Good suggestions both for sure. The batteries are less than two years old and are the U6TL's. I purchased them and installed them myself. Water is at the correct levels. All the battery cables were replaced last summer by me. At which time I cleaned EVERYTHING up, including the junction...

Well, I'm having electrical problems since I installed the two new alternators. My batteries died after since two weeks of intalling them. All I did was swap wires out. But both batteries have died. Strangely enough, sitting idle without trying to start the truck, they show 14v. When I...

OK, with a break in the weather, I finally got the opportunity to install both new alternators. The nice thing is I now have two new (non squealing) alternators and they work great. My Power Steering guy gave my system the once over and said it looked good, except maybe one of the pressure...

Plus the whole rear seat will come out with the removal of two bolts. Comes right out. I do that a lot.

gumboo, it depends on which mv you purchase. CUCV's can have both a/c and power windows added. By you or most mechanics. And if you want a really built up one, read Devilman's build of his M1009. Of course, he also did a deuce but the Blazer has a lot 'more stuff' in it electronically than the...

TyJustice, Great looking M1009. Now all you need to do is join OUR local MV collectors of Colorado club. Dues are $30 a year (I think that's what it is). We will be rolling 30 trucks in the Denver St. Patty day's parade next weekend. IF you wanted to participate you need to contact me...

Yah, yah. And when the wind dies down and the temp goes above 50 degrees, I WILL INSTALL THESE PARTS and you WILL get pix. Unless you need pix of a rebuilt alternator in a box? I can give you that one.

I placed an order with OD Iron for two alternators for my M1009. In a day or less he boxed them up and shipped them out via UPS. That was a week before the FL rally that OD Iron hosted. I did not know that OD Iron hosted the event, but I did know Mike had gone to the rally. ANYWAY, the...

Realm, I am interested in the results of your project. I can only give you my opinion. A) How often will you use the rear for anything but carry passengers in the rear that could cause it to become so dirty you would want to hose it out? If the answer is mainly carrying passengers, then go...

http://pesn.com/2005/03/17/6900069_Acetone/ I've used acetone in both diesel and gas engines for years. My father uses it as well. Like it or don't like it. Use it or don't use it. Your call. I've gotten good results. With no harm to any rubber seals. At least none to the ones I kept in a...

Mike, Thx. I'll return the Autozone one. Then purchase two from OD Iron Mike. I'm funny about having a full set of extra's. I even have a full set of fan belts, yet instead of using them, I go buy new ones to replace the new ones I have as backup. Until I get those new ones to replace my...

I've been reading CUCV Alternator threads for the past two days. I've found after reading all of this, I am somewhat confused. First is this from Wiki CUCV: Dual 100 amp alternators wired in series to make the 24V. Very strong charging system that will handle any load you can toss at it...

Mileage is definitely something to consider. But so many of the M1009's never went ANYWHERE and just sat. And sat. And sat. If they got lucky, some National Guard unit used them one weekend a month. If not, there they sat. So, how OLD is your M1009? When was the last time the high pressure...

I do have a couple of ideas about this subject. I have two spares for my M1009. One goes on the passenger side in the normal position. I've been looking at other options. There seems to me to be two options for mounting my second spare on the inside of the rear of the truck. While this IS for...

I've lost two friends to gun fire. The first died by being mugged in Houston. He was shot once, at close range with a .22 and it severed his aorta. He died where he stood. Almost immediately from the shock to his system. I lost another friend in Kileen, Texas. She and her friend had stopped...

I won three auctions of military med chests and other kinds of misc chests in Salt Lake City. I picked it up in the middle of November. So I borrowed Randy L Barnes deuce and hit the road. I THOUGHT it would all fit, but that's another story for another day. Anyway, as we were rolling along...

dd, let me help you out here. you are aware that emp is constantly bombarding the earth? coming from the sun. we get 'radiation' spikes which are actually electrical impluses that strike the earth all the time. it disrupts communications all the time. but it doesn't wipe anything out...

DD, TRUST ME when I say I UNDERSTAND EMP. What happens when the USS ENTERPRISE comes into dry dock with all their high energy radar and other types of electronic survellance equipment putting it out? Can't tell you how many or I'd have to, you know... You shutdown ALL the computers. You shut...
