    1008 lift

    I have only hauled my ATV with tracks so I have not really loaded anything heavy in it. For C rated tires they do just fine for what I do with the truck.

    1008 lift

    I used ORDs brake lines and Tuff Country SX8000 shocks, greasable leafspring bushings and a few other ORD goodies. It does great in deep snow and mud.

    1008 lift

    My truck has 4" Tuff Country in the rear and Skyjacker 4" with 1" ORD Zero rates up front, and Q78,16 Swampers. If I was to do it again I would have ordered the Tuff Country HD 4" springs for the front instead of the Skyjacker springs.

    Duramax and M1009

    Length and weight for the DuraMax are less than the 6bt so I dont think those would be the biggest obstackles for the DMax swap, I think the electronics and the Allison fitting in the truck would be the biggest problems.

    I probably saw that truck driving around new early in its life, I spent a good part of 1984 stationed at Aberdeen.
