Sweet, post picks

Thanks, I'm not looking to regear. I prefer to keep the tires in the 36"-40" range on stock wheels. That and being able to switch tires sizes and or wheel/tire combo for the road/trail. We'll see, I'd rather see how far the extra rolling diameter helps before the tranny swap. My th400 does...

Why change gears? That's one of the pro's about a cucv

Would you guys still recommend the 700R4 swap if some went with larger mud tires, I've curious about tackling this but I'm also about to upgrade my tires anywhere from Q78 to a 40" of some type.

Great stance

The set up I'm saving for in my 1028 Is a 465 w/ranger, and a 205 w/ the magnum box and triple sticks I already swapped to a 6.5TD

Got it, not a bad idea. Being that my swap has taken all summer with me never being home, the truck being down since March, I'm probably going to have all kinds of problems

You mean spacing up the upper intake?

I'm just getting around to buttoning up my 6.5TD swap, I didn't think of this being a problem when I switched over all the 6.2 manual parts. I hope I don't have to many issues

Well that's no fun, I modify everything I drive "for the good"

Well I've found a good source, great communication, and he'll answer any time http://leroydiesel.com/

Anyone familiar with LeroyDiesel?

I'm new here fellas, where is this at?

Cool Beans, I'm up here by the lake in Elyria

I searched for about 6 months for a cucv, and fell in love with the m1028 I bought back in February this year. It was a cold cold winter, so she had mornings she didn't even start, and others she did but left my stranded at work in the parking lot after work. Then only 2 months later she...

My only problem is that the stock lines don't fit with the 6.5 driver side exhaust manifold and the funky route they take back, up the fire wall the down to frame ext.... No need for it And so I mangled my upper line in the re power process

That's about all I have come up with also. I think I'm just going to run some 90's off the block, then braided line under the motor mount to the factory hard lines on the driver side. And just reuse those hard lines the crossover to the pass side of the rad.

Well yes for my cucv! I would dropped in a 6.5 and would like to if anyone found a better solution to the fittings and lines

Anyone figure out a better solution?

Just dropped a 6.5t into my m1028, installing a 1" body lift now, and try to make this **** downpipe fit
