    I did it again .....

    Well, dispite my issues with GL (still battling them on getting an SF97 for my deuce), I picked up another M1009 CUCV and a M101A1 trailer yesterday. The truck is out of FL, so maybe with the luck that FL folks have gotten with getting SF97's on non-SF97 auctions, maybe that will continue with...

    Came across this beauty .....

    Heh - well, I am sure someone, somewhere would appreciate this old Green Iron. I came across it while driving through some new housing developments in my area. M35A2C - not sure of the year though ... I guess pre '69, as it appears to have at one time had a soft top. I am not sure about the...

    What type of Turbo is this?

    I know the pics maybe hard to tell exactly, but I would like to know what Turbo this is. This is on the M109A3 I purchased from GL. The engine is a Hercules LDT-465. All I have to go by is the pictures right now ... I haven't seen the truck in person yet. Any ideas? Thanks all, -graham

    New owner of a M109A3!

    Hi all! I know it's not the conventional looking Duece, but I think it's pretty cool and unique. I purchased one of the M109A3's that GL had up that closed yesterday. http://cgi.govliquidation.com/auction/view?id=904233 Mangus will be heading that way to pick up another auction, so maybe I...

    While on the Hyrdaboost subject ...

    I know you can't use the M1008's hyrdaboost on the M1009 Blazer, however will a unit from a civvy blazer (of the same year) work?

    So what's the next big repair/upgrade on your CUCV?

    Luckily mine is running pretty good at the moment. Drove to and from Atlanta to Aberdeen with no major issues. My hydraboost it leaking p/s fluid on the floor boards. Its on the repair list. However, I think my next big upgrade I will want to do is put in an overdrive tranny 700R4. Big...

    baby's got new shoes .....

    New tires where on the list for my trip to Abredeen. So I figured new SuperSwampers would do the trick! -graham http://m1009.com/

    What axle gear oil to use?

    Ok, so I need to change out the gear oil in these axles. For the stock M1009, what gear oil do I need to use? 80/90 weight ? Same for the front and rears? Thanks! -graham

    31.5 volts!

    Checking out the volts output of the truck while it's running, I am getting a total putput of 31.5 at the 24v block. 17 volts at the back battery, 14.5 at the front. 17 sounds kinda high, right? I was thinking of seeing around 14.5 on each, thus producing around 29v at the 24v block, but not...

    GL's SF97 Title paper in Georgia

    All, So has anyone had any experience on titling your CUCV in Georgia, particularly one purchased from GL? I got my SF97 letter today from them, but I am thinking this maybe a 'small hassle' waiting for me at the DMV? Thoughts? -graham

    Need Starting/Charging parts

    I thought I would check here first before trying elsewhere (junkyards, eBay, local parts store). I just recently bought an 86 M1009 and it was stripped of both Alternators, batteries and the Starter. I believe it was a clean removal as I can account for most of the wiring. So I am looking...
