The "DW" that has been discussed on this site has been where the front tires on the Dana 60 only (not the M1009) have been moving left to right and not up & down. However, when the tires do go Left to Right your front end will most definately move up and down. I have had this on 3-4 of the D60...

My M1009 has same heater as yours. You should have a 110v plug in cord. I have never used or had to use it due to it never gets cold enough to need it. It gets down to mid to low teens a few times but my M1009 glow plugs works like it should (maybe sometimes I may have to cycle it twice). I have...

Bill, I just sent you a PM. I have all parts you need as PM states. Just let me know. Smokey

If you will PM me, I can most likely come up with what you need. Smokey

I removed the resistor on firewall when I converted mine to the pushbutton manuel GP. I still have 24v starter. It don't affect using the slave cables at all if you leave your batteries hooked up like normal for 24v. It's been this way for 3 years and have not had any premature battery failure...

First I heard of a "de-tuned" 6.5L. Are the engines in ? 6.2 or 6.5L? You can ID which ones they are by looking at the front on the pass side of block where the head bolts to. It will have stamped 6.2 L on the flat area of the block. If it is a 6.5L, it will not have anything stamped in that...

Harbor Freight has a universal mounting plate for abt. $40 bucks.

It's the 6.5 w/turbo

To MKCOEN: I agree with you whole heartily. This guy was just trying to pass on some information that could very well help out many on this site, then along comes MR "JONES who don't seem to be a "administrator", "moderator" or any other kind of "ator" except for maybe "agitator". It's become...

Gimpy, I see where you say $ 39.00 is too much for the adaptor for the 1-pin to 2-pin type. Okay, there where can anyone buy this adaptor cheaper (web site & cost) ???

If you will click on the link that "runk" has above, you will see that they offer an adaptor that has the 1-pin on one side & the 2-pin on the other. You can plug the std NATO 1-pin end into your slave cable then you can plug your slave cable into the 2-pin earlier versions. They told me costs...

REF these slave cables, I made a set for myself using the single pin version and I got the ends off of some Roto Impact tools that were not working and used 20ft #1 welding cable. However, we are having a MV show at Pickens SC this weekend with about 40 MV there. I took 4 vehicles up there and...

The Banks Turbo makes a world of difference in the 6.2. I have two setup on two M1028 me & my son drives and it makes a positive difference like day & night ESPECIALLY when you are pulling a trailer with a load. I am thing about putting the other "Banks" I have on the M1009 that I drive. For...

To SPC-Romaine,,,, Hope you get up to Pickens. They are going to have about 40 vechicles I understand. I have a M1010 amb., M1031 maint truck w/generator, M1009 blazer and my son's M35 that he converted the bed to make it "DUMP". If you know kinda when you will be there, I would like to meet you...

Thanks to abt 5 or 6 of you guys that were kind enough to try to help or start this guy in the correct direction. I understand that that's what this great site was started for 1) to help one another that has MV vehicles and the ones that are maybe considering getting one. 2) The other was to...
