Sorry, no pics :) Took a two hour trip (4 hours rount trip) this weekend. This was the first long trip with the deuce, so I was interested to see how it went. She ran great on the highway. Once the engine and tires were warm, I was humming at 55 mph and staying above 50 on the hills. Seems...

Okay, so I jumped the gun on the M1009 I just picked up. I really don't have the time for it and (the wife says) I need to work on finishing the basement. Anyway, my OD sickness is your gain. 1985 M1009. It's a pretty solid truck, but needs a few things: - front tranny seal - a couple...

Hey, I've got the long battery cables and junction block that mounts near the rear seat off of my M1009. If anybody wants them, they're yours. $20+shipping. PM me if interested.

Hey guys, I'm waiting on my classified ad to be approved, but I just wanted to give everyone a heads up that I have 1971 General Products M35A2 w/winch for sale in the Kansas City, MO area. I will update this post with the classified ad link when it gets approved. Here is the craigslist...

I need to replace the "front seal" on the tranny on my new M1009. It is leaking fluid all over and the PO claims that the "front seal" needs replaced. Does this sound right? What's the actual part name? Also, while I have it apart, should I go ahead and replace the rear main seal, or just...

So, I finally got an M1009 and, of course, there's a bunch of rust. The front inner fender skirts are pretty bad, but they appear to just be a bolt-in deal. The floorboards near the edges are pretty chewed up, as well as near the gun-mounts. The rockers themselves actually look pretty good...

I was wondering if there was any way to mount an air compressor and the compressor for the air conditioner? I understand that if you convert to 12v you can free up one alternator's spot for the A/C compressor, but then would there be enough room for an engine-mounted compressor? Alternatively...

Hey guys, I think I may have an exhaust leak. It's a loud ticking noise coming from in front of the passenger seat, up high in the engine compartment. The weird thing is that, unlike other exhaust leaks I've experienced, it gets louder at higher RPM's instead of going away. It doesn't show up...

I'm looking for a clean CUCV Blazer near Kansas City, MO. I don't mind doing a little mechanical work, but I'd like a clean body. If anyone has one or knows of one, I'd like to hear. Thanks!! p.s. - Yes, I'm searching the classifieds, craigslist, eBay, Google, GL, etc.

I'll get these up on the classifieds and update this thread, but I wanted to give everyone a heads up. I've got the following for sale: 1 x Complete soft top kit, including vinyl-padded top, bows and door frames. Everything you need to put on the soft top. It is used, but in great shape. I...

Okay, this is probably a stupid question, but this is my first "big" truck, so here goes. How do I pull just one wheel from the duals in the back? I'd like to be able to drive the inner tire up on a board and pull the outer wheel. I see there are lug nuts and Budd caps, what is the purpose of...

Just picked up a new hardtop. $150 delivered, pretty good deal. Has a small dent in the "brow", but nothing major. Anyway, I want to get this thing installed and had a couple of questions. 1) Does it take any special hardware? I figured just nuts and bolts, maybe washers. 2) Can I install...

Anybody got an exhaust tip for the deuce? I need the part that has the flange at the base that clamps on to the vertical exhaust stack. I would prefer one with the curve at the top to help keep the rain out. I had to butcher mine to get my muffler on and I'd like to be able to put it back to...

So, one of the first mods I've done to my truck is to put on a muffler. I was going to use the NAPA 21470 that so many have mentioned, but I had my CarQuest guy cross-reference the part and theirs came up $35, so I decided to give it a go. I put it on pretty high, towards the end of the...

Anybody got either of these? Preferably in the Kansas City, MO area as I could pick them up, but shipping is fine. PM me if interested. Thanks!!

Well, it finally came home. After weeks of waiting, false starts with haulers, etc., I finally got her home last night. I'm still waiting to figure out what year it is. The contract year is 1970 by General Products - Jeep, so I think it's somewhere around 70-73. I bought it sight unseen, so...

There have been a couple threads on here about towing or trailering a deuce. I thought maybe you guys would like to see how my hauler is bringing mine home tomorrow. He's hauling it WITH the firetruck on the trailer, as well. Looks like an enormous load for his truck, but he said he's fine...

Are any of you familiar with Lance Evans of Mooresville, IN? He won my shipment on uship.com and was supposed to pick the truck up today at Drexel Gardens, IN. He was supposed to call when he left the lot to let me know if he would arrive today or tomorrow. I have not heard from him all day...

What is the stock deuce's wheelbase width? The overall truck width from the TM is 96", but I can't seem to find a wheelbase width. My hauler needs to know for some reason (8 ft. was not specific enough, I guess). Any help?
