How much is it? I am in KC.

My 1986 1009 will run on after the key is turned off. IP leaks a little diesel in valley and it has to be parked nose down or it will drain fuel back to tank and is hard to start.

Thanks guys, I will put it on the lift and dig in this weekend. If it is the ring gear I am taking it to my tranny guy to have a new flexplate put on. Will post the ultimate resolution. Rob

1986 CUCV M1009, modified with pushbutton for glow plugs. I was trying to start it and the starter stopped engaging the ring gear. It does spin up very nicely just no rotation to motor. Thoughts? I suspect the Solenoid. Does anyone have a part number that a parts store would recognize? The...

Hey all, I already put in a block heater on one of my CUCVs and am really impressed with the results. Now are there any cautionary notes you guys have on these... I went with the one that replaces a freeze plug. I have already upgraded to silicone hoses. It keeps the block at about 105F in...

Mangus, I will try to get pics for you tonight.

I just put 33x12.50x15s on one of my M1009s no clearance issues exept the pittman arm rubs slightly at extreme RH lock. I just keep that in mind. There is plenty of clearance even at medium articulation.

Both mine work fine.
