CUCV M1028 Project Part 8 - Body Snatcher 2: Build Back Better

- Part 2 of a 2-part episode - In this episode we're going rejuvenate the front end of this military K30/D30 squarebody pick up truck using all of the SNATCHED body parts! We'll remove and replace the entire heating and blower motor assembly but not before restoring that firewall. We'll get everything wired and connected back up so we can replace the outer and inner fenders (How to replace Squarebody inner and outer fenders)..
Stick around and see if that fuel pump change gives us any grief.
Get the glow plug wire adapters here: store.rocknus....
I got that nifty new grill here: www.cjponypart...
The insulator pad came from LMC Truck.
The fender bolts also came from LMC Truck - Part #30-1104
I find most of my used and/or NOS Squarebody parts from the largest Squarebody buy/sell page on Facebook, which I also happen to run: / squarebodysell
When I'm looking for CUCV specific used or NOS parts, I go to my other Facebook group, GM CUCV Trucks and Parts For Sale: / 1533619073697842
I wonder what one of these trucks would be like with a ZF 6 speed manual transmission or maybe a 6L80 automatic transmission.
It would definitely have more top speed and be way more pleasant on the highway, but I personally wouldn't mess with the drivetrain on one of these. It may not go fast, but for an engine that really doesn't have that much horse power, geared up the way it is it'll still pull a house down!
Ha! Fuck yeah bud, looks great! Love the paint work. Working in a similar, also previously government vehicle, I own a 1985 c20 Suburban that was a dnr/ forest service vehicle. Love it. Runs like garbage, getting a new injection pump tomorrow. Keep the vids coming! Love the help it gives me on my way to getting mine done.
Great video men, is the 6.2 diesel rebuild coming anytime soon?
Thank you, Ignacio. All I can say about the rebuild video is that it is coming. Things keep popping up to distract me from it! ;)
Great content! Always enjoy watching.
Thanks for watching and leaving a note, Mike!
Fitting up my truck, I cant get the headlight to stay in never realise as you've shown I'm missing the hooks, I have no idea what they look like to see if it's there among stuff. Your video did not show the hook I'm its entirety, describe it for me please.
Hello any progress on the part 3 engine rebuild?
Who sells the horizontal grille trims
Looking good! Just bought my 1st M1008 and loving it. Wondering when the next video is?
Hi WGuy. Congrats on the M1008. You'll love it (then hate it, then love it...) LOL. Next video is up now. I've been distracted by the actual business and that kept me away from the fun RUclips stuff. Been clawing back my free time slowly though so hope to put a bunch more vids up soon. Thanks for watching and taking time to comment.
