    What insureance do you have on your m1008 0r m1009?

    Did they personally look at them.....how did they set a value for them for replacement? I am under the impression that book value for a 1009 would be about $1000(extremely low), even though we know thier worth more! I have heard older vehicles need to be appraised, was yours?:-D btw, same ?'s...

    Towing M1008 WITH M1009

    The wheel base presents alot more of a problem than the weight in my opinion. I think it's fair to say that 50% of mv vehicles have less than PERFECT brakes, couple that with short wheel base, and maybe slightly oversize tires.....disaster is just around the corner. I do think it's reasonable to...

    Want to see pics of gov. locker in CUCV's

    I believe they are the same, but pinion shaft/inside yoke diamater is larger in the rear... I've pulled a few apart but not more than 4 or 5 so I cant say if the pinion shaft thing is consistent...:-D

    A few 1 1/4 ton truck questions

    Hey, gonna be a nice truck. It sounds like your gonna pump up the power with stuff you have laying around so I would bet if you keep stock tires and dont plan on towing around to many semi's you could go with 3.42's if thats what is availible. Better mileage than 3.73's if your running the...

    Diff drain plug

    Thought I would share some info.....I've been wanting to get a set of diff covers for the 1008 that had drain plugs in them. After checking out a few options I concluded that thier a little wimpy compared to the heavy duty ones that the truck comes with. After getting a P/A (12.00) for a simple...

    starter/flywheel issues

    I really like 2 guage, and because I went to civy batt trays I used 2 guage welding lead to cross the core support, it's easier for juice to flow in my opinion.:-D
