    1984 Chevrolet M1010 CUCV 4x4 Ambulance 6.2 liter Diesel

    Why would I be looking for one of these... I already have one that I am in the process of selling. A deposit has been made on mine. :ylsmoke: BTW, to anyone looking at this, I can tell you someone has already been doing something with charging system as it is most definitely not a stock M1010...

    SilBlades now available at Sierra Expeditions

    Well, I needed blades so I just ordered a pair. If they work well, I'll likely get them for all of my vehicles. :)

    Question about overall height

    Great info guys. Just for reference, here's a side pic. Still need to lift the front some (2-3") but it gives you an idea of where it currently sits.

    Question about overall height

    Hi everyone, Well, I need some input and thought the hard side group would be the ones who might have the best input. I am right at the point of deciding to start the camper build of my M1010 project (see link in sig) or move to a different platform (i.e. truck/popup camper) but I would really...

    1Leg’s 1989 Suburban

    Nice job on the wheels. I am not a fan of the black wheel trend but I have to say the stockers in black with the white burb looks great! Again, welcome back to town!

    What fabric for pop-top roof sides?

    My understanding (which is limited) is that linear yard is whatever the width of the material is x 1 yard. Basically linear as it rolls off the roll. At least that's how fabric stores work.

    Sorry I missed this question. Doh! Brakes are not axle related as everything has brakes so that is normal maintenence. Unless you buy a new axle (like I did), anything you get will likely need brakes replaced. Other parts would be more specific to the needs of the axle. When you say bearing...

    Stanadyne FM 100 units have the ability to add different modules for heater, WIF sensor, water sept., lift pump, etc. What I have been reading they work very well. Here's their PDF showing info, http://www.stanadyne.com/docs/pubf/99795.pdf

    Larry's 1978 K10

    Hey Jerry, if you want to check out the hydroboost setup, this is what the M1010 has so you can see all of what you need to do and how things route and such. Just let me know when you would like to check it out, should you want to. :ylsmoke:

    New Build; 1984 Chevy CUCV M1010 4x4 Ambulance

    Thanks Brian!!! :elkgrin: So trying my hand at Google Sketch Up since it seems the easiest/cheapest 3D software out there (i.e. free). Here is one idea I have been thinking about. The drawing is fairly close to scale but not 100%. I am working with a 109" x 75" floor plan with a height of...

    Daddy's Jeep gettin' some love.

    Agreed with above, if you are not having issue with a D35, run it until you do. At that point swap it for a 8.25. Don't waste the money on the D35. I had a buddy who doesn't carry nearly the gear you will and is really easy on stuff and finally had the case start to spread apart causing the...

    New Build; 1984 Chevy CUCV M1010 4x4 Ambulance

    Well, a little update. I did swap out the glow plugs for new Kennedy Diesel Quick Heat plugs. Not sure if I would run into problems removing the old glow plugs (due to swelling of the tips), I was happy to find all of them came out without any issues. Yay!!! So Lisa and I went to the Del Mar...

    Looks good! Did the fab guy use a tubing bender or pipe bender? Looking at the inside of the bends, my first guess is pipe bender. Either way, looks good.

    Okay, so I have to ask in hopes someone knows. What makes a National Luna fridge worth almost twice the cost of an Engel/ARB/etc. ?
