    Kinda got carried away..... M1028 rebuild

    great work on the fenders. I did the fronts on my 1009 the same way but the back fenders are still stock, I would like to do the rear part of the opening on the back fender also but it cant move much without messing up the fender well so I am on the fence about it. Not sure I want to change the...

    yes, gep was redesigned. just because it is a 506 block does not mean it was a gep. need to look at the forge markings to determine if it is a gep for sure. need to have the Navistar logo which is two triangles back to back for an old gep. The new gep motors are from a different forge.

    That rock auto motor is a standard 6.5. not an optimizer or gep. And yes it is most likely built with used parts. I don't think Leroy has any p400's left. I believe you can still get a new GEP

    glad to here you can get back to work on it. I am ready to see the engine back in the truck. I was going to change the fuel line on mine to be similar to yours, my fuel filter is in stock location. but I did not because it would be next to impossible to get it loose without removing the intake...

    If you have time to elaborate on the oil filter mod you are installing then please share. I have the valve cover with oil cap opening and I will have the motor out so it may be something I should consider. if it is in this post somewhere then please point it out. I have been through it (been...

    non-dot. I had recentered hummers and got rid of them because Harris and Galveston County they are tough on 4x4's and bead lock wheels. My truck was being admired by a DPS officer and he let me know that my wheels were not legal. We were at a gas station, he did not pull me over. I don't...

    those are a lot taller than I thought. would be nice in a 1009. I however really like the armrest that I have on my burb seats. That is a very nice truck, did you ever sell your big wheels and tires. I would have liked to have them but worried about the law man around here. keep up the great...

    awesome work, I like the Hummer seat adjusters. The adjusters in the 1009 are very sloppy and seam to be a lot taller. I have suburban seats on the 1009 bases and would like to replace the slides. I like those slides, do you have to buy the seat to get them. I don't like the hummer seats for...
