    Carpeting?

    Has anyone put in carpet in their M1009? Can you get a carpet kit OEM from GM? What about JC Whitney? I just bought a new OEM GM dash and door panels...they are beautiful! Got them on ebay. The door panels were charcoal and the dash is black...I hate brown interiors! I might have to buy...

    The Manual says 55 mph...

    So what is the consensus guys? George likes 70 mph. It seems comfortable to drive 70 mph, but lately I have been driving between 55-60 mph, due to what the manual said. Warren

    Blown fuse

    Okay, I added a cigarette lighter to my M1009. I plugged the power lead for the cig lighter into the "v-mtr" fuse panel slot. When I pushed in the lighter, it blew the bottom 10 amp fuse that feeds power to the volt meter. Where should I plug this lead for the lighter into? Can I run a higher...

    Service light /black-out light decals

    Well consider it done then... One of the guys in my band works at a screen printing company that does most of the cell phone logo printing, so detail is not a problem. But I was thinking of upgrading the decal to a piece of aluminum. I could have the local metal fabrication shop punch out a...

    Deuce camper?

    Has anyone built a camper for the Deuce? I was thinking of putting my cargo top up and then...building a camper to fit inside the area under the cover. That way, it would look military authentic from the outside, but inside...James Bond! Toilet, sink, beer, TV DVD, round rotating bed, and a...

    383 Paint texture question and more questions!

    I was looking at and feeling the paint inside my deuce and my M1009...(my wife had a headache that night). The paint has a sort of sandy gritty texture to it. Is this strictly a military paint characteristic? My M1009 does not have "CARC" stenciled nor does my M35A2. I think perhaps sand or...

    Is this your deuce?

    I...uh...really need a cold shower. But this brings me back to the Black painted and Chromed out Deuce...with a deuce in that configuration, you can get the other deuce...I'm sure of it!

    New cargo cover & .50 on the ring

    Who made your Ma Deuce? I think the M35A2 is one of the only vehicles that makes that M2HB look small! I picked up a TNW M2HB right before Ahnold signed away his career! That gun is fun to shoot! Warren

    Malibu, California-Style Black Deuce

    I love to drive that Black Knight over to Arnolds Hummer Household and show himwhat I think about his 50 cal signature! "I squish your jead Ahnold!" Being from Kalifornia, one could probably get a date in a black deuce like that.

    Mileage in the M1009

    I think I might lift mine 2" and go to 33" tires. Will I have rubbing problems? I wish I could adapt the humvee rims to the blazer , even thought they are pretty heavy. Warren

    Service light /black-out light decals

    Does anyone have a source for new decals? The one to the left of the main light switch? Let me know, or else I'll have to make one as mine is delaminated in the center. Warren PS. Was thinking about making them out of aluminum with 3m backing tape, screen printed.

    Mileage in the M1009

    18.23 miles per gallon...not too bad for combined city and highway for a 4x4. Are you M1009 owners getting the same? Warren

    Cigarette lighting mounting.

    Okay...I bought a generic, but pretty nice looking cig lighter from Kragen so I can charge my cell phone, etc. I've mounted it in its proper place, but need to know where to hook up the wires so it is only on when the ignition is turned on. It also has a lighted green plastic bezel so you...

    M1009 Radio mount instructions

    Hi George, You described the shelf perfectly. I think I have the generic vehicle mount kit. Anyway, the kit came with the shock mounte4d part and the bottom piece it attached to. I'm missing the legs and the very bottom piece...and probably other stuff too. Bu the way guys...If George is...
