    LA - Will pay $$$ to get M35A2 bobber axles rebuilt (bearings, boots, etc)

    There are a many things I can do on my own. However there are times when having a pro perform the work makes sense to me. I will not work on my brake system or tear down any of the major driveline components. Too important to leave to this shade tree mechanic. A pro will be able to do the work...

    Burst heater hose.

    I'm presently going through the cooling system on my M1009. It's becoming an example of the domino effect. Found a hole in the heater hose. Both hoses were lined with rust colored crud. Decided to flush out the heater core and found what looks like mud. Decided to flush the radiator. Opened...

    Engine in a Can

    I'm heading out to for French Camp tomorrow June 25th for pick up on Tuesday. Does anyone need anything looked at? I plan to take my camera (hopefully they'll let me use it).

    M1009 4" lift driveline vibration troubleshoot/new driveline components

    Ok here's the final result. Swapped out the lift blocks in the rear for a slightly shorter one and checked the tail shaft and diff yoke angles. Noise is gone and my M1009 looks to be level front to back. fat lady sings

    Engine in a Can

    Just got the EUC notification. Not bad, only a month and six days from the time it was sent to Battle Creek. I'll be calling them tomorrow to set up a pick up time for next Friday.

    M1009 4" lift driveline vibration troubleshoot/new driveline components

    Shims were added under the lift blocks to give the rear diff a different angle. It didn't seem to help. I'm probably going to replace the rear u-joint and see if things are better. If that fails I'll try something else.

    M1009 4" lift driveline vibration troubleshoot/new driveline components

    New U-joints it shall be. Hopefully this will fix the problem. If not, more of this aua.

    M1009 4" lift driveline vibration troubleshoot/new driveline components

    I’m in a similar situation as the OP. My M1009 has a horrible rear end roar at speeds above 65mph. A little back ground on my truck. I have had it converted from the stock 10 bolt axles to the Dana 60/Corp 14 bolt set up. Still has the stock 6.2/TH400/NP208 setup. The truck has about a four inch...

    Came across this gem in CL today

    Had to check out "Best of Craigslist". "I don't care who ya are, that's funny right there". There are some seriously creative people out there.

    Axle upgrade

    I didn't have the space or skill to do the swap on my own so I had to have it done. I can only tell you that it is a fantastic idea. The 4.10 gears really help out when pulling hills. Good luck.
