1985 Chevy m1008 K30 Banks turbo diesel CUCV 4l80 o/d transmission 30k miles 4x4

This truck is all around in very good shape compared to a lot of the m1008s I have seen, nd its got very low mileage (currently under 30000 miles, ut I use this truck so it will keep going up).
I have had this truck for not quite a year, love this old square body trucks, nd it pains me to get rid of this one. I have portable sawmill and use this truck to pull my mill and log trailer, o haul firewood, r whatever other job I need it to do and it has never backed away. There are really only two reasons I am getting rid of this truck, irst off as much as I love these old one ton trucks, hey can really beat you up with their super stiff suspension, ut more than that I am looking to get a backhoe or tractor soon that will tip the scales a close to 14000 lb's and I need a truck that will safely pull that kind of load.

Anyone who has had a 6.2 knows that they can be a dog, specially if its in a one-ton, et alone trying to pull something. You also know if you have ever driven a truck that has 4.56 gears, 6.2, nd a th400 that the engine is screaming just to get up to 55 or 60 mph. This truck however has had a brand new banks turbo diesel installed that has less than 3000 miles on it which helps it tremendously in the power department, t also has a 4l80e transmission with a torque shift stand alone controller behind it. This combination helps tremendously on the highway, t still has all the pulling power you get with 4.56 gears, ut will easily cruise down the highway at 70 mph.
I have probably pulled 10000 pounds, r maybe a little more with this truck, nd apart from running the rpms up bit higher to get the boost and extra power it needs it has never complained about a load. Cruising at 60-70mph it will run 2-3 pounds of boost, ith moderate throttle pressure its goes up to around 5-6, ith a big load up around 10. I have never seen the egt's get higher than 900 degrees, ven when pulling a trailer full of logs.
The steering is pretty tight for a 30 old truck, ou feel comfortable at highway speeds, ut its not like a new pickup. I drove it all last winter without ever plugging it in (I don't think it even has a block heater that I have seen) and while it would start a little hard on a cold day it always started up. 4x4 works well, ut I did notice a while a back that 4 low seems to have a little "tick" sound in it. I virtually never use 4 low, o I've not worried about.
The body does have some rust on it, ut compared to the vast majority of these old square bodies left out there its in very good shape, he worst rust is on the doors and the inner fenders. I have done my best to show this in the photos. This has been a work truck for me, nd the man before ( I am the second owner since purchase from the military) so body has some dents in it, ut due to the flat paint they don't show much in the photos, almost never notice them unless the truck is wet from the rain or something. Again, he worst dent is on the drivers side door, eplacing that door would take care of a lot of the trucks body issue. The underside of the truck body, ed, nd the frame rails are all in really good shape.

Has the dana 60 front and corp 14 with detroit locker in the rear and 4.56 gears.exhaust is brand new, ull 3" with a performance muffler (I don't remember the brand that was used, agnaflow maybe?) from the turbo back.rubber is in great shape, ires have probably 90% tread left.push button glow plugs, nd push button startjust replaced the glow plug relay, nd all the plugs ohm out well except for one which I'll likely replace soon.has newer shocks on it.has a spray in bed liner with lots of nice tie downs.the torque shift controller could probably use some fine tuning (3rd to fourth gear is much firmer than the other shifts) but its never been a bothered me enough to mess with it.has the np208 transfer case, nd shift in and out of 4x4 very easilylocking hubs work as the should.motor leaks a little oil (again 30 year old truck we are talking about here), nd the tranny pan leaks a little as well, check them every few weeks and add some fluid if needed, ts never been a big deal.new batteries within the last year.
heater works but the hot/cold slider is a little stiff.windows all work as they shouldfloor vents work as they shouldhas a brake controller installed and it works as it should9 prong trailer light plug works as it should in the rear.cd player works as it shouldhas a cb, 've never gotten it to work, ut it comes with it.center console won't be included with the truck.has a nice dash coverseat is in pretty good shape, river side has some tears, ut is not totally trashed. passenger side is perfecthas newer carpet installedhas new door pannels to match the rest of the interior.
I have tried to be as thorough as I can, ut if you have any other questions please send me a message and I'll do my best to answer it. If you would like to come see the truck in person you are more than welcome to do so.
