I've been trying to think of a good place other than the doors to install some speakers in a 1008 but none are really coming to me. Anyone have any ideas?

Just wondering what some of you guys are doing to kill your rust issues...

Do you have any photos of this? I like the Idea for only 20 bucks but would like to see it. Thanks

I want/need to install a stereo, the problem is I have no idea where to mount it, how to install it, and how to hook the speakers up to it. So if you guys could help me out that would be great. :)

What's the difference between a screw in heater and one of these freeze plug removal heaters?

I saw this and started to think of jurrasic park, hopefully you aren't trying to fit in with the dino's right :-P

I've seen some of these DIY bed liners that are spray/roll on and I like them a lot. Before I go ahead and take the plunge I thought I'd ask and see if any of you have done this before? If all goes well in the bed, I'm also thinking of rolling inside the cab. Just on the floorboards and...

Seems like this guy has a bad habit of hittin his sides!

I know another thread about lifts, but I just can't seem to find my answer yet... I am looking at putting a 3.5" lift on a 1008. I understand you have to extend the brake lines but what else is there thats different on a military truck. If I buy a 1986 K30 lift kit, will it go on a m1008...

It's really easy to find a cheap 1" or 2" susp. lift online. Here is a 3.5 for less than the tires would cost. I'd reccomend buying this and saving for the tires in the long run. 3.5 in. Suspension System with Superide Shocks

How much did that whole kit cost you? And what is that zero turn stuff?

Kay I might give it a shot. I guess if I screw up I'll just sand it down again. Don't you have to mix the paint and stuff though. How hard is that?

Just wondering if you all would think it would be completely stupid to re-tune my fuel injectors so I could black smoke. To be honest there's really no reason for it other than the looks :-o. I wouldn't have it tuned to be smoking 24/7, just when i lay on the throttle. Anyway would this ruin...

Check ebay, I'm pretty sure i saw one the other day in NC for about 3200 that didnt look too bad.

Anyone know, whats some really durable paint that will last forever and won't rust?

I've been looking at this site, it seems kinda sketchy to me. A.) You can't drive the truck before you may buy? B.) You can't look at it in person? C.) There is literally no description, how do you know what your buying? Just some things I'm worried about...thanks for any help clearing...

That seems really high to me...is it the 3-tone that bumps it up that much? What would it cost to just get a 1-tone paint job?

Yep, i'd go with the junkyard option too. These trucks are fairly common there, you shouldn't have too hard of a time finding one. If you do, look up some similar years and models that used the same driveshaft and scout out one of those. Most smart manufacturer's use interchangeable parts...

Thanks guys, I really want the paint to last and look good. I was wondering what kind of paint you'd recommend if I want it to last forever?

Check the junkyards first, the trucks are pretty common. You might even fing one from a civilian truck for less than 400 that works great, since its from a junkyard though i'd still recommend either rebuilding it yourself or draining everything and checking it out.
