    CUCV door size difference between M1008 and M1009

    Great! Someone put some serious time in to getting these gathered and indexed like that, that's unbelievably nice. I have some minor issues to tackle with my M1008 and also with a S&S M1078 that we recently acquired at work to use as a tanker/tender/fire engine for wildfire...

    CUCV door size difference between M1008 and M1009

    Here is a closeup of the closure. These aren't what I think of when I think of barrel bolts, but I know my original photo didn't show this closure well. Regardless, has anyone seen this style or know of who made this. I can't seem to find anyone online who makes these now (tons of people...

    CUCV door size difference between M1008 and M1009

    Awesome! Hey, no need to get that screen shot, I'll download that TM and dig into it, I didn't realize the parts TM would cover all that, but I honestly never opened the parts one. They're massive, and a bit overwhelming, so I may try to print it off for easier reading. Thanks for the help! I...

    CUCV door size difference between M1008 and M1009

    Sorry, that's not my goal. I was hoping the collective knowledge of the group could confirm that the doors are identical (geometry, hinge size/pattern, etc.) between all Chevys of this vintage. I removed any mention of the sale in the above post (edited the first post), so I hope this clears...

    CUCV door size difference between M1008 and M1009

    Oh, here's a photo for those interested. I did a lot of searching to find who made these, without much luck. It is possible that they're a one-off fab job, as the steel is quite thick and the doors themselves are quite heavy, probably the strongest part of the body when placed on my truck. If...

    CUCV door size difference between M1008 and M1009

    All, Regarding the door size of my M1008, it is my assumption that the doors, hinges, etc. are no different from my '86 M1008 vs M1009s, similar vintage Kxx, Suburbans (front doors, of course). I did a good bit of internet searching (and this forum, with most search results related to...
