    Finally underway and it BARELY fits. Rotated the fender down on the trailer, there were some bracket looking things sticking up still so aired down the front tire so it doesn’t puncture when it went over them. Pretty sure the surge brakes on the trailer barely work. Only engage when I’m about...

    M1009 (Also) Turn signal issues

    Noticed there is another topic describing almost the same problem as me, but in case its not the same cause, here we go: Signalling Right flashes front and rear right signals. Braking does not affect the flashing. Signalling Left flashes left signal on front but both signals on rear...

    Truck-Lite LED Headlights----Finally Ordered a set.

    Can anyone show a pic of what the illumination looks like from the drivers seat at night? Low and high beam? I saw the picture on the box but am hoping for a better view. We just put a lightbar on my wife's truck I want to compare it to that

    D60/14BFF Axle Swap on M1009

    I kept original master cylinder. I did not have any issues between it and the 1 ton axles. Also went with Cadillac disks for the rear. Did not get a proportioning valve. I don't know what the disk vs drum difference feels like. Did not drive it with the drums just swapped straight to disk...

    M-1009 rear U-joint at diff yoke part #

    Recently finished a swap to 1 ton axles on my m1009. My rear shaft-axle "stock" u joint is a 3R-1350 conversion joint. Drove me crazy until i got it right. I must have 3 other u joints in the wrong size laying around. By your description it sounds like what you may have.

    Whats your favorite headlight?

    May I assume you've tried all three? If so, do you have pictures of the beam pattern on the road? Wouldn't mind something better than the two light spots on the road surrounded by darkness.
