I travel a lot toClumbus and yes even AL on my Motorcycle. lots of buddies down that way... GA ain't that bad, been worse places...

welcome, looks like GA has several folks, I'm fairly new here myself. I think if I had some land I'd have a Deuce or two myself, but will just stick with my 1009 for now..

hmmm,, sounds liek I should just leave this one close to stock then keep my eyes open for a 1008

these tires and rims are the rigth price and look good, but I don't think they would be able to turn without at least a 4-6 inch lift and the size would probably need a gear ratio change my question is, will the axles hold up? Its not going to eba an extreme 4x4, just driven in the...

the mechanic seemed to think that it was still good, that I could buy a crank and rebuild the lower end... BUT for the amount that woudl have cost, and payign somebody to pull the motor out etc, easier and quicker to swap in another motor. I may attempt to rebuild this motor, and maybe...

I plan on assembling a bag of stuff for this vehicle once I get mine running, zip ties, duct tape, hose clamps, spare belts assorted bolts and nuts, JB weld, vise grips etc.. you never know, I'm sure most of us have some non CUCV related broke down and rigged it fixes, hope to keep mine...

drove to Charlote and back, retieved the motor and dropped it off at the mechanics.. hopefully have a running truck soon!!! Oh and I will probably have some leftover parts, intake manifold, basically almost an entire engine minus a crankshaft ;-)

well thats good to know, for starters I just want the thing to run, will probably get some cheap tires that are stock or near to it, then after given it a long period of thought maybe go bigger... I do realize that if I go to a much larger tire a regear will be almost mandatory with the...

well my thoughts are to go 32-33 on it with just a small lift ( 2-4) for now make sure the rest of the truck gets in good reliable workign order.. Maybe in the future, the humvee 37's taller lift and the banks ( with a regear as well) lots of good suggestions and pics... any...

yep, I spoke before searcing, found several threads with that suggestion, 32-33

anyone know the biggest tire I can safely fit on a stock height one with stock rims? the stock tires are pretty small, I had 265's on my 2wd ford, and 285's on the 4x4 stock height one I had the truck just looks funny with the smaller stock size tires.

well the turbo falls into the Optional late if I think I need it. and the humvee tires come mounted on rims that fit Military Tires the turbo would be a banks sidewinder aftermarket kit If I go with a 4-6 inch lift I can fit the bigger tires, Or I may just see what I can buy...

on my notebook when I was thinking the 37" hummvee tires, I just budgeted for a gear swap.. now I'm not so sure, keep thinking not go so big on the tires and lift, keep it simple, just enough I have plenty of time to think about it...

not sure if blown is the correct term.. when it wouldn't start, the mechanic and I started checkign things, like timing chain, glowplug voltage etc.. the mechanic ( who had been workign on the truck for the owner) kept saying it was running great then blam fubar. ( I wonder if GA would let...

I'm basically making a to do list, and I have 6 months of time to think about what to do when I get back. the turbo is a wishful thinking maybe, I have to drive the truck some to see if I want more power. I will probably do a 4 inch lift and a decent size tire package, that way it will stay...

Ok folks, been pouring over the forums and reading as much data as possible. I just purchased a M1009 for next to nothing ( probably due to the blown crankshaft) But, Ive sourced a replacement engine and wil soon have it runnign again. I have some plans, I don't want to pretty the...

looks like I'll be heading to Charlotte... I have about 30 days to get this thing running and then I get to park if for 6 months

heck yeah, thats a good pice and within driving distance, PLEASE get me contact details asap

I think after I sort my engine out, I will need some of those rims and tires, and of course a 6 inch lift to clear them ( wow that added up fast) oh well still cheaper then buying a new truck...
