    1008 is getting lighter

    I didn't weigh it of course, but I'd guess the seats are about 70-80 lbs a side and the shelving was about the same. Probably about 200 to 240 lbs total would be my guess. The truck looks smaller to me without the seats/racks on it. Now I have room to put one of my four wheelers in it!:grin:

    1008 is getting lighter

    It was pretty easy really. The radio rack has a lip on the rear side that has 3 or four bolts/screws in it. You unscrew the power cord from the power distribution box that is fastened onto the rack and then wiggle the rack out. The power cord must come out from the front and up thru the bed...

    Electrical disturbance....help!

    I just went thru a similar run with my 1008. Intermittent electrical gremlins are hard to fix. Mine turned out to be (I hope!) the brown wire (That had been changed to black.) in the plastic connector of the driver's side alt. I cleaned this connection twice before going spastic on it the third...

    Heater blower motor

    Nope as CARNAC said,"Not even close"! The NAPA number is 655-1076. I think I paid $20 with tax. It sure blows more air now. And with a new thermostat, it will run you out of the cab!;-)

    M1009 Recovery in Jeff City, MO

    Nice buy. And I could see perfectly well thru that fence. ;-) With the prices I am hearing, my $540 1008 was a pretty good buy. I don't mind telling the price, 'cause I'm not planning on selling!:-D And at Ft Mead and Drexel Gardens/Stout Field I had that much fun just drooling over the stuff I...

    My introduction, and a question

    Oh, shiny paint. :-D That looks like a good clean body. Since it's not stock anyways, get a 700R4 and make it rattle slower!

    M1008 alternator issues, and other stuff

    In my thread that is titled "My 1008 is making me go bald", I discussed the same problem that you have. And like you my wiring had been "adjusted" by someone so the TM didn't do me much good. Sorry Devilman, but the TMs don't actually cover everything IMHO. Anyways I HAD taken all the...

    U.S. to supply Lebanon with tanks in 09

    I wonder WHERE they have these stored? And I wonder if they have an extra? That would make a GREAT yard ornament!:-D
