I have an M1009 and had issues similar. Make sure the amps coming from the alt are high enough. I found that 12 and 13 volts weren't where my batteries needed to be...more like 14.45. Check and see if the alt is pulling amps and how much..both when the truck is off and when it is running(if you...

Did some grinding...

Thank you! My daughter does know not to look while I am welding....She also was inside the house for the majrity of it.

No. What happened was...he(we'll call him Dan) sold his jeep to a guy(we'll call him Fred) 1 year ago. Fred then sold the jeep back Dan along with giving him the M1008 because he didn't need it without the jeep. Fred originally had bought the M1008 to replace the axles in the jeep. So here Dan...

The man who sold it to me didn't know too much about the truck. He pretended to but in just the little amount of time I have had my M1009...I knew more than he did. I made it seem like the arctic kit wasn't a big deal.....lol.

Owie!!!! :(

Yes, I asked if I was able to say how much I bought it for because in other forums I have read that there are specific sections for $ talk. So I figured I'd ask.....I paid $1600.

So I bought a 1985 M1008 yesterday. The heaters are still in it and it is still a 24V system. There is wiring for a plow as well as a plow mount. What confuses me is the odometer has 6 digits! Apparently it is stock....so the man said and he claims the 9000 miles are the ONLY miles on it. It...

So I took the taillight off to see what was on the back of the washers...it is a bolt that has been tacked to the washer. Some of them I managed to get out through the hole and some have fallen inside. I then welded the holes....now keep in mind I have never even touched a welder before so don't...

Looks awesome. I like the rubbery type versus the sand paper feel of rhino liner. The type you have will actually clean off...th

Yes the screws are on both sides, almost identical.

I found out what the bolts were for. It is the arctic weather package. What it was is a big blanket type thing that laid over the cap and had a heather under it which ran off of diesel fuel. The swing fire heater is what was in there.

The screws I can loosen but not pull out all the way. The washers that aren't painted down also move but don't come completely off. They do not go all the way through.

So here are the bolts close up. A couple look like they have been cut off to the best of someone's ability. Also, on the tailgate there is a rubbery thing sticking out(photo (2))....Not sure what it was...and where do I find the missing peice in my grill?

I just added one!!! Check the first post! :)

I was told that these bolts held some type of heater or something on the outside of the blazer? It was a military rig and then used by the forest service where they converted it into a 12V and then I got it.

So I am starting on the body work for my M1009 and am wanting to take the millio bolts off that are ALL OVER my body panels! Trying to figure out how to get the washer part of it off without taking the whole panel off so I can access the backside. Maybe I had been serching wrong but I wasn't...

They think my M1009 looks dumpy, compared to their vehicles. I have a 2009 truck and a 2008 solstice....so if I wanted to I could be driving those instead of my blazer. I LOVE MY K5!!!! I have been working on making it run better than it has by fixing the little issues and eventually I will...

Thank you for the cargo/dog gate info! I wanted it for my 3 pitbulls too! The kind of gates you buy from pet stores are too flimsy. They busted through one within a week and now they know they can get through it any time it is up...lol

Love it!
