Welcome to the site. Be careful though, the MV world is highly addictive and there is no known cure. If you need parts you should just watch GL and pick up a couple cheap ones to strip for their working parts.
You need to get that a1 out in the woods where it belongs. When I finally get mine, I want to get it back into motor pool condition but not so nice that I wouldn't take it on the trails.
I am looking at flat towing a M38a1 350 miles. I do not believe it has lockout hubs, would it be ok to tow it at neutral if I was just doing 55 on the way back? What kind of damage could be done if the drive shaft is not dropped?
I bought mine from a private seller. I just lived on craigslist for a few months until a good deal came up and when it came time to sell my '09 I was able to make some money on it.
I would give your vacuum lines a good look over before you leave and fix the problem. I would drive the whole way, western canada has some of the most beautiful scenery in the world. You will also need a block heater and battery heater for sure when you get up there.
Keep it 24v, it should help you when you go to sell it. I know there are a lot of guys (myself included) that would pay more money for a truck that has the original 24v system.
I would think so but I am far from an expert. Also I like how the data tag recommends gas with a minimum octane rating of 72; talk about setting the bar low.
