Drove the kids/grandkids in the Patriots Parade here this morning. Been a long time since I've participated in a parade instead of just watching. Had some great comments as we drove along...a lot of fun for all of us.
Ok, I bought this in Dec. and the carrier made it to his home in St. Louis before getting his van impounded for back child support. My tank turret is setting in his garage now in St. Louis and I need to get it to Central KS. He is right off I70. If anyone East of St. Louis is headed to Glen's in...
I'm probably not ever going to put the topper back on my M1009, unless I want to sell it. That said, I was wondering if I could replace the tailgate with one from a 1008/1028 or civi truck?
I have two holes in the same place on both front fenders that I don't know what they were used for. They are between the wheel well and the doors and a little higher than the top of the wheel well. No rivnuts in them, but all of them had a rubber plug in them. I should have asked this a long...

I stopped in Salina, KS. to see Glenn, but he had gone to lunch...
I started to change fluid in the transfer case this morning and noticed what looked like a pin hole around the fluted area on the back of the case where the drain and check/fill plugs are. It had that typical aluminum "white corosion" and when I poked around it gently, these three holes opened...
If anyone from Kansas is going to the NC Rally in April, I would like to talk with you. If you would have room, I have a pair of M1009 front seats (just the cushions) that I need to get back to Kansas. Thanks
