    insurance for m1008 in michigan

    I have progressive and I told them its a Chevy K30. Maybe the agent you were talking too was taught not to insure anything that starts with a M or sounds military. Just tell them K30 and then they will know its a pickup that wasnt modified. If its been lifted, dont tell them that then they will...

    Turn Signal/Wiper Switch question

    You can get the same part from lmctruck.com for half the costs of that from a chevy dealer. Make sure you buy a steering wheel puller also.

    Need help on a fuse that keeps blowing.

    I have one fuse that keeps blowing and I dont know what else that fuse feeds. I know its a fuse that handles the fuel guage. I dont know if the blackout lights also use this fuse. I can fill it up with gas and 20 minutes later it shows empty, blown fuse. I have to replace that fuse every 2-3...

    My stereo setup (Kind of ugly, but works)

    I would build a box that sits over the 4-wheel drive shift with enough opening so you can use it, Then build your box above it with a extra tray to store your cds, It will have to straddle both sides of the hump, but if your good with a jigsaw, wont be a problem

    M1008 vent window/frame

    Then again, they might have taken it from a differant vehicle and just told me that it came from a GMC. I was not allowed to go and take the part off myself.

    M1008 vent window/frame

    I bought one from a GMC truck and not even the bolt holes matched up.

    M1008 vent window/frame

    The curve of the window assemble doesnt match, its like it was made for a differant year vehicle and it leaves a gap between frame of door and the assemble itself.

    M1008 vent window/frame

    I am looking for a new or used vent window frame for my M1008. Does anyone know what year I should be looking at buying? I have a 85 M1008 but I think Chevy kept the M1008 the same as the 84 model. LMC Truck says they dont have the vent window assemble for 81-84. I have looked at junk yards...

    My stereo setup (Kind of ugly, but works)
