There are bench seat covers NOS for sale here in the classifieds.

A lot of thought in the fabrication of that mount. I like it.

I run 37" x 16.50 surplus radials and gain a decent drop in RPMs over stock tires with the GV unit. At 70mph I'm at 2350 rpm. My GV has been flawless for about 25,000 miles . Great setup.

http://www.steelsoldiers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=425069&d=1367033179 RT 246 and R 442 in M1028 . Takes up a little bed space but the Humvee tray worked out quite well. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=425065&d=1367033045...

Can't go wrong with the TinyTach. Be sure to paint the transducer after install. Great unit and super easy install. Really nice looking truck also.

Keep the top and sides. They really make the trailer multi - purpose. I love mine and have hauled everything in it. I'd leave it as is if I were you. The surge brakes are great. It is a well designed trailer. The covers are getting hard to find in good shape. Also FYI I only had a Bill of Sale...

Weak battery or corroded battery connections or both. If a 6 volt sits for a while without a charge it won't hold a quick charge. At least that's how my ' 44 GPW is. Check the water level and give it a long charge on a shop charger and check it with a hydrometer .

How long does the cable need to be ? I might have a spare.

You'd most likely have to notch the frame rails. My Warn 12,000 was about a 1/2 " too wide , but the HF Badlands fit with room to spare. Easy install with the universal mounting plate from HF. I borrowed the idea from member Shankemdeep.

This is how I mounted mine.

Buy a take off spring pack from Boyce Equipment, Memphis Equipment or TNJ Murray. That's what I did. Ask for a hand picked unit with as little rust as possible. Broken springs are common on these rigs. Of course you could rebuild yours, but there are complete replacements available . I paid 200...

What transfer case do you have? The coupler for a NP 208 vs 205 are different. If I recall, the shaft on my install moved in when I separated the stock housing and I had to pull it back out. That might be your problem. I believe I had to shim 11 thousandths . Ok now I see you have a 208 housing...

Side roads 45 mph or less no problem. If there are any grades expect slow speed . Freeway- forget it.

I've always wanted to drive a 5ton on fire roads. Great pics. Thanks!

Check all your grounds at the turn signal assemblies front and rear ,and clean same and all bulb contacts, then apply a little dielectric grease to the sockets . I doubt it is in the switch. I had the exact same problem and this was the fix. Good luck. Oh also disconnect your batteries first.

I run 2310 rpm at 70 mph with my GV OD.

Go for it . Sure there is a chance of BS in any sale, but if the truck is pretty stock and runs and stops fine I would do it. 129 miles is not that far. I bought my 1028 on EBay from a LA county deputy sheriff . It was 450 miles back home at 55 MPH without a hiccup ! But the seller was honest...

Looks good ! Keep the pics coming!

My advice to you is, SEARCH this site regarding this subject. Not being a wisea*# , but this will help you make a calculated decision . Personally, I'd keep the 6.2 if it is a proven runner. The m1009 with it's gearing makes the 6.2 a highway truck. My 1028 with Gear Vendor is my go anywhere...
