I have a friend in Greenwood, about 15min from Fort Chaffee with an m1009 that's having charging problems. Both alternators have been rebuilt (I think) and at least one belt was replaced just before she drove it across the state from jonesboro. When she shut it off, it's deader than a hammer...

I'm looking at replacing the rear bumper on my m1009 with the step bumper from my m1028 parts truck. I'd like to mount a swingaway spare tire carrier. Knowing that the body sheet metal isn't made to support that weight, does anyone know a specific application that will mount only to the step...

Can you still get the co-op grip spur/ Gateway Buckshot tires? I'm swapping m1028 axles into my m1009 and would really like a set of Q78-16 buckshots, but the only thing I can find online is Super Swampers. Interco makes a good tire, but I really like those DEEP lug bias Buckshots.

Starter was going out, classic "smack it with a hammer and it'll crank" GM starter issue. I DO have the Doghead relay mod done. No other issues. I went to the local starter/alternator shop and bought a Model 6598R 24v starter (Brown box, don't know manufacturer). Hook big wire up, hook little...

I have an early m101 with the curved brake handles, has sideboards but missing the top bows. I'm thinking of trying to diy a cover for it, has anyone done this? I have a pair of OD 20x20 12oz canvas tarps, one marked water resistant and one marked fire resistant, but I can't find a pic of what a...

I have a Warn MIL-9000 surplus winch mounted to my M1009 which I need to do some electrical troubleshooting on. The trouble is that the control pack is coated in some sort of rubber waterproofing. Has anyone got an easy method of clearing all that crap off so I can get to the wiring and contacts...

Is this someone here? Pretty cool! http://cascadiatents.com/index.php?m=92&s=639&id=614

Does onyone know of a source for COPPER heater cores for the 1009? Everything I find online is aluminum, (even the copper one in the picture on the NAPA site...I called and asked.) and the radiator shop can't even recore copper cause he can't order it either. I would rather not use the...

Ok, after reading throught the various alternator/generator threads I am convinced my #1 is shot. gen1 and oil lights come on AFTER truck is shut down, and the alternator is hot to the touch even when the engine is cold. (I unplugged it...I AM a firefighter, and don't feel like burning my truck...

The guy in town I bought my M1009 from has what looks to be an M35A2 sitting in his lot as well...he owns a restaurant supply business, and bought both trucks from our local Surplus store a couple of years ago. The surplus owner bought them both from GL, came from the MO Nat Guard, 135th Avn Bn...

I searched, but the few threads on this seemed to be all related to the deuce. Is it possible to recalibrate the speedo on my M1009 to compensate for my 34" tires?

Just some pics of our route clearance vehicles I thought y'all might enjoy.

...should my rear window roll all the way down? When it bottoms out, there is about 1/2" of glass still showing. I figured that's why the top is painted with a red stripe, but shouldn't it conceal completely in the door?

I've learned a LOT about running WMO in my M1009 here, and am starting to pre-plan my setup. What I'm curious about is what do y'all use to actually go collect the oil in? I've heard mention of "cubies"...what are those? I remember seeing a cube-ish plastic container in a wire cage/frame...

Hi y'all, I've been looking for a 3/4 ton 4x4 to replace the truck I swapped in on the "cash for clunkers" deal, and decided that a M1009 would fit my bill nicely...as luck would have it, I found one right here in Jonesboro Arkansas in really good running condition, only a few rust spots on...
