I just wanted to introduce my self. My name is ian and I just bought a M1009 project.

It has no motor or transmission but did come with the 208 transfercase that I will run for a while. All of the resistors, relays and wiring accociated with the morot is gone as well.

It does have a D60 front and a 14FF with detroit locker in the rear. It has the 52" spring swap on the front with some home made shackels and 56" springs in the rear with 37" military tires on it now.It has a other than stock bumper that I was hoping someone could help me identify.With the slotted holes it doesnt look like a home made bumper. I want to go back to a stock bumper and grill guard. I could probably salvage this grill guard if i had too but it would be nice to find one.

The PO also thought he was a welder and welded a support brace for the steering box. This will obviously need to be addressed, As a former Navy welder these welds are un acceptable.

The current plan is to put an 8.1 big block in it (since most of the diesel stuff is gone) and switch it over to manual. I have an SM465 in the garage and the 208 will go behind that. The rear and front ends will both be rebuilt with new bearings and seals and i'll probably go to a smaller 35" tire.

There is a little bit of rust on the body but nothing major so that will get addressed as well.
I was wondering if someone could tell me what these plugs are too? I imagine they are to support the original motor
