I see a few of these for sale periodically. Do you have to have a trailer being towed behind you for these vehicles to be stable at road speeds since the wheelbase is so short? Are they heavy on maintenance? And I would guess parts are much tougher to come by than for 2 1/2ton or 5ton vehicles...
Purchased this deuce out of Imperial Beach,CA four or five years ago. Has a fair amount of rusted through surface area above the doors on both sides of vehicle. I am guessing I'll have to cut out the rusted areas with an air cutter. Have read threads here about using Metal fillers but would the...
Pulled my radiator and had it cored. Tech said he cleaned it out but was more work than he thought. My 1985 had 7300mi on it. Before I put the radiator back in I'm thinking I need to clean out the block and heater core. Any suggestions for doing the best, most thorough job before re-assembling...
I'm sure others are aware of it but the AC 60G glow plugs recommended by GM for the civilian engines will not connect to the stock wire socket. They are too wide. Should I go ahead and reduce the width on the glow plug tab and use them or go with another part?
Bought this unit three months ago out of Jefferson City, MO and came with 4300 mi. original. Was driven into the site and fired right up on delivery and has consistently been running/starting fine. Just in last week and a half however it has become harder and harder to fire up. Usually 6-10...
Picked up the unit with approx. 4200 mi., 1985 model last week out of Jefferson City, MO. EUC went to Battle Creek today. Talked my wife into selling our Jeep Liberty and paying down debt with the difference. Winning bid was $1690 and the unit was supposedly started fine on 2/28/2009 and site...
Looking at picking up an M1009. Anyone tell me about life expectancy, specific consistent issues, or how easy it is to add an AC compressor and whatever else is needed. It's hot here in AZ!
Gentlemen,
I'm requesting an SF97 from GL for the unit I picked up in Barstow in Feb. They are requesting the weight of the unit and its GVWR. Anyone know these?
Also, my data plate on the tow bar is completely blank. Anyway to determine the VIN, year and make other than the plate?
Thank you...
Looking at bidding on a trailer at GL. Already bought a deuce last year
It is missing the landing gear. I'd like to pickup a double wheel assy.
Any thoughts on where to find one?
Thanks
