    m1009 occasional scary steering

    Check the frame for cracks at the steering box. I had the exact same symptoms when I needed a frame repair kit.

    Yeah but flat black wont get ya back. This is nothing that GM didnt offer. Its not like its 20x12s and slash cut 55 gallon drums for stacks. Don't worry, I have my bro-dozer dodge for that. If it doesnt work for the truck, I always have a can of paint. I understand why we like these trucks...

    Hey ray. I figured you'd be here. You know I love my trim. Also, I'm pretty sure we've sold parts to each other for your burb. Lol small world. I'd love to swap but texas is an awfully large small world. I got some local trucks to pick from. Thank you though. I got a good deal on this one out...

    Hey ray. Got a good deal on this one. Runs AND drives. Not my usual purchase criteria. It is rusty as **** though.

    Exactly. what I'm wondering is why has it seemingly not been done. To me it's no different than adding an overdrive or nice seats. Seems like a cucv gets kept mostly stock. I can only find one photo of a 1008 with a civvy grille. I'd like to see what it might look like.

    This may be considered ban worthy, but id like to add some chrome to the 1008. Truck will stay carc 383 for the most part. In particular I want to do a core support swap with the stacked dual headlights. Grille surround with the chrome trim and add the gold bowtie with keeping the cucv grille...

    Leaf spring eye bolts ???

    Take one out. I'm pretty sure you want 9/16 x7". Trim the excess. Get some sort of locking nut. Stover or nylock. Prefer stover because of heat in the areas. Front shackles are 7/16". Same trim to fit for the shoulder.
