I keep seeing this posted and it reminds how badly mine need to be done... :oops:

Doubtful the dealer carries them, so you'll have to find them on the used market. Sent you a PM.

Good call, Dave! Didn't even notice that until you mentioned it, that's a 14-bolt free-floater for sure.

Looks like an M1008 with a rear axle swap... Has potential, though.

This sounds correct. No continuity to the mount is what you want.

There are several tire size calculators on the internet to help compare sizes, I prefer this one here. Should help with comparing sizes very quickly to see their differences. The standard sizes follow the same convention as the metric sizes: 37x12.5x16 = 37" diameter, 12.5" tread width, and a...

Good post. I printed out that very same page after trying to differentiate suspension part numbers for the M1028 versus the M1028A2/A3.

+1 That is sweet looking rig, Phil, excellent purchase!

What is it and why did it smoke? ^--- Post 18 for photos This is the story of my CUCV 12v glow plug conversion ^--- Excellent photos/writeup

1) I wouldn't go any bigger than a 285/75-16 on the stock wheels, roughly 33" tall and 11-1/2" wide. 2) The wider wheels will only be necessary if you go to a significantly wider tire. If you're looking for something taller than a 33" tire, then I would suggest aftermarket wheels that will...

I've noticed the same thing as Brian, same fluid throughout the driveline. Makes sense, as it eliminates any possibility of two different viscosities mixing and also simplifies materials requirements for servicing.

Mine is more of a "snap", but it sounds so heavy-duty, I love it. More proof (in the pudding) that the AC40 relay is junk... Glad everything worked out for you! [thumbzup]

Preview, preview, preview... 8) The good news is that at bare minimum you'll have rebuildable cores for the big-ticket items.

Unfortunately, your item at Holloman was too large and I've no trailer to help with... :-( I'm along the east end of Highway 60 if you need roadside help, though!

My truck was missing a lot of parts, courtesy of one of the previous owners (a member here on the forum)..... So it made sense for me to buy another truck to get what I needed.

D'oh... Can I blame dyslexia? :doh:

This is how I had to do mine last week, didn't have the correct size socket for the impact. Good luck!

Those large bolts on the sway bar should be torqued to 320-lb/ft, which makes them a bear to remove even when not rusty. If you can get ahold of a pneumatic impact gun, that would be best. Meanwhile, spray it down with a lot of penetrating oil, and try applying heat.
