    I did not get my SF-97: They sent me a title

    The whole Florida title just amkes a mess! It is another piece of paper for some person that has a bad attitude to figure out! *^&$#@ GL says they have to date things as of the sale date of the auction. If they are going to send a title then it needs to be dated when they send it not the auction...

    Texas title

    When the supervisor's supervisor said she could not do anything I got frustrated. I said that I needed someone with common sense. Then when I was upstairs talking to the man with common sense he asked who all I had talked to. Then he asked if they sent me to him. I said no they just said there...

    Texas title

    I got my SF-97 and Florida title in the mail. I went to get my Texas title and registration. I had to go into downtown Houston because I get the disabled veteran plates and in Harris county I have to go downtown. When I give them all my paper work the lady tells me that I have to pay an extra...

    M101A2 What is this?

    Yeah there were two and I really wanted one. When my wife finds out I may be sleeping in it. The euc will take a couple weeks so I have to come up with something.

    M101A2 What is this?

    That one in the theard looks just like mine without the camo and I do not have a tent on top. I did a search but did not find that thread. I know I have seen in other threads but the brakes on the M101A2 I understand will work with the M1009. Do I have do anything or just plug it in?

    Unusual 5 ton

    That looks like a crane and cables on the front. The cables are most likely short for some sort of hook up. Think about lifting your truck. Put a cable on each shackle then on the crane and up, up and away.

    bad customer service

    I think I will buy a fax just to make the loop next time. I scanned mine and e-mailed it. But they are horrible at confirming stuff. I bet I can pick up a used fax cheap just so they can feel some of my frustration.

    M1009 with 15k miles won't start

    The check valve on top of the IP did have junk in it. Cleaned it with carb cleaner and a toothpick. Then changed the fuel filter. I think there is air in the lines. Did not change the fuel pump yet. But will try adding an elec fuel pump to see if it helps.

    m1009 hubs are hot

    If the caliper was dragging replace it! That can be very bad. You should replace the disc too. But you have to replace the caliper when it hangs out. You can push it back and sometimes it will work for a short time but it will not last. You most likely warped the disc with the heat. Stopping is...

    M1009 with 15k miles won't start

    There were too many people around on the 4th I so I will do it today. But n1vbn that sounds like what is going on. How do you clean it?

    5 TON Hater ........

    I had complaints about my two VW buses (they are old VW vans). Because I did not drive them often enough they said they where being stored. I pointed out the registration and inspection but was told they only applied to the street not my driveway. So I parked them on the street. When the...

    m1009 hubs are hot

    The bearings are sneaky. Because if they have grease they tend to not make noise. But if you do not know when they where replaced last then replace them anyway. Then it depends on how much you drive in water. I tend to find water and I have to drive in every puddle like a kid so every break job...

    M1009 with 15k miles won't start

    Well I got the fuel filter for $10, the fuel pump for $20. I will just change them out and bleed any air out. If that does not work then I will shell out for the IP. It starts so there is compression, that only leaves fuel. The funny thing was that two injectors were out when I tried to start...

    m1009 hubs are hot

    Friction. Jack the tire off the ground and spin it. While turning the wheel move around the tire and listen. If it is the brakes you will hear it. Then either rebuild the calipers or just replace them. I always replace in pairs but that is your call. If you do not hear anything then it is where...

    towing civy boat trailer with m1008

    I towed a big boat with my m1009, that's the most you've towed? Just a quick search of "combination ball pintle hitch" I found one at JC Whitney Buyers Products COMBINATION BALL HITCH AND PINTLE HOOKS : JC Whitney: Auto Parts & Accessories I am sure they can be found at many stores too.

    M1009 with 15k miles won't start

    Which pump is the most fun?:roll: I guess you are refering to IP. The fuel pump is not that hard is it?

    HELP! Stranded and won't start.

    It can cause the batteries to charge unevenly. They will not get the same charge which causes premature battery failure. If you disconnect and use two chargers then you know they have the same charge. But you can just use one and check the charge level. DO NOT OVER CHARGE THE BATTERIES it causes...
