    Cucv m1009 won't start....Electrical?

I had to stencil out a piece of sheet metal and tac weld in place then grind the welds to smooth the surfaces of the weld. I then coated the fender well with herculiner. The red paint you see in the picture...

    Who has attached a snowplow to their M1009.?

    Very nice! Thanks for the help /advice. I'm trying to find a used one for cheap up here in Maine but I may break down and go to one of the plow distributors around the area. If I can find a fisher mount I can get a plow from a friend

    M1008 Hurculiner Floor Board

    I'm actually doing it this weekend, just wear some good rubber gloves and a cheap face mask and you'll be fine , I'm doing from the tail gate all the way to the dash . Make sure you clean the surface and tape anything you don't want painted. Let me know how yours turns out! I have a 1009 btw

    They are easily installed in between the window seal and glass. There is a tension screw to adjust per your windows.
