And while still being reasonably strong to protect in the event of the accidental rolls and falls of every day...

    Bikini on a CUCV

    I know it is an old post, but it is the most recently updated that I have come across so for. So I will bear the burden of guilt for resurrecting the troll. Did this cage go into the front of the cab? I would love some pics of it did. I want to build a front to back cage for my 86 M1009 but...

    Thanks bobcat. Yea, electricity bites hard. AS a seahawk mech a have all the basic skills to work on most things. I just have to learn all the intricacies of diesel and M1009 worlds. I would not call myself a MV collector. This will probably be the only one I ever own. I just have always loved...

    Hi SS. It's Mike in corona. I have been lurking for a week. I seen this place referenced in other places and even came across some threads in search results. I am buying an 86 M1009 from a guy a few hours east of me. He may or may not be on here I don't know. She has a mild suspension and BIG...
