I had an interesting ride to work this morning in my '85 M1009. About 2 blocks into the trip, I notice that the speedometer jumped from around 30mph to roughly 75mph nearly instantly, all without me noticing the fighterjet levels of acceleration that should have accompanied such a jump. As...

I thought I had a simple one tonight. After a week or so of near constant rain, this afternoon/evening the weather suddenly turned wonderful. Of course, I felt the need to put some work into a truck as soon as that happened. I brought my '84 M1009 over to my apartment, pulled the rear diff...

I finally fixed the glow plug system on my '84 M1009 today. Unfortunately I noticed relatively quickly that it was bleeding trans fluid from somewhere near the radiator, but I couldn't find the source. All of the connections I can see on the drivers side of the radiator seem dry. Oddly, I...

Just thought you guys might like to see some of these pictures from last weekend. I was swapping out the transmission filter on my '85 M1009. Unfortunately the job took twice as long as it should have since some National Guard mechanic once decided that the trans gasket would work much better...

My 85 M1009 came with a busted out driver's window. Its been covered over with a couple of plastic trash bags since I picked it up. Last week, I received a nice big box from LMC truck that held my brand new replacement window, and I spent a while yesterday trying to get it installed. I did...

So I've discovered why my '84 M1009 won't start without a little squirt in the intake... not only are quite a few of the glow plugs dead and swollen, but the green wires leading to the passenger side GP's are either rotted apart or eaten away by something. I understand that these wires are part...

I just got my EUC cleared from GL for an M101A1 sitting in Bordentown, NJ. I know this is a long shot, but can anyone in the area pick this trailer up for me and hang onto it until I can get a license plate on at least one of my M1009's?

I recieved my paid invoice last week for the 2 M1009's that I won in early December, and spent most of Tuesday picking up the first one. I headed down to Lakehurst in the morning and picked up an out-of-work friend who lives 10 miles off post on my way there. The temperature was about 38...

This is my first GL auction, and it does seem like they want it to be my last. I'd just like to explain what's happened so far and see if I'm missing something here. For some reason, GL does not want to believe I live in my apartment. I won a pair of M1009's on 12/4, and I initially emailed...

I've been able to find plenty of dimensions in the various TM's, but the one I haven't found anywhere is the stock height of the bumper and specifically the tow hooks. I've read repeatedly that towbars should be as level as possible, so I need to figure out how much of a drop or rise I need for...

I just wanted to introduce myself. I've been lurking on the board for a while now gathering information, and starting bidding on some GL auctions a little while back. Of course, I've been outbid on every single one of them, until I won 2 M1009's yesterday. I've prepared my EUC and I'll be...
