    Bad Ground?

    Clean all grounds and connections after disconnecting the batteries. I'd give you 50/50 odds that would fix it.

    M1009 Tie Rod End Replacement Project

    Hey OD Fever do you have a Dana 60 in your blazer or a corporate 10 bolt? Your first post has some contradicting info on that.

    M1009 Tie rod bar conversion using dana 60 parts

    Am I missing something? He says he is working on a Dana 60 axle in this thread. I still have the corporate 10b in mine.

    Ok is this little yellow tube the vent tube? if so, how would I check it and clean it? Does it come off? Also wondering if it is supposed to only be 3 inches long. f?

    M1009 Transmission Barfed from Dipstick

    Thank you. I called two trans shops yesterday and both told me it was because it got too hot and it wasn't another problem. I'm going to print this list and get this checked out.

    M1009 Tie rod bar conversion using dana 60 parts

    Still hoping someone can chime in with an aftermarket option for me. The local salvage guys are pretty bad around here. The GM part number returns nothing 14026804.

    M1009 Transmission Barfed from Dipstick

    Well it is a M1009 with stock gears. Which is almost like being in high range. I spoke to a transmission specialist today and he said its because it got hot. He said the TH400 is infamous for it. I asked him twice if its a possible sign of a deeper issue and he said no, its just too hot.

    M1009 Transmission Barfed from Dipstick

    Dang. I'd be happy to add a cooler but I'd really like to know if this is a symptom of a larger issue.

    M1009 Tie rod bar conversion using dana 60 parts

    yeah I know but the axels I had my hands on are looking like they won't be a cost effective acquisition. So who knows how long it'll take me to find the next set!

    M1009 Tie rod bar conversion using dana 60 parts

    I'm also making sure this is for the 10 bolt front axle? I have not done a one ton swap yet.

    excellent thank you. Do you know if these are quality parts I can rely on?

    M1009 Tie rod bar conversion using dana 60 parts

    I'm hoping to find an aftermarket replacement part and some advice from others based on their experiences.

    M1009 Transmission Barfed from Dipstick

    Seems like a good idea. Can you tell me how to plumb it?maybe post some pics? That would be a great help thanks

    M1009 Tie rod bar conversion using dana 60 parts

    So is that a tie rod or a drag link?

    M1009 Transmission Barfed from Dipstick

    Yikes that sounds scary. How do I tell if the remaining fluid is good? Just the smell?

    M1009 Transmission Barfed from Dipstick

    I went on a nice little 4x4 trip yesterday and while I was on a semi steep incline in a pretty precarious position about .5-1 quart of trans fluid barfed out of the dipstick tube. Please weigh in on this and let me know what you think would cause this.

    M1009 Tie rod bar conversion using dana 60 parts

    Well I think I'm calling it by the correct name but its the long bar that goes between the tires. This pic isn't my truck but the red part is the part I bent.

    M1009 Tie rod bar conversion using dana 60 parts

    Went on a little 4x4 trip today and bent my drag link (tie rod.) Are there any nice aftermarket replacements?
