    Wheel Balancing...

    So I've been running my M1009 for about 2 weeks. I noticed when it got up to about 55mph, I started getting a pretty bad vibration. I had checked the driveshaft and hadn't noticed any forklift dents. But, I crawled under there again anyway and checked it out. Nothing. I couldn't figure out...

    GL ads disappeared...did I miss something?

    The photos are the biggest thing, I would think. I'm an admin on a small local board, and it seems that they are what burn up the most bandwidth. Since SS requires you to use their bandwidth to post/view pics, this would seem to make sense. Why let freeloaders (which, admittedly, I am right...

    GL ads disappeared...did I miss something?

    I agree that Robyn was less than helpful. And there is a lot of bashing here about GL. I would guess that most, if not all, is well deserved. I participated in it. The sales event I participated in was horribly mishandled. If Robyn had really been here to learn and listen, that never should...

    My new M1009, with pics and questions...

    Thanks guys.. 319: Thats exactly what I needed. I knew something was broken off the dash there, so I just need to do like you did and put a bolt there. As far as the little clip, does it get a screw or anything, or is just held on by friction? I'll have to check the blackout marker light...

    My new M1009, with pics and questions...

    First, fired right up. Runs great. Checked all fluids - full and clean. Tires needed a little air, but looked good (looks aren't everything!). One of the tires was a uniroyal, while the rest including the spare were goodyear wranglers. Took it for a spin, ran to the gas station to fill it...

    VIN Info-'You may fire when ready, Gridley.'

    Thanks CARNAC! Maintenance battalion, eh? I guess maybe that's why its in such well maintained shape. =). I can also say that it must have "belonged" to a MSGT Johnson, as on the windshield, just above the dash on the driver's side I can see where there used to be lettering that said his...

    Barstow inspection..

    Wow! Thanks! Any idea what the rack/box thing is in the cargo area? I love it too - a BRAND NEW spare!! I see the pic underneath, but its blurry. Were you able to tell if the driveshaft was OK or dented? I owe you a beer!

    Barstow inspection..

    Mike, my sale # is 3577, lot # 8660. Any pics you could take would be great. I think I'm going to have 100dollarman pick mine up for me, but I wonder if my truck is still in the same condition as when I bid/ =) Can you peek under it as well and check the driveshafts? Thanks!! Brice
