I use a urethane adhesive caulk. I don't use the rubber that came from factory. I clean. Wire brush. Or I just replace the sash. When I caulk the window in I clamp it straight on the glass. Make sure you put it on the correct way the first time. You can mount it back wards if you are not...

I took the time to disassemble another M1009 gate. I am going to rebuild this one as a spare. I have a few M1009's that the gates have all been rebuilt on. I will show you how to rebuild the glass channels if you are interested. I harvested these 2 glass channels from this gate. A bit rusty but...

Send me an address and I can send you some. I have a roll of it. Limited supply. It works well if you clean the channels really good. I cleaned mine really good and then washed them with a wax and grease remover and used a urethane black adhesive/sealant to hold it in. I clamped it in a few days...

The rear window and gate survived 8 continuous hours of off road pounding yesterday. And guess what it still goes up and down as smooth as when I installed it. i will be adding a brush seal to the outer top edge just to keep the leaves and pine needles out. So I must have dialed it in right. I...

Sorry if I went into it to deep but the window and gate work well. And I spent nothing but time and the cost of a tube of black urethane adhesive sealant to over haul the entire gate. welding is optional. You can screw the gate together. Welding is better but screwing it together is and option.

After everything is cleaned up and painted or lubed I install the rebuilt tracks. I have a secret method that works best. beats the OEM felt runs. It will never rot and keeps the window tight and rattle free. TRIM LOCK. I grease the roller tracks and used all new fasteners as always. i discard...

Then I install the handle / crank. I use new 1/4" serrated lock nuts and a 1/4" flat washer. The next thing is to clean and lubricate the regulator assembly. Hole and chassis grease work best. WD 40 is like doing nothing. Don't waste your time on spray lube.

I wanted to show you how to get your rear gate back in shape. First you must disassemble the entire gate and clean it out. The crank when you have it removed remove the e clip and the clutch. I scrubbed this handle with a dry old tooth brush and then I oiled it and scrub it with the old tooth...

I am in the process of overhauling a gate on my Terminus M1009 project. I will be posting pictures to help a few people with the tips to keeping the gate healthy and operational. I like gates that work well and are not a constant PIA. I have had a few like that. I will take pictures and post...
