Well I conquered the dreaded fuel pump job today. After reading many posts and PMing with a couple experts I felt I was armed with all the information I would need to make this job a success. That turned out to not be entirely true, there was one piece of information that could have saved me a...
Belt Wiki Inconsistency
So in preparation of replacing my belts I've been researching, and when I compare the numbers on the wiki I'm getting mixed results.
The dayco and gates numbers don't seem to cross reference.

Hi I'm looking for help identifying this trailer. It sits abandoned in a piece of property and, before I knock on their door, I'd like to arm myself with knowledge. I'd also be curious to know what you guys think I should offer for it if I choose to do so.
Any things I should look for when...
HI All,
I've been absorbing a ton from this great forum on my new truck so I thought I'd contribute.
I have two little kids that like to ride in my new M1009 and, when we leave grandma's house after dinner at 8pm it is DARK in the cab. Trying to strap in the kiddos in the dark, I quickly...
HI guys,
When I bought my M1009 it was sans rear window glass. The regulator was there but the sash, setting rubber, glass, and cam channels were all gone. I've managed to accumulate all the necessary parts and I'm in the process of installing everything, which is going well, except for one...
Hello again!
I've been searching and reading past posts about replacement front seat possibilities for my M1009. There seems to be varying success using camaro, cavalier, monte carlo, s10, jimmy, tahoe, and suburban seats. Some, if not most, of these seat swaps require re-using the existing...
Hi guys
Ive been searching for a fire extinguisher that fits in the existing mount in my m1009. Hoping someone can give me brand, model, link, etc to something that is known to fit properly. Thank you for your help.
I found a rear bench seat on Craigslist that was an upgrade from the original red bench In my m1009. Is there any intrinsic value or reasons to keep the old red one? I don't have a lot of storage space around here so I'd prefer to sell it off if there's no reason to keep it with the truck.
HI,
I just got done searching and I can't find something that strikes me as a similar issue so I figured I would post.
My voltmeter reads dead center most of the time when the engine is running. The rest of the time, it reads in the green right where that little white tick mark is. There...
I recently bought a clevis here on the classifieds to replace my missing 4th clevis on my M1009. It arrived in the mail today and it won't fit on my truck! Do these things come in different sizes? The guy I bought it from says it came from another m1009. It's easily 3/4'' narrower than my other...
Hi
so my m1009 came with no rear window and I'm currently scouring craigslist for a replacement. Can anyone tell me which year Blazers have glass that will fit my 1986? Does suburban glass fit with the electric motor?

Hi
im new to the scene.
Item #1
When I was working on my m1009 today I noticed this cut cable coming out from under this black shroud. Can someone help me understand what it is? (Pic attached)
Hi
So, as many others have fallen to the sirens song before I'm sure, I was cruising craigslist and spotted a sweet looking blazer with a bitchin paint job. Fast forward two days and I'm a new member of this site trying to learn about my new toy.
Its an 86 with 10K miles and it seems to run...
