Hey cucvrus, Thank you! That would be great. Can you show me both? Greetz from Germany Sebastian!

Hi folks. Has anyone the original M1009 "RPO code decal" in the glovebox? I need only a picture from the decal. Mine is gone and I want to repro it. Can´t find one in the world wide web! Thanks! Greetz from Germany Sebastian! :beer:

Hi. Yes, it has the 6-bolt mounting. Thanks a lot. I´ll order it, when the tranny gets back into the frame. Greetz from Germany Sebastian!

Hey folks! Can I use the Hughes "Full Miser" torque converter (1000-1200 stall) in my tranny? (TH400 / 6.2 Diesel) More cruisin. No towing. I´m searchin for a good and new converter. The tranny and engine will be getting a completely reman-job! Any experiences with this setup? Thanks a...

The best way to find the leak: Wash all the dirt, grease and lubricant away. Take a good cleaning solvent. (I am using "motorcycle-cleaner") Let the truck time for drying. Then drive a few miles, and watch where it´s come from! Good luck!

I don´t know if it´s the same, .... but I´m using "motor-cycle-cleaner" for cleaning those things. There were many engine compartments that I have switched to a "new like" look with this. Spray it on the cold surfaces, wait 30 minutes, and use a steam cleaner to wash all the dirt down. Awesome...

Frame off! :mrgreen:

Hi! This forum is awesome! :hammer: Cool research! I need the difference of the hight from the cabmountbrackets. The plan is, to use a mainbar of squaretube and slip four cabmountbars on it. (variable). So I can take off the body, pull out the chassis and put the body directly on the...

Hi and thank you for your search! I mean the "model number" on the left side of the chart! Is it the K105? I need this for building a holder for the bodyshell in my rotisserie.

Hi. I´m searching for the GM-frame number of my 83/84 M1009. I need this for the restauration process! The following chart is a screenshot from my ´83 shop manual Thanks!!! :grin: Greetz from Germany! Sebastian!

Thanks @ all! I'll put it in a srorage box for the future. Everything comes and goes with that truck. :D

Hi! Thanks @ all! I´ve every original (not used) part saved in sealed boxes for the future. My rule: "Every part comes, and goes with that truck!" So it can be reinstalled at any time. I close the holes with a plug, or I weld in a piece of sheetmetal. I wrap the loose connector to the...

A HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! Can I remove the complete diag-harness (big plug under the dash) without any trouble with the rest of the electric? The connector is outside under the glowplug-resistor at the firewall. Can I disconnect it? The truck is nearly complete teared down for a frame-off-resto! So...

Hi, I´ve found a pic from an older Series convertible K5 on goooo.... (before 76). But I am not shure, if these bodys are smilar to my 83! The only way to find this point out is, to construct a variable high into the carrier-frame. When I can turn around the metal monster with my little...
