I was buying some parts for my K10, and the guy was building a serious off road truck. He got step bars off a new Jeep Cherokee IIRC, and they looked like purpose built rock sliders. He had to convince me they were a factory Jeep part. They were made out of tube, and were coated in a rough...

Kind of a strange question to just start asking randomly isn't is?

I have MT/Rs on my F350, and they're not too fun in hard packed snow / ice conditions. I went to make a left hand turn, but the truck kept going straight lol

I've wondered about this too. My trailer deck is 80" wide, and has a raised perimeter of about 3". I was thinking I could take 2"x10" boards and fill up that 3" gap around the deck, and drive up over the fenders. I don't know if the fenders will take the weight though. MT/R's around here are...

Seeing how you have nothing to lose, I would throw two pushrods in it and see what happens.

You got a great deal! It sounds like its coming along nicely. That washer pump saved you some cash.

Sounds like quite the situation. It sucks now, but someday it'll become one of those stories that gets shared and everyone has a laugh. If I lived in AZ I wouldn't mind giving you a hand. If you think of it, could you take a few pics where the truck is at? I'm curious to see the terrain.

Man, that is a really nice rig! I don't think I could bring myself to paint it.

I was watching, but didn't buy anything. Hopefully by this time next year I'll have a running/driving M998 in the driveway.

Flats are pretty easy to paint yourself. Check out GCI paints. They're about $40 a gallon and from what I've been reading, they spray pretty easy.

This is a good idea. If you cant store it in a secure location, parking other vehicles around it and disabling the truck is a pretty safe way to store it. Sounds like it should be safe at your families place though. Did it look like the guy was just checking it out because its cool? Or did he...

X1000 No blocks in the rear. Shackle flips are fine, or get a kit that includes lift springs.

Cool build! You're working that truck hard, but its better than parting it out! The lifted Escalade made me lol. Did he do any wheeling with it?

As said before, welcome! I'm currently in the market for a HMMWV, so I'll be hanging around this area a lot more now!

Go for it! It seems like a truck worth putting some cash into. Up here its not uncommon to see trucks with no rockers, or floors and they're still on the road. lol

I wouldnt worry about some pitting. Just replace what metal has rot, and move on.

Got over 2ft here. The truck pushed it all.

I have a 9ft blade on my 1008 and its fine with the weight.

Whats a GL driveshaft? They pick it up with a forklift and bend it? Nice looking truck!

When I start the M1008 its right around 45psi cold, and when it gets up to around 200F its at around 15-20psi. It jumps right back to 40 when driving. I was wondering what the rest of you guys are pulling for numbers? I know the general rule is 10psi for every 1K Rpm.
