    28 MT Starter??

    Yeah, I've looked at those. After you get it post back on what you think of it. Quality, ease of installation. It's a very good price. I was just too chicken to buy one before getting a review. :oops:

    M1008 buying tips?

    Price seems a little high so I would definately use Alfa Heaven as a comparason. This guy's M1008 should look as good as Alphas. One note if you are new to diesels. The oil WILL be BLACK. That's normal. As mentioned smell is a better judgement of condition. Look for "modifications." Lots of...

    How much paint for M1009?

    It's just the exterior body. I have other plans for the frame, undercarriage, and interior. How about the cap? Since it's fiberglass do I need to primer it as well? As to the paint itself I'm not sure but I do plan to stay away from CARC as I've read about exposure & enviromental concerns...

    I'm Back, With A Blown Brake line ???

    Why? If his brake lines are blown then could be a problem to get to a shop. And the question for IBEZKUM is, they list different lines? I was planning on SS lines and a swap to a 14BFF. Another possible problem with my plan! :roll: :cry:

    M1008 Fuel Mileage (vs 1009)

    Rizzo I hope so :shock: :shock: :shock: 13.6 is scary bad for 3.08 since I'm planning on 35's for mine with 4.10!

    Why did this CUCV go for 6K?

    Well, somebody thought it was worth it. Some go cheap, some don't is all I can say.

    Batteries for a M1009

    Pick up Optimas from Costco. If you are planning a winch or other accessories get the Yellow Tops :D IIRC they are $140 ea at Costco.

    PTO

    So what exactly is a PTO? I have a vague idea.

    :( electric

    Yep! Taking a chance on the either igniting from the glow plug before the intake valve closes. GREAT BALLS 'O FIRE! :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: WD-40 works very well though.

    Adding AC to a CUCV

    I'm going to pull the AC out of the '87 Blazer. It has all the parts. My problem is I'm planning on a turbo and If I go with a stock turbo I'll have clearance problems to work out. I've heard one solution is to use the firewall parts from an S10. We'll see when I get there :roll: :roll:
