    3/4 ton wheel and trim rings with 1 ton CUCV axles?

    The CUCV uses 9/16 studs (1 ton) and the 1991 and up 1 tons (1988 and up 3/4 tons) use 14MM studs. The bolt pattern is the same up to 2011 so the rims will swap but not the lug nuts. If you google 9/16 threaded Gm lug nuts. They are out there. about 1$ each off ebay.

    Stanadyne FM100 fuel management system upgrade

    If the liquid stuff dissolve it would not seal would it? The paste type works well if you do not over use it. Same as the tape, if you do not over wrap it and wrap it correctly you are fine. How tape got a bad wrap is FNG's who have no clue on what direction and how much to wrap. Teflon is...

    cucv won't start

    Change your glow plugs every 12 months. Do it!!! For 60 bucks you will have a nice starting truck and lessen the chances of a controller failure. Kinda sounds like your injection pump is on the way out also with erratic idling.

    73 mph M1008

    73 mph in a 915? Do you know what happens to a Transfer case with 4.56 gears spinning at 3600 RPM? They get very very hot. An M1008 traveling at 73 mph, the engine is spinning past the governed speed of 3600 RPM. I do not think you traveled cross country with the engine bouncing off the...
