Rumrunner have you done anymore with the cabover bed idea? I'm toying with the idea of doing that but raising the roof of the box at the same time so it's flat on top. Since I don't have access to the equipment or skills to weld aluminum I've been researching using metal studs and tracking...

Any updates on this build? I could use the inspiration to get working on my camper conversion again...

I've ran into this same issue a few times over the years with my M1010. Two of those times it was due to a bad lift pump. When the replacement (from Napa) went bad about a year after installing it I said screw this and swapped over to an electric fuel pump. Not only did it fix the problem, it...

I have a friend with an M1010 with 6.2 turbo'd, 5spd (i believe a 4500 but not positive), 4.10s, on 35s. He says it'll cruise at 70-75 no problem. I've been considering the 4.10 swap for my M1010 (currently all stock), but I think I'm going to wait until after I lift it and put 35-38" tires to...

The bench/cooler lid is finished and the hinges will get installed tomorrow. The open spot at the passenger side rear will be a small kitchenette with a sink and counter top. I'm going to run a small tankless water heater, and install an outdoor shower with controls and hose storage accessible...

After owning my ambulance for 5yrs and using the original benches as a makeshift rv, I finally kicked my butt into high gear and started tackling a proper camper conversion project. About a month ago I finally started stripping the back box to get it ready for renovation. I removed the benches...

I'm hoping to tackle the bench removal again tomorrow. I do have most of the equipment and racks available, including the stretchers, heater, and AC. I've only held onto them in hopes of finding someone that needed them for a restoration. I'm up in the Akron area, if your friend is interested in...

All I currently need is that. I broke the outside rear door handle off, so I need the complete lock/inside and outside handles. Unless you can make me a good deal on a decent complete passenger side rear door, then I might be interested in just buying the whole thing.

Does anyone have experience with removing the benches from the box of an M1010? I got the driver side out without any problems, but the passenger side is giving me fits. I've drilled out every rivet I can find that looks like it's holding the bench but still no luck. The heater is removed, does...

Cucvrus do you still have the box from the M1010? I'm searching for the rear door handle/lock assembly if you're willing to part with it. I'm in Ohio.

Sorry, I didn't get one in my M1010 when I bought it.

I've searched for this subject but have failed to find the info I need. If these questions have been answered in a previous thread I'd be grateful for links. Over the last couple weeks I've been experiencing some issues in my M1010 with my starter (24v) not turning over every time, and with a...

Did the radio originally mount in the pass side footwell? Or was it in the rear box? Any chance you'd have a pic of the mount and I can look through the extra parts I have from my M1010.

My M1010 is my daily driver, and has been for about 4yrs now. It also does double duty as my offroad camper, and I've had it all over Ohio, Pa, West Virginia, and I'll be heading to Kentucky for Halloween weekend.

The Summit catalog is definitely being put to use, and luckily I'm only about 15-20min from their store which makes it easier. I've used the Cherry Bombs on a few cars and trucks years ago, but they were all gassers. I just don't know how they work on a diesel, the 6.2s in particular. I'm also...
