Hello all...:) I decided to replace the speedometer cable and housing this weekend after living with the tick, tick, tick and bounce, bounce, bounce in the speedometer since I bought the M1009 last year. After removing the old cable and housing I noticed that even though I was supposed to...

Hello all, So while under the M1009 yesterday to replace a speedo cable and front emergency brake cable I decided to take a look at the trans mount bushings on the cross member for the trans/transfer case. Ever since purchasing the vehicle last November I have noticed a clunk when I drive over...

Hello all...:) I've been off the forum for a while since I've been out on flight contracts. Nonetheless I have been using my M1009 as a daily driver and after much work six months back so far so good. I have been running surplus Jet A I have access to for fuel and have probably 10+ tank fulls...

Hello all...So I leave the house this AM for work. I back out my truck, park it for a minute and put the parking brake on...everything normal. I drive to work, park, press down on the parking brake foot lever and it goes all the way to the floor. Bummer. So I figure one of the cables...

Hello All, So I picked up my new factory GM oil cooler lines yesterday from my local dealer. I was disappointed to see that one line was made in Mexico and the other China. Oh well...what can you do. Anyway I noticed this notch on the existing oil cooler line from the block when I first...

When I first picked up my M1009 a few months ago the first thing I did was a white vinegar flush to the cooling system and then several rinses before I put on new hoses and a thermostat. After the flush I did notice that I wound up with some bubbly muddy orangish gunk that seemed to pool at the...
