I'm seeing the same as you; Blazers get the 305-350 mounts. But supposedly, the M1008's call for the same mounts as a 454. Then, there's Energy Suspension's site that appears to not even offer any mounts or inserts for 1982-86 K30.... go figure! Man, this motor mount thing is a weird mystery. I...

:funny:

You need to download and install Adobe Reader to veiw the TM's because they are all PDF format. Google it---- it's all over the place.

Question Mr. Firecontrol; did you replace THE WHOLE motor mount assembly? Not just the rubber parts? Reason I ask is because I also searched for info on this and one recommendation is to just replace the inner rubber, (or some kind have poly) and not the whole sha-bang. It's like a clam-shell...

Sorry I couldn't be of any help, but wife & I are headed out of town and won't return until Nov 2nd. If that's still in time for your schedule let me know, I'm only 30 miles from B'-stow and would be glad to go. regards, Dave

I would like to comment on the recommendation for the Wellman gp's; here's photos of a set I just pulled from my newly acquired M1008. This vehicle has only been started twice since I got it and yes--- I've did the gp resistor bypass before I ever started it. It's a bit difficult for my old...

Thought I would post this here because it's where lots of us locals will be viewing just before the election: An important message for So Cal MV-er's regarding an issue that very defiantly could affect our hobby. Meanwhile, looking forward to seeing you all at camp DB... regards, Dave...

Dotto what Barrman says. And I would add that unless you are prepared to do the necessary work on this vehicle for the time it will take to make it a dependable daily driver, expect the unexpected until you do. Meanwhile, good luck!

Yea, I'm reading that study too and wondering WHAT that bio-diesel, costs? Anybody have bio-diesel in their neighborhood?

If you don't mind me pointing out; no matter WHAT it costs for new master cyl & DOT 5 AND/OR whatever ELSE is needed to make your brakes work like new, that cost will be NOTHING when compared to the costs of a rear-end collision, school cross-walk accident, no brakes on a downhill grade... (not...

P8250061.jpg Hard to say from just a photo, but my eye spots something lookin' like a crack... hope it's not too bad!

From my view, you have some scary looking stuff under that hood there my friend. Looks like the back batt is held down by a bungee cord and the front doesn't have ANYTHING holding it down. A good bump or emergency stop, heck even a little fender bender could launch those batts right into the...

I'm with McClusky; can this stuff be dyed or whatever, to any color? And is this stuff do-it-yoursefer or strictly shop work? Also, wouldn't it be REALLY prudent to prep any areas to be covered with rust inhibitor, or whatever? What I mean is; how many have seen undercoating go to rust?

I've been waiting a long time to do this.... nopics

Maybe I'm not reading right, I don't know. But I bought some of the Lucas diesel stuff because I'm doing a first start here on my M1008, sometime this week I hope. All I'm putting in the tank is 2 gals new/clean diesel because I just need to move truck for now, and later on I'll pull tank and...

Just visited the local Harbor to pick-up a few things and danged if I didn't see that gun but figured it's price is way too cheap to be of any real use--- look how wrong ya' can be?! In fact, I need a rig like that for some light rust removal. How much air does it require? My compressor is only...

Let me hear ya' say: AMEN! Hey now--- been working 'round heavy equipment 20-some years and the first time you see 24 volts weld a mishandled wrench to sheet metal, I guarantee you'll ALWAYS have a healthy respect for the amps involved... not to mention the potential burnt flesh from...

What a FIASCO this has turned into my friend... if I could just get those dipstick assemblies from NOS type distributors I would have been as successful as a demon... only, none of those distributors stock those parts anymore... it's a sad day I must stand by and watch your dipstick tube...

I see... well, too bad my inquiry has come to personal frosting... may I STRONGLY SUGGEST that you do the same parts searching for something obscure and difficult, and see your result. Meanwhile, perhaps I wasn't very clear in my post; my vehicle is M1008. Need Dipstick tube assembly for this...

Politely asking Mr. Jwaller: please explain w/detail; what is the DEEP WATER, and what is BETTER LOCKING DIPSTICK that you speak of? Or is the onus upon us to do the research to determine these descriptions? Meanwhile, are these LOCAL TRUCK you've modded the '82 thru 87, M1008 variety? Or were...
