    headlights. no low beam but hi beam works??

    RE: no click or non functioning switch - something else to check: The hi/lo and ignition switches can be adjusted slightly, maybe the screws came loose and its pushed to far down the column to "click". Loosen the screws ( 8mm hex head ) and adjust. If not, other posters covered the basics.

    No Need to EVER use a title service!!!

    You did this without a Vermont address? I have a '97 suburban with a Florida Certificate of Destruction, but the truck is barely damaged. If I could get a Vermont title and tags, the truck could live again!

    deuce stall

    BFR - I know this is an OLD thread, but what fixed your problem. I have a M35A2 with similar issues. High rpm, push in clutch, and rpms drop low (200-300) and sometimes it stalls. If it doesnt stall, the RPM will go back to idle (800rpm or so on this truck). The truck will idle and drive under...

    Redi-Sleave - Transfer case output

    I hate to revive old threads, but where can the "cross reference" be found these days? If anyone has a copy, I'd be grateful for it. I have only seen the filter and gasket cross reference material.

    Help with rear main seal

    Per the TM, CAUTION Contact points of rear main seal halves (5 and 6) should be at 4 o’clock and 10 o’clock positions or 8 o’clock and 2 o’clock positions. Failure to follow this caution may result in oil leakage and damage to rear main seal. Also, it does call for Anaerobic sealer, not RTV...

    The end of my Death-Wobble!

    Are you planning to replace just the springs or all the parts? Looks like something else I need to think about replacing...

    M1009 rusted front roof corner

    Today's update.

    M1009 rusted front roof corner

    Good advice, I may do the same. As for why they rust here, I suspect the seam in the drip rail allows moisture into the corner and the whole area above and along the door opening. The seams on my drip rails need to be resealed; as well there are a few small holes along the seam I need to...

    M1009 rusted front roof corner

    A few more, looking at these I do think 3" more than where I drew my line would be perfect. I am certainly not a master welder, so this will be challenging to say the least.

    M1009 rusted front roof corner

    I used a sharpie to trace my intended work area. I'd like about 3" more than pictured along the windshield side to be safe, trailing down to 2-3" more on the door side. [thumbzup]

    M1009 rusted front roof corner

    I'll take a few photos with a ruler and some markings to give you a better idea. Thanks. His build thread is my inspiration!

    M1009 rusted front roof corner

    So I decided to fix a little rust problem on one of my M1009s. Ugh! Any advice for this repair? Anyone have a donor front roof corner? The bondo is not my handiwork. I found it like this once I started sanding.

    tilt steering

    No, in fact now that I recall the one from the 'burb is sitting in storage and the one in my truck came from a '87 parts truck (gas) I bought from Aboonski.

    tilt steering

    Plug and play. I have one in a M1009. Came from a late 80s diesel 'burb.

    Truck shutting off after driving/ return valve?

    Well I think congrats are in order. Glad you got it running before torching it in an alley! :beer:

    Why GL Deuces have no Brakes

    This is an interesting thread as I just dealt with a leaking wheel cylinder on a M109A3 (see avatar). The trucks sits unused most of the time and the front passenger side started leaking. I tore it down and rebuilt using a new star kit (Odiron) with the proper springs. The spring in the unit was...
