Rus, if adjusting the vac regulator does nothing to change the down stream vacuum then I would look into a new vacuum regulator (or on rockauto: egr valve) if it still does nothing then it would be most likely the trans failing. as for the OP, push the vacuum regulator towards the firewall...

just replace the bushings and springs, since you have it all apart. better than shoving washers in to compensate for a weakened spring

look into the -34 TM and the -34P it should have more detail

I have a bad switch in my steering column. If I play with it, the washer stops squirting.

10-12 city, 20 hwy M1008. stock and with 37" hummer tires and hummer bead locks.

I just used Napa st-85 relay. Not sure on why the need to upgrade this part.

Member Shankem http://www.steelsoldiers.com/member.php?18687-Shankem-Deep Does or did the rock sliders for m1008 and m1009 ETA: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?74875-Diy-rock-sliders

When ihad to replace my lift pump. The nut at the pump rounded off. So I found a fitting for the pump, cut the steel line and rand a few inches of rubber fuel line from the pump to the steel line.

bad turn signal switch would be my guess.

rockauto is a good source.

m1009's (blazers) had the D44 front 10 bolt gov bomb rear, 3.08 gearing. m1008's (pickup) had the D60 front and 14 bolt read with detroit locker, 4.56 gear ratio in the axles

Are your gp, s switched to 12v or are they still 24v. If still 24v then it is a sign that you have burnt out gp's. Gp controller cycles to keep the gps from burning out too quickly.

So when putting the seal in do you have to lube its driveshaft(yolk) contacting surface with ATF, or leave it dry as possible? And trick with the speedo cable or does it screw right back on without any problems?

yeah rusty, looks like a horrible place to be "stuck"

Nice! Congrats! http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?127575-Must-do-mods Go to that thread, answers your thread the best. doghead relay mod, gp's to 12v, do all fluids and filters are a good start. Cigarette lighter outlet (I put in 4) is a good idea so you can keep electronics charged.

between 10 and 20. Depends on what you're doing. I get 11-12 city, 20 hwy if its mostly flat.

dog head relay mod, switch glow plugs to 12V, change all fluids and filters. ETA: change/ fix things as they come along.

At the relay; will jumping the orange wire with green wire make the horn go off?

I bought a MOOG stabilizer off of rockauto.

What is average condition? These vary quite a bit and depends what was done to it.
