Been running 36" Humvee tires for over 8 years on this truck.
Been running 285/75-16's, plowin' & wood haulin' for years with this one.
I've had M880's around for over a dozen years & have never had a wheel bearing failure on the D44 fronts. or any other axle component failure.
Now I have...
I have used 16" Ford rims, IIRC they were a little wider than the dodge 16" steelies.
The center hole from the Chevy's is too small @ 4-3/4, Need 4-7/8 to clear the rear hub.
about 7 years on Gillespie enamel paint from Rapco Parts.
There are differences between the cargo covers,(M880 / M1008) they can be made to work with minor modifications
when paint was new
None came with them but I have seen a couple M882/M884's with them added, one was sticking out the passenger side fender. :rolleyes: If one was added it would be a "one way" used to jump others or possibly to power the radios if it's batteries were drained.
The M880 did not have the 28v gen or the extra battery tray.
Where the M882 was a radio truck and had the 28v gen.
The 24v system on the M882 was for radio only, some may have had a slave cable port added at some point.
