Good evening,
I'm not in the habit of doing this often and rarely go off road anymore, but could anyone help this.
Over the years I've noticed that when under load my m1009 sometimes feels like it just stalls out and wont put power to the wheels.
Most recently I felt like just popping over a curb. From a dead stop, flush against the curb the blazer couldn't even push itself up and over. The motor wouldn't rev up and it was as if the trans just stalled out and would not put any power out. Even in 4wd. Couldn't go over a curb from a dead stop. I had to put it in low range. I had noticed this years earlier while driving off road on steep incline. Just could push it self up.
These trucks aren't that weak and the gearing so high that this is normal right?
Bc I do not find myself experiencing this often I've never bothered to look into it. What gives? The truck is otherwise healthy and I'm running 33's.
