That sounds like an early symptom of the Hydraboost failing. Specially if turning one way is harder than the other. Mine did the same thing and there was also steering fluid dripping down behind the brake pedal.

I replaced the starter and a GM starter relay. I spent the extra money for the made in china GM part to prevent this from happening again. Good idea one the battery cut off switch. Thats cheap insurance so I think I will install one. Thanks Guys

I am getting ready to do this mod. Does anybody have a picture so I can copy the wire hookup. Thanks

My relay is only two months old. I pulled the gear reduction starter and could smell the problem. I pulled the solenoid off and it (solenoid) reeked. The starter does not smell. Do you think I should just replace the solenoid and give it a try? I will start looking for a supplier for this...

Thanks guys for your input. I just replaced the relay about two months ago. Im almost sure I also fried the starter because it was cranking for awhile.

Attempted to start my M1028 today and there was no power sent to the starter. I went inside the house and had the keys in my pocket. A short time later while I was on the phone, I heard a truck cranking. After about twenty seconds, I still heard the cranking and I realized it was my truck. I...

I left everything (DUVAC,both Leeces) in place and hooked up in case the new Sure power equalizer failed. It has worked perfect for almost two years now.

Great pics! Where is that at?

I would be in for Randsburg or the Panamint Springs/Trona area.

36x12.5x 16.5 Super Swamper SX

Yea they are 36 sx's. Locked/limited slip M1028 with 4" front springs and stock rear springs. Its a trade off having all these trails around. No Best Buy around for hours. NEVER BUY SX's for anything that goes on road. They will shake you truck apart. They are awesome for a trail vehicle.

I went high up into the Sierra's today and it was very warm. I was worried about overheating due to the long steep climb from 7000 feet up to 10300 feet and dozens of switchbacks. The 6.2 held 200 degrees the entire trip. I learned that the switchbacks were built by jeepers and not by CUCV...

I agree, I would replace the starter relay. Mine did the same thing before it failed. They are cheap and worth every penny to keep you moving.

How come my CUCV didnt come with "has so much power."

Thanks,

Found in my garage. Looks like a balancer?

Tore down my old 6.2 tonight for a rebuilding project. It had a blown head gasket and exhaust came out through the cooling system. First off, I noticed that on one side all the pistons were darker than the other. One of those piston looked like is had calcium deposits on its face. It came...

I read this post last night. Today I went out for a little offroad trip. For the first time ever, I left my cell phone at home. About ten miles out, I pulled off the trail to take a break. When I got bact into my truck, it would not start. So after several hours of doing wiring 101 for my...

These are pics from the petterson article on the M1008 build. I will try to find the link. I am still trying to get my 24v HMMWV 12k winch tucked between the frame rails.
