I just remembered that a very wise man told me that the u-joints/yokes need to be +/- 5 degrees of the same plane....it's not important that the rear yoke point up toward the transfer, but rather they are parallel! If at all possible of course:razz:

you can buy blinker fluid....it's next to the muffler bearings

lockers The air lockers seem to have a lot of failures with air supply The electric lockers seem to have a lot of failures with wires.... i'll stick to my posi's

They use a chemical instead, like here in north idaho.....the name of it escapes me right now Salt is very hard on the roads and the chemical is very hard on our cars/paint......we do have good roads though!

missed that one didn't I, lol. I've taken a ton out, 350/400, but never have I seen 6 bolts....learn somethin' new everyday;-)

i'll bet that 35's/4-inch would fit the bill

LSD, what is this, the 70's uncommon to find them in any vehicle, so i've read

I'll try checking out where my truck came from/84 1008...no rust at all, only 2 dents (small), but mine could be a "fluke".

everything i've read says that it's not common....pop the cover if you can, if your looking to buy a truck hoping it has a trac loc then you can try locking/unlocking hubs and turning the front shaft while preventing one axle joint from spinning with a bar....a worn out unit might appear to be...

when I bought my 84 1008, the reciept for alt belts from napa was still in a bag on the floor board of the truck. The reciept date was about 30 days prior... (old belts in bag) I dont know if they were economy or napa gold but they are already ready for replacement, thier stretched* (about 60...

Junkyard??

gearz first things first, 5.13 is the tallest recommended gear for the dana 60...because of small pinion/weekness issues, although it's not an issue with the 14 bolt. Any gear vendor has them, although they may not be listed. Otherwise, to clear 38/14.5/16 toyo m/t's you need more than...

aren't tranny's fun! I forgot to ask you to check for a presence of vaccuum at the modulator...a pin hole in your vaccuum line can make the tranny want to use the gov. gear to shift, but because there's some vaccuum it shifts before it winds all the way up. I'm trying to use...

I call mine the 1 ton. My buddy has a 1009 he calls the army blazer.

the only other thing not mentioned was condition of rear brakes...if you forget to take e-brake off a few times and had worn shoes to begin with than this is a possible scenario....the rear brakes are directly rosponsible for a "full" pedal:-D

I wonder if 1 or more of the 3 bolts connecting to the torque conv. could have come loose and started rubbing....just a shot in the dark, but it is an easier fix:!:

I need tires Can you direct me to where I can get some 37" humvee tires like yours? Thier not for 1008, i'll use them on my mud truck. Any how I also might try the 285's for 1008....they seem to be perfect, now I just need to find them!:-D
