    Open Plane Intake

    My '84 M1028 does not have the open plane intake (see photo). Was the open plane intake a later refinement? Would it help my horsepower to change the current intake to an open plane intake? Thanks.

    Ram Air for CUCV?

    Well, that certainly answers that! Thanks. Do you think the Banks fresh air kit would help?

    shackle hitting frame

    Off Road Designs For my M1028, I bought a heavy-duty front shackle and bushing kit from Off Road Designs www.offroaddesign.com . Although I haven't installed it yet, I can say that the shackle is longer than stock to prevent "bottoming-out" and has grease-able bushings. The folks at ORD are...

    Bluegrass Driving Tour/ Bourbon trail

    Greenjeepster, I would be interested in such an endeavor. I live just north of you in Paris, and have just purchased an '84 M1028. However I can tell you that you will not have much luck obtaining the cooperation of the local horse farms to drive through their property. I am very involved...

    Hi everyone! New to the site and looking forward to participating. Just bought an '84 M1028 from Arizona with 12,000 miles and enjoying the discovery period. Rear brakes were shot so I installed new Discs from Off Road Designs at a lower cost than re-doing the existing drums. Plan to clean...
