    new M1009, lots of plans and ideas

    ok the general idea I'm getting is that the axles in the 1009 are not that sturdy and anything too big tire wise will not last long. 31-32-maybe 33 is ok according to most. I'm sure if I put some aggrressive 31-32's I'll be just fine, won't need to regear or anything not makign a hard...

    new M1009, lots of plans and ideas

    well a friend of mine is the BMO, and he was pretty sure anything I needed done to the truck he could do, he was mad I didn't bring the engien to him for a rebuild. I had to tell him I was in a bit of a hurry to get it running on its own so I could move it around some before I left on my trip.
