I am also having speedometer troubles. My speedometer was not reading right and kind of jumpy so I replaced the cable hoping that would cure the problem.... no such luck, so I looked at the driven gear in the transfer case and noticed that the yellow 41 tooth gear was kind of wallowed out where...

I have figured out that the plastic gear is surly a yellow 41 tooth gear, I looked at teh gear everything looks perfect. However, where the cable screws into the plastic gear is wallowed out and the cable looks to be slipping inside so I ordered a new one just waiting for it to come in. By the...

I am thinking about installing some gauges on my m1009 I think the first will be a small tach any ideas on how to install one as in where do I hook it up to?

I am having speedometer trouble I replaced the cable and am running stock 31x10.50.15 tires BF Goodrich AT KOs. I have narrowed it down to the speedometer gear in the tranny my questions is how many teeth does the gear have so I can get the right part at this point in time I can not take out the...

I had some oil coming out of the CDR valve on my M1009 I was told it needed to be changed. I changed the CDR valve with a brand new one and I checked again and I see some oil coming out the vent hose hole in the top of my intake. The truck cranks and runs perfect does not smoke while driving it...

In, addition to the reply above I was reading my sun visor while waiting on a long train the other day and it states that any temp above 20 degrees use #2 diesel fuel, Well few days later I was running really low on fuel and pulled into a store and put a half of tank of #2 fuel or off road...

I know that my speedo is off and is like 3/10 of a mile off which is a lot when adding up mpgs, so what I do is for example I drove 260 miles then I times that by 0.3 which is 73 miles that the speedo did not calculate, which would bring me to 338 mile driven and divide that by 14 gallons of...

I drive mine as a daily driver on long runs at 55mph I got 24 mpgs with stock tires and gearing now in town the mpgs drops I think i am getting about 14 mpgs. Now I was reading on the sun visor and it said run #2 diesel fuel for temps above 20 degrees so I was running low on fuel and put a half...

I am having a on going issue with my m1009. The problem is on the fuel filter housing and it seems that nobody knows what is wrong. I was poring fuel out of the bottom plastic screw that is suppose to remove the water from the system. I searched around the local part stores with no such luck, I...

I have just came across a tire the size is 33x13.50x15 Nitto Mud Grappler. I am wondering if they will fit with the stock ride height? It seems like I have plenty of clearance for a 33 inch tire (in theory).

No I am running the stock tires but the speedo is still off

Now what does that two stroke oil do for these trucks? I am using desiel kleen in every tank it is supposed to keep everything lubed and working right. I was told that the Z- max works even better but it is like 40 bucks for the kit oil and fuel but it supposed to really work. In addition I was...

I am getting 12-14 mpgs but with everyones replys of my poor mpgs one reply really stuck out. The reply was asking me if my speedo was working in good order and the answer is no my speedo is off by a country mile. I could be doing 55 mph in my gps and it will show me doing 45 mph. By it doing...

I have Bf Goodrich At Ko with 31x10.50x15 and they do really well but like with all all terrains they do have their weaknesses which is mud. The BF all terrains do have a slight roar but is a good all around tire. I honestly would love if they made one in a 31x12.50x15. The tire makes for better...
