yeah, they added a slide out with the pop top. Wish I could find interior shots.

I have wanted to do a raised/popup roof since I had my first 1010. Not sure how easy it would be. Only pic I have run across with a popup was this one. I think it was in Europe.

Is that back to back starting attempts or over the course of multiple hours? If back to back (or relatively short time) it might be a heat induced issues where the solenoid or relay is heating up and sticking.

That's a neat idea.

Good luck! I don't think many were made and not sure any made it into HMMWV's. If you happened to find a new one, I had seen prices of $12,000. This is the ultimate 6.5 series engine but sadly they stopped producing almost as fast as they started.

I bought and recently installed one on my M1010. Haven't gotten the new gauges in so not sure what temp I am running but figured it would be good to keep temps balanced.

Yeah, my first M1010 had a problem with bad vacuum lines and modulator. I did the lines first and then had to do the modulator.

Thanks. A lot of places sell them (I think even Amazon) but I get them from the source as they are local to me. http://www.k4direct.com/indicator-dash-lights.html

I did what the OP is looking to do on my first M1010. I converted the truck to 12 volt only and wanted to keep the two isolated when the truck was off, so if one battery died (bad cell) it would not suck both batteries down. I used a Blue Sea solenoid (500 amp continuous, 2000 surge). It...

So which model are you using? On both Energy Suspension and Prothane, I am not finding engine mounts listed for the 6.2. Are you using big block (454) or what?

Yes. Very heavy spring inside to prevent the valve from "floating" when at higher RPM's.

Most recent work was adding indicator lights to my dash project. With the new gauges, I lose some of the factory lights so I got a M1008 volt meter panel (doesn't have the rear door open light) and added K-Four Legends indicators.

I thought I would update this thread to show what I was doing with this bezel. This is for some factory indicator lights that are loss with the removal of the factory gauges.

That is A/C only in that top unit. Inside there is a diesel powered heater.

Down here in San Diego. Working on my M1010, converting it into a camper. This is my second M1010.

Yeah, idiot lights are exactly that. I lost an engine in my '64 Chevy II wagon because by the time the idiot light came on, it was too late. Rebuilt engine and promptly put full gauges in. Will no longer have an older vehicle without adding high quality gauges. Cheaper than rebuilding an engine.

You definitely get better visability and not completely out of place since many times dually trucks would have those.

Thanks all. I received one.

It's called ssome sheet metal and a welder or find what you need in the junk yard, cut it out and weld it in. I don't think anyone makes those for the square body trucks.
