I would have to agree this assertion. Keeping the T-case in it's original location will help your front CV joint live twice as long.

I haven't read all the post on this thread, mainly since it is now something like "War and Peace", but I took out the brackets that would be used for holding the business end of the M16 rifles they sometimes carry around in the back corners of the cabs, then made a bracket with 2 holes that...

I lost a tag on my 16' trailer using that method - beware...

I'm having a similar problem with my CUCV M1008. I recently re-sealed the bottom end. New rear main, oil pan, front main seals were all done. While I had the pan off I noticed the timing chain was pretty loose, so I replaced it and the harmonic balancer along with the water pump. When I was...

Alright, stupid question time: Does this truck have 6-wheel drive, or is it only the rear four that have diffs? Like I said, even a bright shinny penny like me, being devestatingly hansome I might add with my fresh summer haircut that helps blend in the bald spot, sometimes doesn't know the...

yeah, I recognized it from way back when. It was a good movie, and that exactly what I sometimes fell like doing with these clowns who take my money but don't give me the merchandise until later...

I dunno, uhhhh, I'm thinking I have to agree with Mudstone on this 'un. Little or no income is probably not a good start when it comes to truck modifications. Especially in these lean times... I'd be happy just keeping the truck running properly.

Judging by your avatar, they should hurry the Frick up! That's about the same length of time I've been waiting. Whenever you get notified let us know, and I'll do the same if by some miracle it happens before your's.

Guess I need to take some extra underwear along on my next recovery (5-ton loaded with 5 tons). That is if I'm still alive when the EUC clears. Day 51 and counting...

Yeah - what he said...

I still have not received word back from event 4991. "EUC buried in Battle Creek" is what they need to have for my case. It has now been 50 days since it was sent in with no revisions needed. What a custerfluck...

Hey Private, you need to take it easy first of all. Second, I don't pimp out anything here. I mentioned Kert's products too in another thread, and if you want adjustability, that's the way to go. My wife would be the first one to tell you I would be screwed for weeks trying to decide which hole...

Here is the way I lifted mine, and if you can get your money back and wait to buy a rear spring kit, those 56" rear springs that are now on the back of your truck will install the same as the 52" ones (out of the rear of a M1009 blazer) I just put on my truck. The longer the front spring, the...

Excellent idea scrambled. The military wrap does go in the front. At least that is the way it is on all 5 of the CUCVs in my possession

I thought of that too, but my leafs are not in the pics, so I figured he might be asking about the missing pitman arm. I don't think I would want zero rates on the front. They are ok on the rear, but even though they are part of the spring pack, they still look like they would act as levers for...

I'm not trying to be a know-it-all, and most people who do know me will agree I'm not the absolute sharpest knife in the drawer, but in the instructions for the Transgo kit, Gil highly recommends to replace the steels with every rebuild even if they look ok. His reasoning is the TH400 is very...

I sent a scanned copy of my military ID card, and Matt gave me a price I couldn't refuse. I still haven't installed the rear shackle flips, but they are a perfect match to the front perches as far as answering the question: where's the beef? Matt let me have both the front and rear kits for $160...

Here's a preview:

I used to work for an AAMCO shop in Florida many moons ago, and they were the biggest rip-off artists I have seen. I knew I needed to quit when they charged a guy $70 for a trans service on his Honda 4-spd automatic. That equates to about $35 per quart of fluid, and since the only way you would...

Thanks for the info. Do you have a good source for the carter pump? Would 14 PSI be too much pressure?
