Hello All,
Ok...after many hours of reading different posts on swapping a 700R4 into the M1009 I have just a few specific questions relative to my situation.
I currently own a 1987 K5 gaser with the factory 700R4/NP208 in it. I was already planning on swapping parts from it onto my M1009. I...
I'm interested in one....
Please keep us posted.
I have a '87 Civy gasser K5 with the 700R4 and 208 from the factory. I just can't decide if I want to pull the trigger and yank the set-up out and put it in the M1009.
I have no idea what I would need to pull with it for the swap and all the...
Just to note...
The filter you show installed is not a 5.1" filter....It's a 4.3" filter
31873 Final Filter 5 micron Normal Flow 4.3" (109.2)
31875 Final Filter 5 micron Normal Flow 5.1" (129.5)
I use the Lubricity Formula they offer since I use Jet A and it has worked very well. It's recommended for low sulfur fuels. I have a home brew mix of additives(Cetane booster etc.) that I add to the Jet A when I fuel and the lubricity formula is the base.
The heater unit is 12Volt...correct?
Hello all,
I was reading all the old posts on replacing the factory oil cooler lines but I'm wondering if anyone has any pics of their own custom oil line set-up?
If anyone has done this can they please tell me what type of fittings I need to get for the block and radiator?
How did they route...
Not hard to disassemble...but....
Make sure you note the indexing of the ignition cam gear teeth after you remove the ignition switch before you pull the column apart.
Putting the assembly back together is a real pain as you have to align the dip switch rod, steering lock pin and ignition...
Hello all,
I just wanted to share something I learned this weekend which solved a lingering question I posted about back in Dec. of 2011.
See thread...

Lately over the last month I have noticed the glow plug...
Just thought I would share one of my projects accomplished over the weekend. "Chemical Jane" was in need of a new wiper switch as well as a new turn signal switch and lever so I decided to tare the steering column apart and go through everything.
One of the things I wanted to do at the same...
Does anyone know if the GM 14067705 pulley(M1010) can be used for a M1009 instead of the GM 14067704 part number?
I may need to replace mine and all I can find available is the 14067705.
Thanks...
Can someone please tell me how the gear in this picture is supposed to be oriented as I slide on the steering column piece? I am stumped and even though I have read the TM I'm lost. I know its supposed to engage the toothed thing in the steering column but I'm lost....
I was reading as many of the posts I could find on the 12V GP relay conversion but I didn't find the answer so a quick question...
Do you have to replace the glow plugs at the same time with AC60G's or the like when you get rid of the resistor and do the 12V relay mod or can you do the...
Can someone please tell me what the correct factory routing is for a factory speedo cable housing? basically from the firewall all the way to the transfer case.
I was able to find a brand new original speedo cable and housing but can't remember how it's supposed to route from the transfer case...
