    M1009 axle swap with H1 37's...Oh my what gear ratio to run...?

    It sounds like you are going about the choice the right way! My first thought... 4.56, keep the TH400 and get the OD. 4.10 might be the way to go, but 3.73 is too high IMHO. A couple questions though: Are you planning to do any towing? What percentage of off-road / highway and around town do...

    How can we help Sandy victims?

    I contacted my county emergency response team and volunteered my services. I didn't need the M35 for my own evacuation, it sat in my driveway and hasn't moved. I haven't been called upon and I live at the NJ shore...2cents

    Death of a Multifuel

    Sorry to hear of the misfortune. I had a multifuel that did the same thing. I couldn't believe it but sure enough it started and ran. If someone was shooting at me, I would darn sure drive it! :grd:

    GL M1008's in NJ

    Yep, we brought those two in. Definitely not something I would put back on the road. Rear axles in both were stripped of gears and carrier and bearing caps missing (ie: rear axles are scrap). Motors stripped, interior trashed etc. In hindsight, I would have bid less. -HW

    Gilbert 2012 Want/Bring/looking for list

    We are looking forward to the show! The plan to bring list should be pretty long but will contain plenty of CUCV parts. Everything we have is HEAVY so I may owe Hawkman a few favors! We should have a couple refurbished axles to display/sell:beer: Also plenty of u-bolts, plates, axle parts, Heavy...

    M1008 14 bolt ring sizes

    Ooh ooh, I know this one... It's been stated correctly already but CUCV era FF 14 bolts are 10.5 ring gear and the SF rears are 9.5. Be careful of the carrier breaks. Since CUCVs were factory with 4.56 ratio, they got the 4.56 and up carriers. This can be an issue when you are buying...

    Changed my diff covers

    M1008Driver, Looks nice! We have several people that go with the SOLID covers because they are priced right. Some others to consider are Ballistic (as mentioned) and Ruffstuff Specialties. I usually go with SOLID or Ruffstuff 3/8" covers. Both are a nice product.
