Wow, I guess I've not bought one for a while. Several years back I had one let go and spew oil going to the FL Rally. NAPA in Clermont FL had 3 on the shelf.
Why fool with all these plans when new mfr is available almost anywhere. Here is a link (hopefully) to one at NAPA. I wouldn't waste my time with NOS.

I had my M1010 trucked up to GA in March of last year. Today I drove it to pick up my son from football. Was gone about 90 minutes. That is the longest it has been out of the yard since delivered. I have not put any fuel in it since it was in FL. Today I filled it up, that's what I did to my...

Consider a 33x10.50 as an option. Lift not required. The add a leaf will add a rougher ride too. Zero rate blocks will give you an extra inch if needed. DIY4X has a similar product under a different name
A word or 50 from the RT. Aside from getting a late start due to electicty issues, all went well. For all the folks whom I've forgotten your name for the 4th or 5th year, I'm sorry. Retired life is rough. A special thanks to all the folks who helped out at my AO. Pat, Gunnermac, Marty, PJ and...
The alternator doesn't know which side of the truck it's on. It just doesn't matter. If going to a straight 12V system, iso or non iso alt makes no difference. If it is iso ground, make certain that you ground that stud.
