OK. What is a GEP pan and what advantage does that have over a stock CUCV pan? I have both HMMWV pans and CUCV pans and have been putting CUCV pans on CUCV engines and HMMWV pans on HMMWV engines that I install in LKQ vehicles. Just wondered if I was missing some advantage. Also the nuts and...

They were black plastic when new. They are just faded to yellow from 30 + years of sun exposure.

These are the push pin rivets I used to put i the fender holes on my rebuilds. They are about as close as I could find to the OEM style rivets. I also like the black smash rivets. I have NO pictures of them but they are put in the hole and a heel dolly or hammer is put on the inside and the...

I would put some scaffold up with ladders and paint it from the sides. i would recommend an acid wash primer to stop that rust and the a sanding primer to fill the pits. Then after you sand it use an epoxy sealer after I sanded the primer smooth and go at it from there. What paint are you using...

Sir just a word of caution. Carefully tow that vehicle with the tow bar and no front bumper. You can and will bend the frame horns if you go any distance. I have a center section of a bumper that I use to add strength to the frame. I know first hand how weak the front frame horns are without a...

Cool beans. I have a great 1987 1/2 ton Chevrolet 4 X 4 pick up I am going to be making a transformation out of. I want it to be just as handy as an M1008 without the screaming gears on the highway. i have everything I need but time is always a constraint. I sold the truck twice and received...
