    NV4500 Turbo400 trans swap

    I believe those SM465's are just a 3 speed (no OD) with a granny 1st.

    What neighbors have to say about my new M1009

    RE: Re: RE: Nice mail I am glad my neighbors were cool about my truck being parked in the street for a month or so while I fixed the head gasket this summer, and whenever I start it it is loud(no muffler) and smokes like crazy. No complaints yet!! ::Knock on wood::

    Pulley??

    About the two types...is one more common to see or one better? If it is tight, how would I go about finding out if the pulley is bad?

    Pulley??

    The drive/crankshaft pulley on my m1008 is very wobbly. Anyone had this problem? Could it just be loose and needs to be put back on and properly torqued, or is there a deeper issue i should be on the watch for? And are there any big problems that can be caused by this?

    lifting blocks

    ILLEGAL!!!! :deadhorse: Just installing new stock spring packs and zero-rates woudn't be too expensive. Cutting corners on driveline/suspension doesn't turn out for the better.

    M1008 fuel tank sending unit

    Maybe your local jobbers (Napa/Carquest/Checkers/Autozone/etc.) might have one.

    M1009 starts, stalls, starts, sounds like crap

    I forgot to add that part also. You have to bleed the air out of the fuel system after changing filters. Ik I have air in my lines...the fuel filter base is leaking, but, it's been way to fricken cold to fix it. Hopefully in the next week or two.

    Big Snow Day... woo hoo!

    RE: ice in eastern TN :funny: That's good. That much ice is about what forms on our cars after drive a block. LOL Here in the Milwaukee area we have gotten around 85 inches of snow this year (top ten snowiest winters for Milwaukee). There is no place to go with it anymore.

    M1009 starts, stalls, starts, sounds like crap

    Mine does that too. It teases you...kinda starts and runs for 4-5 seconds then dies and it's almost like it's "flooded" like a carbureted gas engine. I think it's just because it's cold. Try holding the accelerator down 1/2-3/4 down while cold starting (it says to do that on the visor starting...

    newbie on site

    I was just on GL and they have five or six 1009's in FL, GA, LA. (bidding starting in late March) bkwudz, look under "Utility Trucks" There is a pretty nice looking '84 1009 68k mi. at Warner Robins AFB, GA. but like AJMBLAZER said don't know if they run. www.craigslist.org might be a good...

    Pulling to right after lift

    Yeah I'd imagine bozor wouldn't drive it on roads too much. Here in WI your technically illegal if the tires are more than 4 inches larger than stock and the suspension is more than 5 inches above stock specs (9 inches total height). A year ago I had a really nice M1008 w/ 8inch lift and 37...

    Pulling to right after lift

    Well with the 44's I think you'd have highway worthy "gearing" lol.

    Pulling to right after lift

    Got any pics?? I have a 1008 and was thinking about putting a 2 in. lift. As for your issue. I agree with ajmblazer. A new steering stabilizer wouldn't be a bad idea either.

    Haha...no he didnt come up with that himself I've heard it before, but the old saying used to be "four-fifty air conditioning" for the old sedans back in the 60-70's. Oh and you don't need A/C...you have the little side vents by your feet...wear shorts, it works very well to cool you down up the...

    Insurance problems

    I don't think you should have a problem at the DMV. I just registered it as a multicolored Chevy K30 diesel. It was registered without issue. But your DMV friend should make it nice and easy too.

    Insurance problems

    I didnt have any problems with insurance or registration on mine. I live in Wisconsin and have Allstate. No questions asked. Although I got it last May.

    M1008 cranked fine and then stopped.

    But no matter what you use make sure you spray ONLY WHILE YOU ARE CRANKING. Hydro-locking your engine can be very bad!!

    Question on a EUC

    Yeah. Maybe you are screwed.

    Question on a EUC

    I'm sure they would find the cell phone user's address. And trace you that way.
