    M1008 rear wheel cylinder

    Look at the UOC code. UOC 209 is for the M1009 blazer. At the front of the TM, there is a list of UOC codes basically telling you which vehicle it's used on. Kudos for using the parts TM. In your case it would be 18004794. I crossed that over to NSN using the appendix and got...

    Traffic Stop/I was speeding

    Probable cause is not needed for a stop. Reasonable suspicion is though. Would a reasonable person think that an obvious looking MV with markings that support this, think that the long haired driver might have taken it? We, as collectors, are often asked and queried about our vehicles. Without...

    1008 stock replacement front springs

    I think S&D has been mentioned before. Dayton is one of the bigger mfrs. I will be replacing a set of rears soon.

    Traffic Stop/I was speeding

    Hello? Forrest? Not even lawyers and judges know all the laws. This is why they have computers, statute books and law libraries. This thread makes me chuckle at all the shade tree lawyers and rebel rousers not to mention so much disinformation or just facts that aren't so. I shall enjoy the...

    'father' of 'twins'...

    They are an excellent all around trailer. Congrats and welcome aboard. The only thing wrong with them is they're only 45" between the fenders. The A3 version fixed that. You will enjoy the heck out of these.

    Traffic Stop/I was speeding

    I think saying that he didn't like being wrong is a stretch into reading minds. If he, in fact, was weilding an attitude, he could easily have writtin the speeding ticket. It's unreasonable to expect every LEO to know every single law. They have a statute book and I'm reasonably sure he...

    Rebuilding FMJ's M1031 SECM

    Let me add that Ed was certainly a great guy and worthy friend. I'm glad to see you honoring him with this build. If you plan on retaining the factory bench seat, I'll be happy to send you a new seat bottom cover. This repaces the original seat material.

    Injection pump help

    Most of the good injection houses can build any 2829 pump into whatever list number pump specs are. Having a core pump to send out later is a good thing too. No experience here but I'm told rebuilt pumps degrade if stocked too long.

    Cost for replacing front leaf springs and shocks?

    In my humble opinion, I think one runs more of a liability risk changing a front tire vs changing front springs. I retorque my ubolts at 50 and 500 miles and thats it. Much more chance for a problem changing a tire.

    New to me m59 dump truck...

    In one of my brighter moments. I decided I needed all the M59s. Like a fool, I bought the yellow one on Wisconsin and with the help of Steel Soldiers members, shipped it to S FL. Then the blue one came up. Again, Steel Soldiers members to the rescue. Tbis truck never made it to FL, it was...

    New to me m59 dump truck...

    That truck looks oddly familiar. It looks like a combination of the yellow truck and blue truck in my pics.

    CUCV revving up too high when first started, also sometimes sticks at a high RPM

    Might I also add that as long as the VIN plate is on the dash by the windshield, it's good to go. I'm 85 miles between E and ESE of Chattanooga, if you find yourself in the area, I have a front bumper for you.

    Preparing for pickup (checklist)

    Isn't a 2/4 ton van the same as a half ton?

    Best laid plans...

    FWIW, out of probably 10 deuces I've purchased, drove all but 2 home.

    West bound!

    If I'm gonna be on an out of control snow saucer, I want it to be the heaviest saucer on the slopes.

    With a little heatin and bendin that thing would make a Boss Snow Sled.
