Remove the rear 10 bolts differential cover. Turn the ring gear and you will find a 5/16" headed bolt running horizontal thru the center carrier. Remove that bolt. The pin will slide out. You must remove that pin and push the axles in and get the C clips out. Good Luck. I never remove the...

Today was very windy here in Jonestown. I feared working outside in the wind. I need to get my M1009 out in the daylight to scrub the floor and begin assembling the interior trim. I can't rush this task. I want the complete project to reflect my efforts. I can do fast work if needed. but no need...

While you are in there examine the brakes and E brake cables. taking the drums off an m1008 is not something I like doing. It basically is a big heavy drum and I replace the inner seals every time I remove a drum from one of these CUCV's. Also spend the few dollars more for the metal axle flange...

Good Deal Miah. Doing it right the first time prevents rework on the same part for a long time. Be Safe.

Beating the drum loose on an M1009 will not create an axle seal leak. I would think the leak is the wheel cylinder. But I would question the wrong width brake shoes creating a bad and forth action in the free play in the axle. On these old vehicles I would advise anyone changing rear brakes to...

I am writing this post to ask the people that have parts ordered from me to please be patient. I have attempted to make it to the shipper and each time the line was long. The social distance orders are in effect and the shipper is also a hardware store that Ace offers curbside order filling. It...

Front shocks are attached with 1/2" Bolts. The upper studs on the rear are 1/2" also. The lower rear eye bolts are 9/16" bolts. You use a 13/16" on the bolt and a 7/8" on the nut. Good Luck. Off the top of my head I don't remember the length. Take and old one with you. Also get some SAE washers...

You ever have one of them days when everything just goes bad. Today was one of them days. We had winds like a tornado and then it rained and now the winds have kicked up again. In the name of safety and rest time I went out and opened my doors and the winds were beating the doors off the barn. I...

Not sure if something like this would help you out with the issues you have. I have many of them. Brand new and had them for years. I use the inline fuse holders and throw the rest away. Wasteful but I am not an electrician. Sweet deal on these relays. If it says "Song Chaun" it has to be good...

How about a picture of this wire? It may have been added. It does not sound familiar to me.

Reach up under there and disconnect the speedometer cable from the back of the speedometer. You should be able to pull the cable out of the cable housing. Clean and grease the cable with cable lubricant. I guess it is possible that transfer case ATF is traveling up the cable. Check how full the...

Replace it. The replacement comes with a Lifetime Warranty.

As I was searching for parts and handing them down to the Wife. I told her I was done shopping for the night and she should ring me up. She delivered the parts in the Rick Zone carrier. Nice. M1009 Seatbelts that have a useable retractor button are getting hard to come by. Most the UV has...

Tonight I went out and searched my barn and sheds for a decent donor passengers seat bottom cushion. Remember these trucks are very old I have had parts stored for 25 years and some are not as nice as others. Others are nice just plain filthy. Rub-a-dub-dub. I think it will clean up just fine...

Injection pump is a piece of cake. No Fear.

W5ood Looking at your fuse box it appears to have some issues. I am not the top notch electrician. I know enough to keep my out of trouble. But the big melted area on the midway right side served as the 30 amp lighting fuse. Yours is missing. Is the leg to the fuse still hot? Check that out. I...

Good news. I have a guy wanting me to do a conversion. he wants the M1009 Mule conversion. I don't have the heart to tell him the price, parts and labor involved. I done it on my own time like cutting wood or mowing grass. I never gave it any thought as to the time and material needed. Glad to...

Still looking great. Thank you. I hope it runs as great as it did when I sold it to you. That was always a top running machine. Very reliable. Be Safe.

Basically the new replacement inner fender aprons are all imports. They have a wash primer only. They will rust thru in 2 years in the northeast if they are not properly coated. I scuff mine and prime them with a sealing primer. I prefer black primer on these. I use a rustproofing undercoating...

I knew that. I just seen schematics of HMMWV engines in another post on this thread.
