Hi I've got the violent bouncing when I hit 40 MPH. I slow down to 20 MPh and it stops. It last maybe 5 minutes then it stops. It drives fine after that. It seems to only happen when it's cold? I've already had the transmission filter and fluid replaced, the vacuum gauge on the top of the...

Hi All, I have a 1984 CUCV and I broke the turn signal lever,. The lever just has the blinkers/turn signal on it and the wiper/washer function on it, no delay wiper, however it would be great if it did. Anyways, I've read some threads and watched some YouTube videos and don't see anything...

Hi the hood is very hard to unlatch. After pulling the lever it doesn't release. I have to slam the door for the hood to open. Don't see any way to adjust it? Thoughts? 2nd the rear tail gate used to open a little hard but it would open. Now no matter what I try I can't get it to release. Any...

Hi All. My 1984 6.2L seems to rev up a lot higher before shifting than my old one. Shifting from first to second revs up higher and it shifts into 3rd around 55 MPH. Wanted to see if you'd give me some ideas on what to check? Thanks

Hey All, I'm sure others have seen this and wondered what the fix is. When I start to drive my 1984 M1009 the Speedometer bounces all over the place. After driving it 15 or 20 minutes it stops and starts giving the actual MPH. Wondered what I could try to fix it? Thanks

Hi All, on my 1009 the rear window will not crank the last 1 inch or so. Awhile ago I purchase in the box a brand new interior mechanism from a guy. He said it would work. The problem is the part on the interior mechanism that connects to the exterior crank is different. I purchased a new crank...

I have a new rear window interior mechanism. It seems to maybe not be standard? I've attach a photo of what mine looks like. I've bought the crank handle from LMC but it doesn't have the correct interior part to crank the rear window mechanism properly. Anyone have any thought on where to get...

Hi All, My 1984 M1009 has a left rear tail light issue. At first the whole left tail light, brake light and turn signal light didn't work. I found the ground wire has rusted off. I fixed that and now have a brake light and turn signal. But the left tail light still didn't work. I thought ok...

Hey All, I think my hard start might be a little different? When I try to start in temps even in the 70's it cranks fine but doesn't fire. Bus if I squirt just a tiny bit of ether it fires right away. They starts almost immediately after that. Both batteries and the starter are brand new. I...

Hi All, A few days ago I went out to start my M1009. It has always cranked and started just fine. It cranked 3 times like normal then it died. I thought I had a battery problem since I hadn't started it in a month. I put my trickle charger on and charged both batteries overnight. Went out to...

Hey All, I'm looking into putting a winch on my M1009. I was wondering what you all thought about the Harbor Freight BADLAND APEX™ 12,000 lb. winch ? I know nothing about winches but this one looks good to me? Thanks for your opinions.

My 1984 CUCV has a problem and won't crank all the way. I've looked and the window mechanism had some teeth missing. I thought no problem I have a brand new one. Well after checking it the part that actually connects to the crank is different that the one in it now. I've attach a photo of what...

Hi all I'm trying to remove a aftermarket radio in my M1009. Do I have to take the whole dash assembly apart to get to the mounting bolts?

Hi All the right side of my tail gate is about 1/4 inch from the hole in the body when you close the tail gate. Causing the rear window to not roll up the last inch. I tried a crank strap to pull then end of the truck in and broke the strap. Any idea on how to get the right rear body to move a...

Hi All you Mechanic Guru's. I have a starting problem on my 1986 6.2L. If it were a gas engine I'd think it was a carburetor choke high idle problem. But have no clue on my diesel. It used to start almost immediately even at 0 degrees. Both batteries are fairly new. I turn the key half way...
