    Tomorrow morning I am going to recouver my new M1008, I rented a 16ft trailer, dual axle and will be towing all of this with a 2004 GMC 3/4 ton.

    Transmission Shift indicator CUCV

    Thanks for the info on LMC I will give them a call. Unfortunately there are no pick and pull's around here. If the vehicle is over 15 years it goes to the crusher.

    PTO driven generator weight

    I recently took one out of my M1031 and when I brought it to the scrap yard the generator welder weighted in about 900 lbs. Believe me it weights more than 200 lbs. The first picture is the new generator the 903C and then the old. I used the generator to run my MIG welder

    Litter Kit for the Mule

    Very interesting post, my wife was a medic and she has her own M1010, but the strechersis a great idea especially for reenactments. I think once the reenactments are finished it would be appropriate to have the Mule pick up the wound. Great crowd pleaser. Next projrct build the clamps for...

    Cab wincg remote control

    In the cab dash of the M816 wrecker on the left bottom near the door there is a data plate and a screw on cord plug that appears to be for the winch control. I can't seem to find any info on this plug. Does it control the front winch? and what does the controller look like?

    Snow plow......specifics.....

    :deadhorse:2cents The question you have to ask is will the mount fit? If the 1/2 ton has CV joints instead of a full axle the frame will not fit without serious modifications. Don't forget the the M1008 series had a full differential on the front end and this means different setups on the end...
