    On a slightly happier note my "Lite N Boltz" LED lites showed up today! Thanks SUMMIT. Not sure why they (UPS) didnt knock on the door or I could have installed them already. The weather is now turning to crud and Im not going out in it. Oh, they are going in place of my rear license plate...

    Yanked the flooring out...

    I would do as DocWatson said. Clean it up and seal it. If it goes through then cut out the affected area and weld in a patch. Good luck!

    I covered the shifting fix in another thread. The cause was a defective metal vacuum tube. One end that was flared had beem "pulled" or "stretched". This created a tapper in the metal vacuum line. I found it by using a clear hose vs the standard black vacuum hose. I noticed that the flare...

    Today I did a bunch of little things all CUCVs tend to need. I adjusted the hood so it now fits properly. Adjusted the door lock bar so the doors close and latch without having to slam the door shut. I also had a local machine shop cut me out a piece of 1/8" steel plate so I could mount my...

    different types of transmissions for m1028

    My friend has one (700R4) in his 1 ton "Suburbanator" thats behind a very built 454 v8 and tows a 10,000 lbs trailer all over **** and back. He has had the same "built" 700R4 for 10 years and counting. He orginally had a TH400 but the highway RPMs were just killing his already non existant...

    different types of transmissions for m1028

    Heres another way to look at it. Swapping in a 700R4 thats built to handle a turbo charged engine here is what you achieve. 70 mph 37" tall tires .70 over drive ratio (700R4) 4.56 gear ratio (axles) 2029 RPMs What you had with same tires ect but with a TH400 70 mph 37" tires 1.0 (none over...

    different types of transmissions for m1028

    Thats not a "shot" across the bow. Its a legit question. The simple answer is you can build a "half ton" transmission to be as strong or stronger than a 1 ton transmission. They are Purpose built for the desired application. In some cases its a better way to go since you can get a 4 speed...

    Vent Windows

    Thanks for the part numbers. What I need I believe is just a set or to rebuild the lock or levers themselves. Im not having much luck finding a rebuild kit. It may not even exist. If not then maybe a new set of locks. If I have to I will go with complete new assemblies but I dont believe...

    Hi guys and gals, Ive been searching but havent had much luck. Trying to pull off the vent window locks. I would like to rebuild them. After running down the road with my kids in the M1028 I determined that the sound may just be of the right pitch to cause hearing loss...... No kidding. The...
