way it was...

Looks great! I'll be selling my maroon panels since I'm going all black on the interior.

Here's a neat tip to restore the door panels. Clear paint. I used gloss since thats all I had laying around but I'd suggest a semi gloss. Before: After
