I saw this truck on FB today and it has what I have been looking for: non-opening windshields. What are these? "Stock" or fab'd? I've got a glass guy if anyone knows if it's just a seal or if it's a completely different frame. Thanks!

For the M109a3 campers: What have you done for a locking handle for the rear barn doors? I pulled the 2 floor/ceiling rods out and now I just have the handle. Is there a direct replacement you've found that has a key lock? Thanks!

Anybody have a source to find rear door and window weatherstripping for the M109 box? I'm midway thru my gut job and just really noticed the stripping was pretty much gone. Thanks!

After over a month and 1200miles on the beat up spring seat, I needed a change. I went to Pull-A-Part and got a really nice set of Trailblazer seats with the integrated seatbelts (mainly for the wife). Fab'd up mounts and mounted them in. Look great, comfortable as hell, and unusable for me...

After a deep dive in the search with vague terms, I figured I'd ask I've had my M109 for over a month and well over 1000miles, the brakes are becoming a concern. They stop the truck and the pedal travel hasn't changed. Problem is: it's an inch off the floor. I drained the air tanks, checked all...

I learned a new fun fact today: A turbo will stay on the manifold with just one mounting bolt. My M109 has been my work/daily for the past week or so and while I knew the turbo manifold mount gasket was bad, I hadn't thought to look deeper till I went to put the gasket on this weekend. I...

Turbo gasket After putting a muffler on my 109 I found the loud exhaust leak. The exhaust manifold to turbo gasket is blown. Couple questions: Any links to the gasket? Quicker delivery, the better Can the gasket get changed without yanking the turbo? Basically, can I unbolt the turbo, lower it...

I did some searching and came up with a mixed bag of info I've got a '72 M109 that seems to have a 4th gear that didn't play well with the others. It would grind a little shifting into it over 1500rpms and progressively got to where it just gave up It must be contagious because my Xterra...

So, construction has begun Well, destruction has begun. I knew the front floor corners were rusted out when I bought my truck, no biggie. I started removing the wood planks and found the steel subfloor is pretty much gone. If you've run into this or redone your floors, what did you do? Did you...

Howdy Just picked up a '72 Deuce with a van body today and the maintenance needs to begin. Questions I have after a 4hr drive: What is the normal operating oil pressure? I was running just under 30lbs at 2500rpms On the gauge, where should the amperage be? I was on the green/red line the...

Hi all I just got a '72 Deuce with an M109 van body. Drove it home and can't wait to dive in. It has an unknown maintenance history so I'm guessing it hasn't had an oil change in years. Or any thing else. Didn't stop from making a 4hr non stop drive home Looking forward to the build!
