    Need Engine oil cooler lines

    I'll look for the part numbers, they are the same ones as the civvy trucks!! They are a #@$@ to get into place, you'll want a second person. Dealer here in michigan was able to get them from his warehouse, have the part counter do a national parts lookup.

    glow plugs

    you need to test the resistance from the spade connector to the threads of the GP, I cant remember how many ohms of resistance is good, but I think its somewhere around 50 or lower.

    Clare MI swap meet

    I may have one more six-lug rim left, I'll check. Also I have a full set of m1008 rims that I don't need, anybody need 'em?

    M1008 Fuel Mileage (vs 1009)

    on a side note-- the truck seems to ride better with the spacers on, I am guessing in part due to the fact that my track width is wider and a little due to the fact that the aluminium probably has a little "give".

    M1008 Fuel Mileage (vs 1009)

    I have the wheel spacers on, hoping to maybe get a set of rims this weekend in Clare. I had to take a hammer and tap back the lip of the front fenders about a 1/4" to avoid rubbing with the suspension compressed and turning.

    Need Help, Buying a CUCV

    My engine has an exempt sticker on the driver's side valve cover. ( If I remember correctly, its yellow) If that one is intact, I see no reason to have the other one.

    Wire Numbers?

    There are also the in-line fuse holders, splice them in place of the fusible link and then just carry a few more regular fuses.

    Need Help, Buying a CUCV

    Stick with the np205. If you are looking for more highway speed, then you migh consider putting in a 700r4 trans, you can get an adapter to mate the t-case to it. They hold up fine as long as they are built to take the abuse, I think 1200 is about what I have seen them go for on ebay (new of...

    I'm Back, With A Blown Brake line ???

    anyways, it should be a close fit on the rear lines ( could always get slightly longer flex lines if they are a little short.

    I'm Back, With A Blown Brake line ???

    If its got a bar rear line, you just pinch it off with a pair of vise-grips and go straight to the shop. I drove my s-10 with a split rear line 15 miles to the shop, you just use the trans to slow you down and go easy on the brakes.

    wheel spacers

    you could, but its easier to center the rims on the 9/16" studs, I just got a set and put them on my truck yesterday. Are you going up to the Claire meet? I'll have my truck there. get the "early chevy" spacers. mine were $230 shipped to the door (all 4 and lug nuts)
