Yea it's gonna be a lot of work but it will hopefully pay off in the end haha. Yea I should have defined that better, just drive it to the beach in the summer, something cool to drive around during hot rod weekend here in ocean city and maybe a few other things like occasional towing of my boat...

Ok, ive got a rusted out m1008 with good axles sitting around so if i need to i can get the other needed parts for an axle swap, but it will probably just be a mostly stock 6.0 if i go the route

Ok, thanks. Yea i know they really cant be compared. It will just be basically a "weekend warrior"

Thanks. I was thinking a nv4500 would be better but i'm finding the sm465 trannys cheap. I forgot to mention at the beginning that it is not going to be a daily driver and it has the original 308 gears and 33 inch mud tires

Also, right now I'm not really concerned about the difficulty or price difference between the two

I have a 1985 m1009 with a bad motor and tranny and I was hoping to get some opinions from others on the forum. My options are a brand new in the crate military hummer 6.2 and a sm465 tranny or I can pick up a 4.8,5.3, or 6.0 ls with a 4l80e to swap in. Any opinions would be greatly appreciated...
