    deuce power steering kit

    Yeah, that's it. Maybe only $50? I do have it on my bobbed deuce with the 16.00's and though not optimal, it does make it easier to park.

    Anyone need A/C?

    I've got an '86 M1009 that has AC. Came from GSA that way. Was up at Mt. Weather, VA Homeland Security and previously at Vint Hill, Va. Looks add on, but has a factory style control head in the dash. Suppose I should take some pics and post them? Still haven't done that.

    Nice truck.

    Newbie here wanting to buy a Deuce . Have questions

    Of course it's cheaper to buy at GL than from a member who's outlayed $, taken the risk of the unknown truck, transported the truck, serviced the truck, etc, etc. My time is not free, nor do I think anyone else's here is. $3k or so for a nice deuce is a steal. M1008's sell for that and...

    EUC cleared, picking up M1009

    If it starts and runs, fluids first. All of them, including filters. Engine oil, 15w40 Both differentials, spend the $ for Mobil1 synthetic transfer case, again synthetic anti freeze flush trans fluid, including filter. (I prefer to flush also). power steering/hydroboost fluid brake fluid...

    A successful recovery

    So how was Sarah and her helpers? She's always been very helpful. I'm going to see her next week to pick up an M1008 w/plow and a M1009. You didn't happen to see the plow truck did you?

    M35A2 speed boost

    Would work, but to re-gear 3 diff's would be more than the truck is worth.

    Inspection at Marietta, GA Please?

    If anyone is close to the Marietta, GA GL site, or is going there, I certainly could use to have a Deuce that I won looked at. EUC is in process and I'd like to know if it'll run or not, and what the general condition is. It looks like I'm going to have it shipped (unless someone wants to make...

    Bad Trucking Company - Warning

    That's no too bad. They quoted me $1100 and change for this M813 move of 193 miles, NJ to VA - seemed a little steep.

    to Flush or not to Flush -- that's the question

    Agreed on the reputable shop thing. As to the knocking stuff out of the filter, that would only happen if the shop were to REVERSE flush the fluid, and I don't know how that could be done? Good transmission flush machines will empty all the fluid you put into them - meaning that if you must...

    to Flush or not to Flush -- that's the question

    So, I own an auto repair shop and this question comes up often. How many miles are on the M1009 now? What is the fluid condition? Red & sweet smelling? Brown and burnt smelling? Black? We flush hundreds of transmissions per year and I can't remember the last time one shifted worse after the...

    Bad Trucking Company - Warning

    I tried Good Trucking as suggested - and they were responsive, but honestly pretty pricey. Now if I just had somewhere to park this 5-ton.....
