First question... does the M1009 have a TH-350?
Mine doesn't have an over-drive like my 87 van and I thought the over-drive meant TH-400.
Second question... What is a good shifting pattern on an medium pedal... not flooring it or trying to race off the line?
The reason I ask is, if I...
Is there anyone with a M1009 that lives in the Seattle area that could do me a favor?
I am having a custome tank built for my WVO system. Frybrid.com is doing the work.
I need someone to drive their M1009 down to Frybrid and let them take measurements. I have done what I can but I am not...
Anyone know the exact way to get the factory ujoints out of the REAR driveshaft?
The new joints come with c-clips but I don't see any on the factory ujoints.
I am replacing my slip yoke and I do see small plastic nubs on the outside of where the ujoint sits...
...maybe a factory thing to...
I replaced the rear seal on the transfer case. When I was looking at the yoke and it has a groove in it where the seal rides.
I though that having the new seal would take up that slack in the yok but I am now leaking a lot of fluid out of the transfer case.
Does anyone have or know where I...
I had to replace the rear seal on my transfer case. What is the bes way to fill the case?
Does anyone have a method they have used that works better that another?
Only thing I can think of is a long hose on a funnel.
Thanks
Did the M1009 or the Civvy Blazer ever come with an auxiliary fuel tank? If so, are they available? Anyone have one they want to get rid of?
Or is there a "factory" spot that one could put an auxiliary tank in?
I have been reading a lot of the older posts on glow plugs and I am still scratching my head.
My M1009 is a complete 12v system (I did not do this conversion)
12v starter, one Alternator, 2 batteries and a manual glow plug button.
I am reading that I want to use the Wellman 070 GPs but when I...
Sorry for all the posts but I am new to the CUCV and I just got my first one.
Last night it was in the 30s and I fired the truck up. It had sat for about one day. It took a while to actually fire and when it did the fast idle was really high.
Is there a way to adjust this down?
Anyone have a detailed tear down of the rear window crank? I found the parts I need (I think) and I need to get it apart enough to replace the crank innards.
I was able to get the glass out and then I stopped as it was going to rain the next day.
Thanks
I did some reading several weeks ago when I was looking for an M1009.
I read a post somewhere that said the air filter housing inlet does not let enough air in. This person showed some pictures of his double stacked filters and "addition" inlet hole and plumbing to the front of the vehicle for...
Hi,
I just got my M1009 yesterday and I have a few questions...
Is there a civilian vehicle that would have the same rims as a M1009? I need a spare.
Anyone know what size tire came on the M1009? My speedo seems to be off a bit
Also, the PO of my M1009 put in a manual button for the glow...
