I remember I posted in a thread that the steering wheel on my M1008 did not have a alignment tab, in previous GM vehicles, the steering wheel would only go on the shaft in one setting, not true for my M1008. I only took it off to change the ignition lock, so some low...
To keep everything in front of that bumper with the support brackets for the shackles and the pintle hitch, behind the fuel tank, things get cramped. A fellow member had a great idea and built a simple hitch that is probably as strong as the M1009 needs. Basically we have a 1/2 ton SWB pickup...
As many as there are with broken main bearing webbing and broken crankshafts from too much rpm, small parts like that should be available at your local engine rebuild shop.
Hey! My M 1008 had a metallic come and go rattle and when I finally found it, I felt a little slow..... the front brace for the starter was loose where it bolted to the block. Sounded like a rattling chain. Glen
If it is working right, you will definitely know. You can feel it kick off with your foot when you are driving down the street. It should advance the timing at the same time. The diesel knock is much more pronounced when the fast idle is on. The warmer the ambient temperature, the shorter it...
I am not sure what is up with all the ammo cans. My brother bought several thousand and has been selling them for years on Ebay and to Geocachers. I will go find out sometime when I do not have Sir along. Having somebody approach me or the truck in his presence is very hard to deal with. He is a...
I must be getting old, I wandered around the hills looking for the buffalo and could not locate it. When I got to Longford, I knew I was too far north and east, time to head back.
That is fine though, any evening trip through those hills is time not wasted. Sadly when I finally found the...
We left the Arrowhead and I planned to stop at the Ottawa County fishing lake, it is normally beautiful, but the recent rains had the water murky brown. The fish must have been biting as there were few places along the bank unoccupied. Since Sir has a personality disorder, we did not stop. He...
We made another venture today, we started with a new driver. Buddy was in the driver's seat yesterday, Sir took over today.
I wanted to get some photos of it in the tall prairie grass, called my buddy and found he was at the lake. I will have to return. He bought the old Arrowhead Boy Scout...
MWMules, you have some great country just south of you, most people have no idea what kind of history and treasures east central and southeast Kansas have to offer.
Ol' Ag, that is the original paint on that one. It could use new rockers and a tail gate skin. I am inclined to just run her until...

Sounds like a deal, I know of a road west of here that needs something special to break it down a little. Not sure who would pull you out though if you got hung up!
That would have to be a really screaming hot nice one, almost perfect. They will get it though, they have a huge advertising base and do good work. I paid 4995 for my M1008 with under 25,000 on it.
I got mine from a member here who bought it near SLC. It had been at the Dugway Proving Ground...
