I should have said I have been looking for both. I can't find one period, even at the somewhat local rust free parts dealers. I am at the point of paying for shipping if someone is willing. I could buy all the new parts from lmc but I don't want to put all that money into a rusty gate. I did...
I didn't find the site until searching for answers to my problem. Our local Napa has a lifetime gaurentee on everything they sell. And for some credit I did get the right alternators, it was the disgrutled workers at Wilson that made me pay for them being upset at their bosses. Makes sense to...
The new alternators from Wilson are in the truck and charging the batteries but my gen 2 light is on now. It seems to be an alternator issue still making the light come on. I took it in to get bench tested and they say it's fine. I put my old alt in and have no light. For now, at least it is...
I always try real hard to buy products made in usa and have always purchased shakles made in usa from a website. They don't have the specific measurements that the cucv has so I'm shopping for an original. The guy that sold me the truck had all 4 on in the pic and is one of the questions I...
Bulbs are on my to do list too. The only one working on mine is the shift indicator light and the indicator stays on park, lol. Maybe this weekend. Looks nice.
In my experience with a chevy trans it seems to be an 1/8 th inch above the add line for tranny fluid when cold. You won't be able to check it hot until it's been driven. I assume your linkage is all ok? As in you can hear it clicking into the gears? My buddy had a blazer he called me over...
Just replaced both alts and now my gen 2 light is on all the time. I took it back off and had it bench tested and they say it's ok. Fusable links are ok. The battery seems to be staying charged and my volt gauge is proper. Does anyone know if the diode in the wire diagram in the tm for alt 2...
Wow, that is scary. The only time I saw that happen was when we robed the guts out of the rear and tried to pull it out of the driveway with a towstrap, same result. Glad it was at a slower speed.
Seems like this problem will never end. I used the one non isolated alternator on the drivers side to get it running and the gen 1 light came on and after some miles my front battery died again. Now the new alts came in that are isolated and the gen 1 light is off, my lights are brighter and...
I've noticed a few m1009's driving around so I may have seen you guys. I know there is a guy in Perry with a M1009 and M1008 right off 52. Wonder if they are a ss member?
