I would recommend, getting new O rings... they did run about $5 each on the net... and during installation, ensure O ring stays in groove.... it kinda tricky if your not familar with them... one more note, Now, this isnt required, but will save you alot of time, sweat, and bloody...

Looks 10-8 double tuff Gary.... Good job!...

GreggVA.. I think you are on the right track.... if the cables, and connections are good, and both batteries are fully charged, and still get the.....rah-rum....pause....rah-rum...pause... I would look to getting another starter, and than have the existing one rebuild and keep as a spare....

Swapped out a dead battery..... installed some "new" to me sport buckets... added power tracs to both front.... If i knew how to do seat covers... i would have added lumber and heat.... pics to follow in build thread... as soon as i can find my phone....

have you checked the steering stablizer? ( looks like a shock running hortizal on front axle....) ( i know it came on the M1008's.... cant remember if the 09's had em... my 09 has 08 axles....)

Sorry... dont have any pics... but no special tools are required.... If memory is correct... I dont know the exact size, but its like 2 1/4" or 7mm nuts.. apply some tape to rod... unplug harness... install new.... its really simple...

Like Kingchr said... VERY easy fix... the only thing i would add would be to apply some tape to HIgh/Low beam rod, as so it wont fall out... it will be a pain to put back in... replace switch.. the bolt holes are slotted for adjustment, just ensure you test it to ensure it works...

i would check/replace the rest of your steering components, tie rod ends, Drag link, etc. as over time these parts do wear down, unless you have changed them out already, When i first got mine, it had same issues, done a complete rebuild of those parts... it worked like new afterwards....

Its one i picked up from Summit... Part number is ATM-2697 I got it only because it matched in size and design with the rest of my gauges.... In order for it to work, i also had to get a signal convertor from Dakota Digital... there are several threads on here that discusses tach options...

Asmoday.. you are correct... there are 2 ways to go to install the 4L80. One would be getting a stand alone computer. It can be had for around $600 and up... however you will also have to fab up a throttle position sensor, and a speed sensor in order for it to shift/work correctly... 2nd...

I think your on the right path... but..... Speaking from experience, running H1's, 37's and 4.56 gears, you will not want to run long term down the highway at those speeds.. It really begs for another gear... IMHO... Adding a gear vendor OD or swapping to a 4L80 will get you where you want...

??? When my 1 ton swap was done, i just reused the 09 MC... never have had issues with it... i would put the original back on.. and try it, before going through the headache and expense of changing lines and fittings....

What kind of switch and relay did you use for these, while running 24v to it?

anybody know if the calipers and rotors from a 2 wheel drive 3/4 ton truck will work? I already have ORD brackets, just need those parts to do mod....

careful dunegoon....... Some people are going to hate you...... lol.... I'm one of them.... hahahha... Good find and score!:beer:

These are simple 12v toggle switches and red covers I got separately , I picked up both at Oreily's

Thanks Green Machine! Rub it in why don't ya.....aua lol...

I would go with #1 Also, you would want to confirm if it was from a 6.5L, If not the torque converter will do you no good.. and you would have to get one that's made for 6.5L diesel... Maybe able to get it a little cheaper... if you know what I mean....;)

yeah.... the GV are.... kinda pricey... but you can find deals with used ones on... fleabay... Just reuse your TC adapter... it will bolt up.. only thing is.. you will have to have the outer ring of your TC adapter, facing the 4l80 , cut like .060 of an inch that's what i'm going to...

Now with gear vendors... its basically an external OD unit... and it comes with it own controller.. it gives you the ability for auto or manual shifting.. how it works, is it reads your speed and gear ratio and kind a works like a transfer case... meaning... When you are at a stand still at...
