    Locker vs Limited slip in front axle of m1008

    I will be.following this as well. Mine will mostly be minimal off roaring but mostly hills when it happens. I also need calmer mannerisms for snowy road driving in the mountains. E Locker sounds perfect but twice the.cost of a Powrlock LSD. Decisions.

    Congrats Jon. Sounds like quite an adventure.

    Front end/Rear end Swap

    I did the same swap on a burb many years ago and did not change shaft length.

    M1008 coming home! Sadly not today.

    Yeah, fuel filter change is a must before any further diagnosis.

    Electrical soldering/connections basics.

    This is a great discussion and learning tool for many. One thing not mentioned (or I missed it) has been non insulated butt connectors. I use these almost exclusively with marine grade heat shrink. Right or wrong, its been working well for me.

    Front end/Rear end Swap

    Spring pads will line up. Since its a semi floater, it had to have come from a 3/4 ton. This should be a fairly straight forward swap. I swapped axles in my truck last weekend and even moved the Detroit NoSpin from one rear to the other. Took a day!

    Front end/Rear end Swap

    The front springs are designed with that negative arch. I can't imagine what would happen if you flip them.

    Trailer to haul a M1008

    I have thousands of miles towing CUCVs between 55-60. They are very friendly to the flat tow. Need to unlock hubs and steering wheel lock. I prefer to remove rear axle shafts, others do not. Since I have block off plates and an impact, it's a 5 minute job and I don't have to lay under the...

    Trailer to haul a M1008

    Have you considered a tow bar? It will require decent tires on the CUCV. How far north in GA?

    The VTCS m756a2 Pipeline Truck

    I need to check what's left of my TMs. One of the -10 updates had an entire 756 section that another update doesn't have. I also have some other M756A2 literature somewhere I need to find.

    The VTCS m756a2 Pipeline Truck

    You have some sheave blocks. I know you have the rear anchor for the sheave block, is the center one there or do the get switched? Been a while.

    Yet another newb trying to post pics

    This might also be the first site that is free of links to pics that no longer exist. I am no fan of tapatalk either. I am using the Dolphin browser and I can upload pics just fine.

    Restore sagging front springs with Add A Leaf Springs

    Well, lets not assume that everyone knows your self made abbreviations. Our search system is munged up enough with folks that haven't yet mastered the elementary aspect of spelling, lets not make searching more difficult than it already is by creating more abbreviations. My point was that even...

    Front end/Rear end Swap

    Front shaft will require nothing to bolt on, it will be perfect. The rear you will need that combination u-joint and a close look at the driveshaft while in place. The pinion on the 9.5" 14 bolt is just a little bit longer than the 10 bolt. If anything, you may need to shorten the shaft just...
