    Anyone Near Hooks? (Need pickup of one M101A2)

    The pick up went well. I left my house at 11:00 pm Thursday night and picked up at 7:30 am. They actually had to store the trailer outside the GL lot as they were shut down because of some small gov shutdown that affected DRMO. Anyway I got it, made a quick weekend trip to Muskogee to visit a...

    Anyone Near Hooks? (Need pickup of one M101A2)

    The title says it all. I'd like to avoid taking a day off if I can and see if anyone can pick up just one M101A2 for me at Hooks? If you can hold it for me for a few days I can pick it up on a Saturday or Sunday. I am about 30 miles West of Houston. Thanks in advance!

    No they are both 12.5" wide and therefore have the same footprint.

    M1009 Wheel Questions..

    Do you mean what size metal wheel width? I think in the other thread you said you were already running 12.5" wide tires already right? If so the wheel wouldn't change.

    Lawn Care Tips

    We haven't been able to grow any grass in a while because of Our severe drought conditions. I have had my lawn mowed once in the last 5-6 months and it's not tall at all. When the kid did mow it he had to wear a dust mask.

    OD Iron AC install for the AC novice

    Sorry I let this slack off. I started the AC install before we moved into our house and then when we moved I re-installed what I had taken off and moved the truck. Then I got wrapped up in a new house, re-doing my seats, the whole front end rebuild, etc. Anyway I actually took the truck to...

    Tire suggestion for m1009

    Yes both differentials have to be re-geared otherwise you'll have problems. Are you going to keep the Gov-Lock (Detroit locker by the way)?

    Tire suggestion for m1009

    Have you called to see if they just have some? 3:73 or 4:10 gears would even be common in GM vehicles over there. However if they don't have access you can try: Randy's Ring & Pinion. The Differential Experts. Auto Parts & Services. Ring and Pinion Gears - Summit Racing Equipment National...

    CUCV Help in/near Central Louisiana

    Looks pretty chewed up. The good news is that new hubs arent that outrageous. I paid around $45 for mine. Yours may be more.

    Tire suggestion for m1009

    Well I never heard him say how well the truck accelerates as opposed to stock. However it's simple math. With a 35" tire your turning more mass and therefore putting a larger load on the drivetrain. Most people put a lift kit and big tires on these trucks and just expect them to perform without...

    M1009 Driving Crooked

    My thoughts on the center pin as well. Nothing really to see but I figured I would ask. I'm planning on having my wife drive it tonight while I ride behind on my motorcycle. I'll let everyone know what we find.

    M1008 TH400 Shift Issue

    Would it not shift at all or did it just take forever to do so? How fast did you get the truck up to? Have you ever replaced your vacuum hose? Have you checked the vacuum valve in the side of the transmission and the vacuum line that goes between the metal line and valve?
