I guess two of the mounting points are broken. I might as well get a new one considering my welding skills. and if I have to take it off anyway. They new part at the dealer was only $28. I haven't figured out, is it the same as on the civilian trucks? If not I may have to take my...

Mine is still on pretty good, It is loose enough to let the belt hit the upper radiator hose and squeak whenever I give it throttle. I can't remember if gen2 is connected or not, sounds familiar. I've never dealt with saturn but it seems like they want a premium for some of their parts. Maybe...

My power steering pump bracket broke. I've read past posts that this is not uncommon, but I'm not sure if it is the same on the civilian blazers? If so, does it have to be from a diesel? Or maybe the parts store can get them. I'm also wondering if I can just weld it... Other than that, my...

Probably steeper than I should. My buddy's little cherokee went partway up, so i figured I could make it farther. I think the one I have is slightly bigger than the stock one but I never had the original. It turns out I only broke 3 or 4 bolts and maybe bent it a bit. I'll see if I can make...

Do you guys have clearence issues with the hitch under the pintle like that? I have a pintle ball hitch where the pintle goes and I keep bending it when I go up hills. Now I finally broke it after I tried to go up a really steep one and got hung up. I'm wondering if you could put the...

Depending on the part of the contry, $3,000 would be a good price. It takes a well informed person to see the value in an old cucv. Many people I know thought I got ripped off when I traded some items worth under 3k ish. But that's in Iowa. In the big states I bet you could get more.

Looks nice. How much lift do you have? And how many mpg did you get before the gears and tires?

Anybody know what this huge snow plow is? Just curious. It's an Oshkosh and the data plate says M-4-1700. It is for sale at the fed surplus for a mere $21,000.

I work part time at the Sam's club tire and battery center. The rule here is we can only put on the tire size that is on the door sticker. If you just bring the rims in, you can get whatever you want, up to 36''. I'm all for rules but I like big tires. So I will put on whatever tires the...

RE: What Neat, I'm glad it's something I could actually use. I never see the cans in the ones in use, just the bare plate.

Hey, Does anybody know exactly what the little thing opposiet of the spare tire does? I've been wondering. I asked a guy and he thought it had to deal with basic issue items. Just wondering...

Well, I got another battery, I guess they are 850cca not 790. It now starts with a flick of the key like it did in the summer, before all the problems. The lights have still not burned out. 4 days now. Magnus580, Do you know of any specific problems that occur with two different sized...

I was wondering about that, Thanks for the advice. I'll get one tomorrow.

I haven't taken the tray out, but I did get a new, bigger battery. Before, the front battery was only 550cca, and the rear was 700cca. So i took it in to the shop I work at, and the rear battery was bad. Now I have a 790cca front and 550cca rear. It cranks better, and my lights have been...

This is strange. After fixing another starter problem, I am back to the lights. I let it idle for around 15 minutes, with the lights and hazard flashers going and it worked just great. So I figure I'll take it on a test run, back out up my icy driveway and and go to put it in drive and my...

RE: m1009 battery zap Ok, I finally got it in and started it a few times and nothing happend that I can tell. I got a new wire from a car audio place but I got the wrong size connectors. I figured this out after it was snaked through. So I drilled it out with a wood bit and put it on nce and...

Mine had the same problem. I got mine with the tailgate all taken apart. and a new one. The old regulator was somewhat stripped. A new was was about $110 at LMC. Expensive, but it works.

Thanks for the info guys, I'll be sure to tighten everything the way it should be. Hopefully that will fix it, and I can drive the thing. Somemedic, luckily my batties are not melted, I'll check the distribution bars too. I've been studying the manuals and diagrams for months now. I picked...

RE: One more thing The nut was pretty backed off, welded now. Maybe i didn't get it on tight enough last time. We took it to the rebuilder and they said it was fried. Should get it back tonight. Is the loose connector the cause? I don't spose that it is the reason my lights aren't working...

It made the news in Des Moines, Iowa too.
