Thanks for the quick info guys. Porkysplace, I didn't think that the part numbers from back then would still work. Good lesson for me and thanks for the direct links. And joshuak, I was on that exact site and place earlier today but didn't know if those parts were good numbers for the CUCV. I...

Hello, I've taken a several evenings to look through the site for a list of parts needed for maintenance and repair. There are quite a few lists, but I can't find what I'm looking for. Yes I've gone through the "CUCV Wiki" and the "CUCV Helpful Threads" Sticky at the top of this forum. I'm...

Well I took another good look today and had a friend of mine who's a good mechanic look and there just isn't any knock-out plug of any kind. The backing plates are in pretty good shape so it's not like it's hidden by rust or anything. Just not there on this truck. The other day I was able to get...

FYI - The manual says they have slots. But I don't. What about other M1009 owners?

M1009. Thanks I'll try that.

Hello all, I recently noticed that my drivers side rear brake seemed to be dragging. I used an infrared thermometer after driving it and that wheel was hotter than the other side. So yesterday I got it up on jack stands and removed both tires. I was able to pull the passenger side drum off by...

In my above post I meant starter relay in all cases not starter solenoid.

CycleJay and doghead. Would you guys (and any others of course) please read my thread and see if what I'm describing is likely to be related to the starter relay problem? I'm planing on doing the starter relay fix tomorrow and seeing if it will turn over. I did hold the start position for a bit...

Mod. Please delete this duplicate post. Sorry.

If there is a thread that lists the most common repairs (preventative maintenance) I would appreciate a link to it as well. I'm having an electrical problem right now. In my forum search, I found a number of posts regarding replacing the starter solenoid with a better quality unit from Napa...

Thanks for the reply. I checked the suggestions you made regarding the 12V feed and glow plugs. I also downloaded the manuals and such but I haven't learned how to read schematics and so I'm at a bit of a disadvantage. I'll do a search for "unclesam" and see what info I can find. I was hoping...

Hello, I need some help please. I recently started driving my 1009 after it sat for a few years. It has been running like a top and starting with no problems. Over the last few days I've put quite a few miles on it (~200 miles). Today when I went to start it I had a pretty big problem. I turned...

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone. I should be able to make the monthly meeting next weekend. Thanks again.

I should be able to make it. Thanks for the invite.

Hello everyone. A bit of background on how I ended up a member here. About 3 or so years ago, I was poking around the internet late one night when I came across the Govliquidation auction site. And I thought "Wow", I've always loved K5 Blazers and I'm also a diesel nut so why not get one? And I...
