    Hummer rims & tires on my Cucv ????

    They do make adapter spacers to use 8 lug on 6 lug axles. I don't think it's a worthwhile thing to do though because with 3.08 gears it's going to be pathetically slow and strain those 10 bolts.

    Thz71's M1008

    Winch mount

    I essentially did the above install. Used a harbor freight winch mount that I cut down. I then drilled holes in my frame up front and mounted the winch up side down behind the bumper.

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    its a zero lift shackle flip from totally naked auto that's local to me. Yes it's adjustable for stock 52's up to 64's. I mainly got it because it doesn't raise the truck up at all but I also plan on going to 56's at some point.

    I think it would be a good option and then maybe just a 2" shackle flip in back of the front is too high compared to the rear

    Trimming advice / pattern for 35"??

    You can use a zero rate block from ORD or diy4x. It just bolts to the spring pack using the center pin. You'd just have to keep an eye on drive shaft length
