Good to meet you Russ, it is good to know that there are friends close by. If you ever need anything feel free to pm me as well. :beer:

Actually there are more members up north than down south, even though I have spotted two M1009's here in Valdosta.:confused: :beer:

Thank you CJ for the welcome, I always feel welcomed when I get on SS! And if you ever come down my way remember you have a friend here as well. Good day to you too:beer:

Anyone here from the Valdosta,GA area? So far I have seen two M1009's, one is camo the other is not. I spotted the camo one at Moody AFB and the other as I was driving around town. Just looking to make friends in my area. Cheers:beer:

Your truck looks good, you did a great job. My M1009 has the same color as yours, I bought it that way but mine it does not look as good as yours. :( :beer:

I myself use copper tubbing with my mechanical oil gauge for now, until I can afford decent electrical gauges this is my set up for now, Cheers :beer:

Welcome to SS, I am in Valdosta Ga. I've seen at least two M1009's here in my area but that is about it. Enjoy the forum there is a lot of good people here willing to help you and the knowledge is abundant. Cheers:beer:

I am glad to hear you made it home and that you don't have a injection problem it would sure cost more than the flexplate. as for the flex plate the part number I gave you is the correct one for the non emissions J code 6.2 that you have under your hood and NO it is not discontinued. I ordered...
