A header will not work for what I am doing. I need a manifold. Most manifolds are cast. I have not found any Manifold makers. There are lots of header people out there but no one that cast custom manifolds that I know of. Not something that is economical when having one made. when they cast...

thats really cool but probably puts up to much boost for my 6.2. So far I have found zero threads where someone was able to make a front cross over on a 6.2 when adding the turbo. I found a few threads where people tell you that you cannot use the 6.2 passenger side on the driverside because...

you are referring to the large green thing on the fire wall behind the engine. That is a resistor that you must bypass when trying to feed 12 volts to the glow plugs.

that is not a fuse. it is a resistor. 13.6 is the proper voltage. just bypass the resistor

When first posting I was under the impression we were talking about street legal 4x4's. If you were talking about a non street legal buggy then lock anything you want. If you want a better handling cucv in all situations, I think a selectable locker if any is required. What would probably be...

those are a lot taller than I thought. would be nice in a 1009. I however really like the armrest that I have on my burb seats. That is a very nice truck, did you ever sell your big wheels and tires. I would have liked to have them but worried about the law man around here. keep up the great...

not the best pics but I built a flip down plate holder for my 1009. I did not want to put any holes in anything visible to screw the plate to so I built a bracket that mounts to the top of the hitch mounting plate. I had a light under the bumper but changed it to two of the led lights that are...

awesome work, I like the Hummer seat adjusters. The adjusters in the 1009 are very sloppy and seam to be a lot taller. I have suburban seats on the 1009 bases and would like to replace the slides. I like those slides, do you have to buy the seat to get them. I don't like the hummer seats for...

Well I guess I will be the test subject. The manifold with shipping was $100. If it works it will be well spent. due to work it may be a while before I can actually do any work on the truck so don't expect any updates soon. Rich

The tops should not matter. He is trying to get you to test the glow plug card and the temp sensor that operates the glow plugs. If the truck will start, drive it until it is up to operating temp then park it and shut it off for 2 to 3 minutes. If it does not restart and the truck is still that...

My apologies for the sarcasm it was only inserted to point out that your first post was not very clear. The second post with the diagram was very nice and explained your point. Yes the rear tire will go a little faster but that is because it turns a tighter radius. I do not know anyone's...

when off road in the mud, I have to turn the front locker off in order to get the truck to turn some times. I am not going to get out of the truck in the mud in order to unlock a hub. snow and ice it is even worse. My eaton E locker was about $800.oo I went with it since I did not have the...

I am putting my banks turbo on my 1009 and I am looking to make a better cross over. I am trying to see if anyone has put a 6.2 hummer exhaust passenger side on the drivers side of their cucv The stock cucv passenger side can be flipped to drivers side for a front output on the drivers side...

I hope both the rear tires point in the same direction also. You really want a selectable locker up front. A Detroit is not selectable. You want to be able to turn it off. Does not matter the front and the rear both have the same side to side differential in speed when turning it is a...

cranking and not starting is fuel delivery problem. You probably have a bad shut off solenoid on the IP. When it is warm it will not engage. Try tapping on the top of the IP cover with a small wrench when it is not wanting to start. Sometimes they work fine when cold but stick once things...

Use just paint and one of the wax overcoats as an annual maintenance. An type of rhino liner or other surface liner will allow it to rust underneath and you will not know until it is to late. I could not save my first 1009 because the inside was rhino lined.

with two inches of lift you can run a 34 but not a 35 with no rub. the 35 will rub like a 33 does on stock truck. 35's will work on 2 inch lift but may rub slightly depending on tire width, the narrower the taller you can run. the above is true when using stock rims. You change the rim and...

If you are thinking of trying to keep it for parts, check the motor mounts and make sure bolts are not broken out of the block. The block is toast if this happens. If the frame is bent up front then it can cause damage at the mounts. does not look like many parts are worth keeping. Nothing...

What lazer reader are you using? Can you give me some info on that device? I need something to calibrate my Dakota digital module. I think it is close but I have no way to verify. I am considering buying a tiny tach just to use for calibration and keep on the shelf. Thanks Rich

needs a bumper sticker "follow me to the thunderdome" Mad Max would be proud.
