I'll check for the part number and actual cost. The core was not real expensive - less than 30 bucks as I recall. I told the parts clerk I needed a heater core for a 1986 K-30 with no A/C, to take his time and check around that I did not want the thin alum. one. When I returned in a couple days...

Removed my thin aluminum heater core and replaced with a much thicker heavier duty copper heater core from NAPA. Took about 2 hrs. Checked all duct work for obstructions etc. It now produces enough heat to stay warm on a 20 degree day in Il.

You're Halftrack is really cool!! Nice job!

I replaced mine with the Bilstein shocks.

I like that antenna! Could you give a quick tutorial on making one?

I like the way you cleaned up the battery areas!

I can't find anything cheap anymore! The new ball joints and Bilsteins were worth it though, front end handles like new or maybe better. Thanks for the compliment, my place is more work than that 1009, taking care of calves, horses and all that goes with it.

New ball joints on front end with new Bilstein shock absorbers.

I just took my test for Technician class yesterday and passed, I should have my call sign this week. I was thinking of purchasing an MX 6707 antenna base and a AS 1729 antenna to mount on my M1009. I know that an RT 524 will work with this but I was wondering if it would be better to get a more...

That looks like a really nice set up!

This looks like a good idea, I'm going to order the insulation for mine.
