Putting a 2" new spring lift all the way around with nitro shocks. I'll add the new steering stabilizer when I finish the front axle lift on my 1985 M1009.

wayne pick it looks good

hot dog, i like the original radio. It looks like it belongs, way better than any tacky aftermarket unit.

Those bilsteins were cheap ... right! Thats a nice rig, place looks nice also.

 

[ororke1]

I can't find anything cheap anymore!
The new ball joints and Bilsteins were worth it though, front end handles like new or maybe better.

Thanks for the compliment, my place is more work than that 1009, taking care of calves, horses and all that goes with it.

I changed all my glow plugs yesterday. Took almost 30 min! I had to grind the blades down. I was so worried about swelling I ordered a GP puller from the JJ&A place foe 100$ Stupid me I knew I should have checked the plugs before ordering the tool. Anyone need a tool?

okay.. heres a few pics.. of recent mods.... mounted new oil Pressure gauge and Tach, (waiting to Dakota Digital module to arrive to complete tach install.. Tried connecting directly to the D or C pin in the STE ( for testing ) does not do anything...) completed installation of temp probes for Water and Trans... Also this was done a while back, but made new battery tray. And used 1/4 plate to install front F250 shocks..( done in such a way, I can go back and install 14" shocks in future...).


FYI, I'm looking for the top 24v bus cover, If anyone has one to sell, PM me.... Thanks....

 

[ororke1]

I like the way you cleaned up the battery areas!

 

[zaxcucv]
