Thanks for all the replies! I was trying to look at the Hummer section of this web site to see if anyone had one of these installed but no luck. We are having a lot of rain here in West Melbourne this evening and my BellSouth.net fast access internet service does not work during periods of any...

I was digging around in the M1008A1 that I just got recently and found this inside the cab. It appears to hold something because it is spring loaded and built as solid as a rock.

RE: well the beast got her first bit of battle damage yester If you can somehow get behind the panel and use large washers and nuts it would be and easy fix. One way to "cheat" is to use pieces of coathanger which you would tack weld to each nut and washer, then feed it into the access hole...

I could use the bridge sign. Mine is missing the tope portion with the "C" on it.

Thanks for the info! I appreciate the information about the correct components to use for the smaller axles. I have four K5s at my disposal for parts right now so I may just do everything over again when time allows. Scrap prices are so high at the present time that I am planning on...

Thanks to Craig's List I managed to obtain another M1008A1 in trade for one of my 89 K5 Blazers with a 350TBI. Part of the arrangement was for him (Robert) to get the axles and I would keep the rest which was fine for me. He brought the CUCV over from Brooksville Florida on a 5th wheel...

Are you using a 700R4 behind a 6.2 in your M1008? I have one that I pulled out of an 86 K5 that was rebuilt but it is from a 350 TBI motor - not diesel. What has to be done to make the swap? I am also curious to know if it does anything to improve the top speed and fuel economy. Al Broadbent...

congrats on the great win! I like all the stuff that you got with the truck! I am amazed that the jack and all of the components with it are still in the truck! I bought my M1008A1 from a guy in Carmel New York and have never regretted paying $3600 for it (plus driving it home which was...

Has anyone ever replaced the boot that covers the piston shaft for their Air O Matic power steering system? Before I break something trying to install the new boot I figured I would ask whether the long rod that does all the pushing and pulling is threaded where it hooks into the drop link...

I emailed the GL folks today with the following: I live near Patrick AFB and Cape Canaveral Air Station and have noticed that hardly anything is being offered at the Canaveral Air Station location anymore. My guess is that you will probably close this location. I miss the old Patrick AFB GL...

Photos of jack use and placement I just looked at my jack instructions behind the seat of my M1008A1 and the decal looks like new. I also realized that instructions for several of the CUCVs were all in one so here are a few photos of the decal. I printed out these photos for inclusion in a...

Bennett Auto Supply has them here in Melbourne Florida

Harness on Ebay right now I have bought a lot of items from this guy. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=014&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&viewitem=&item=330240406443&rd=1

This is interesting and reasonable. I live very close to this area but don't want any more big MVs. Perhaps another SS member might want to see what can be bought for $4K: http://southernairboat.com/classifieds/showproduct.php/product/2269/cat/503/date/1203461152

Perfect 350 TBI setup for your M1009 It's a shame you live so far away from Florida because I have just what you need; an 89 K5 Blazer with an ass-kicking 350 TBI and rebuilt 700R4 transmission. I just put a new Stewart Warner fuel pump in the gas tank which is another thing you will need if...

License equirements Devilman, thanks for that information. I don't remember when I upgraded my license to the 'D' rating but it is possible that the laws changed since then. After taking the test at the Division of Drivers Licenses in Melbourne Florida, I could not see a whole lot of useful...

License for driving a heavy vehicle in Florida Back to the license requirement to drive a Deuce here in Florida. I was first informed about the requirement to have a special certification (Class D) on my drivers license to operate my M35 by a neighbor who used to be a supervisor at the Drivers...

Try Matt up in the panhandle of Florida. (954) 812- 5989. He parts out lots of M35s and has practically anything you might want. He sells on Ebay also and used to go under the name of Green Gen Army Surplus Depot. Very fair and honest.

RE: Re: RE: Greetings from Florida Steve, you are welcome to come by sometime at your convenience but do call me in advance so I can plan the time. I put my truck on an interesting airboat web site - those people seem to have money to buy the big toys so I advertised there to test the water...

Welcome to the site! Well Steve, I live on the East Coast of Florida inbetween Jacksonville and Miami. If you want to buy a Deuce, there are several that are being auctioned off right now at Cape Canaveral Air Force Staion through the Govliquidation web site. If you are going to buy one, I...
