    What is this thing?

    GP resistor. to convert 24v to 12v for the GPs. If its not hooked up to anything then your GP's have been switched to straight 12v. Its not needed for anything.

    Is this a rifle mount?

    Got it! I think your idea should work. I have a fire extinguisher in that location.

    1008/10/28/31 lug and nut?

    I'm not sure on the size, but it should be Standard measurement. The switch to metric happened in the 90's (?) ETA: the internet says 9/16"

    Is this a rifle mount?

    You don't need to move the seat to get it out of the holder. 10 or 20rnd mag works better, doesn't get in the way when you;re getting in and out of the truck. A shot gun fits in there too.

    Is this a rifle mount?

    ^this. Look over your left shoulder. I assume pickup due to bench seat. its where the hemostat is clamped.

    Part numbers for dana 60 hub

    I found the part numbers for all 3 of the bearings for the hub and spindle. TIMKEN SET38 front outer bearing and race. TIMKEN 382A inner race TIMKEN 387AS inner bearing TIMKEN SBK3 spindle bearing and seals. Do you guys think that I need to replace the locking hubs too?

    Part numbers for dana 60 hub

    So looking through 34-p fig 96 I can't find the part numbers for the bearings in the hubs. Also what's the torque spec for the spindle nut? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using Tapatalk

    Cucv fuel filter replacement or not?

    Yep, same as priming an oil filter. I replace my box fuel filter every 10K miles. So, every other oil change.

    Battery Booster Resistor Needed

    Just switch your GPs to run straight off of 12V. No need for the resistor.

    Do I really want a M1009? (MPG)

    LA to barstow is at MOST 10 gal for me in my m1008. Including pretrip grocery shopping. Which works out to at least 15mpg. A 26gal blazer with the 3.08 gears should be able to get you from LA to vegas on one tank. But, I do recommend stopping by the "food 4 less? (kroger store)" in barstow to...

    Did you every fix your problem? I am also still experiencing death wobble even after replacing the kingpin bushings and springs, with two washers for pre-load. ETA: just found my front driver shock to have internally failed. Will be replacing it and it should fix my problem.

    2016 SoCal Fall Rally

    Finally my truck is home from the event!!! I just finished unloading! It was a great event for me! Replacing the starter took a little bit longer to replace because the nut for the support bracket on the starter was stripped, but nothing a small application of a BFH couldn't fix. Now I'm...
