Looks good! I have been looking for an exploded view of the hub assembly to design my own disc brake set up. The only one I have found though is a hub assembly in the TM's that is a cross section instead of an exploded parts assembly view. I also researched rotors and Ifound ones from a ford 700...

Jersyhick that rig is awesome!! Thank you for the gracious photos and tidbits of info I to dream of making a crew cab for my M135. Have to to fit the family all five of us! I keep buggin the wife and saying we need another kid, then have to make my rig a suburban! Lol! Do to finances right now...

Sorry no updates. I am working my butt of to try and not lose the farm. Wife sold all the cows and we are closing our business. Working like a mad man to make a buck. I don't have time for the truck so it has been listed for sale. Of course with no real interest. Just the usual tire kickers...

I shall have to remember this for the day I get to trying to plumb my tank for fuel. I will probably have to find a different pump for diesel though.

Welcome nineyards!! Nice rig!! There are lots of great guys and gals on this site that can help guild you through your build. I unfortunately am not one! Hehehehe! Oh man! Ykdave, To bad you weren't in burns lake in august early september this year. I has up that way for my business. I woulda...

Eaton 9 speed ooooooooooh! I like! Still searching for my tranny!

How's the Gunfreak Grill Glyde system coming!! How many blackout lights are on a stock M135/211? I have the two above my headlights one on the drivers fender, then I also have six ( I think) rolling around that were sitting on the floor board of the truck when I bought it. As far as I remeber...

Man is that a tight looking truck and camper conversion! Call me weird but I like some gloss in my paint. Otherwise it just fades in the background. Got to make the truck have that pop for added look at that and what he did there to that truck effect! I am super curious about how the four door...

Nice find!!! You will have lots of fun fixing Tonka up! As others have said once the engine is fixed so she starts and runs with out fight, do the brakes! I plan on getting my trucks motor running, god willing, in the yard and then rebuilding the brake system before even moving the truck out of...

Thanks for the prayers Gunfreak! Must have worked. I didn't win the lottery but I found some work for a couple months running a D8 dozer. Got hired to fill in the local dump and clear an area for a new one, then repeat in the next town. Might be enough to buy me some time and not have to scrap...

There is always a demand for parts! These trucks are getting harder and harder to find much less get parts for. I personaly would buy the cab to make mine a crewcab. The axles are popular with monster mud boggers. These are rough prices I have found for parts on the internet. Axles: 300 ish...

The tribute to your family and friends is awesome! Can't wait to see the pics of the valve cover all painted up! Any more thoughs on stencils?? I kinda dig Gunfreaks big maple leaf on the door thing. Eager to see what you end up doin!

O boy O boy!!! I can't wait to see the finished product!! I sure hope it works out as well as I imagine. Looking forward to the pics and the final assesment during your maiden voyage! If you are happy with the set up in the end call it the Gunfreak Grill Glide System!

I wanna finish my motor mounts for my 5.9L!!! Gotta weld them yet. Only worried about actually doing it cuz in order to bolt the motor down after making the mounts I have to cut the fire wall to allow room for the motor to move back so that the radiator will fit. I don't want to cut the truck...

Ok try this again since I seem to be getting kicked out when I try to post. Everything looks great man!! Happy to hear that you are getting to know your father! As for the grill/rad mounts this is what I was thinking. My hardware is rusted to failure point. Soooo....... I was plannimng on using...

To bad you don't have a M135. 4 less tires for weight. Drop an axle. Lose the bed. Bob the truck. Do a modern drive train swap with a lighter engine and tranny! Those are your best options for losing some weight. You could single out your M211 but be prepared to dish some good coin for rims to...

Well seems I don't have access to post on the clasifieds. Gonna keep it short and sweet then. Moderators feel free to delete if you deem necessary! Going broke. Pm me if you are interested in my M135. My loss your gain. This sucks!!! Hopin for a miracle!

Ok. Sit rep! I haven't gotten much response from gear manufatures out this way. Out of the twenty or so I have contacted only a half of a dozen have told me they either don't do it or won't touch it with a ten foot pool due to liabilities since it will be an on road use application. I have also...

Call me crazy but I love the look of the M211 with the big *** grin grill and civy chev hood with eyeball headlights look!!! Imagine some rich a** cutting you off on the road only to be held up at the next light. Then picture said rich *** in his shiny sport car crapping his pants as he looks in...

I think it looks kinda cool! Brings to mind those Argo 6x6 amphibious things. Slam on some 395's or 1600s if your gonna go all out on it and lift it and push all axles together and make the rear counter steer so you could pull some wicked donuts! Can't remember the name of the APC but that would...
