Good luck

7 days no news this is getting to be like a sick family member

2deuce I think the rev's are not high. If I did the math right the gearing is below 410's. I have been running it like this for over 5 years with those road speeds. NOTHING has ever gone wrong with the truck.

The tires are 35in the blazer has 4:56 gears I drive around 70mph on a regular basis. I just drove it from vegas back to seattle,wa this was the 5th trip never any issues.

Here are some pics of my toys. The blazer has the axles from a M1008. Enjoy Chuck

Good luck like I said before once you get it running you will love driving it.

I switched from the 4:56 to 4:10 a few years ago when I was using the truck on the road alot it worked perfect. I switched back to 4:56 when the truck went back to off road duty. Also if you use 410's you get to use the same locker.

If anyone needs a top with glass I have one sitting in my back yard. FREE for the taking its in las vegas,nv

Really looking forward to this haven't had a Saturday off in 2 years. Put a new muffler on the blazer yesterday, diesel fumes are ok on short trips. See everyone who is heading south on Saturday at exit 99 at 7am. Chuck

Dumb question on my part, is exit 99 south as I get on 5 from 18, heading toward Tacoma

Sorry for this late post I was out of town for a week in an area that I had no computer access, I am coming from north bend wa, and was supposed to meet up with other people Saturday near Tacoma, I think, went back through the posts and cant find where we are meeting. Can someone please let me...

Just finished my 4th round trip from vegas to seattle with my baby a 86 M1009. It has the rears from a M1008 and 35in tires. Ran perfect as expected, a little warm through the desert about 210 degrees. It got about 13.5mpg and used less than half a quart of oil. Ran about 65mph the whole way...

Good luck again

Anyone in the Seattle area have a tow bar that I could borrow for a few days next month or know where I can buy one. Need to tow a couple of CUCV's. Chuck
