    M1009 dash lights not working

    Yes, I have the knob turned to full bright. I even had some LED replacement bulbs in to see if they would work but no dice. So I put regular bulbs back in just in case I was able to fix it and the LED's were faulty.

    M1009 dash lights not working

    Wiat, grouds at the turn signal sockets? I've never messed with circiut tape before now but what do you mean? When I think ground I think ground wire. Just take out the bolt, re-run with new wire, clean grounding surface, and be on your way, I'm not familiar with a different type of ground than...

    M1009 dash lights not working

    Alright, I've had some issues with my dash lights since I bought this truck but now they don't work at all. My lights for my alternators and turn signals work but none of the others work. I pul the switch for my headlights and they come on, my running lights in the rear come on, and also the...

    M1009 alternator issues

    I'm not too familiar with V belts but I wouldn't think a brand new belt would squeel like that.

    M1009 alternator issues

    I'd also like to add that wile relacing the belts I found that the driver side belt was the wrong size. The only way the previous owner could've put it on would be to take the alterntor off the braket and then slip the belt on. I'm having a very bad sqeel now as well from under the hood so I'm...

    M1009 alternator issues

    Well I replaced the LEDs wih the regular bulbs and now both my GEN lights are telling me my alternators arent charging. All I did was replace my batterys, by belts, and put in a new gauge cluster, I didn't have any charging issues before this. Any ideas?

    new headlights

    Anyone have a partnumber for the harness? I'm guessing since it's been posted as an upgrade it's not just a stock replacement.

    M1009 alternator issues

    Yes. I did use LEDs for the GEN lights. I didn't think it would've been an issue being as it'd still be completing the cuircut. I'll replace them with good bulbs as soon as I can, it won't be driven till then.

    M1009 alternator issues

    Alright, new batteries installed and a new gauge cluster. Since then now my GEN 2 light will not turn off and my GEN 1 light is very lightly flashing but not flasing in any kind of pattern. Also my lights to light up my cluster at night don't work but I think that's because of the LEDs I bought...

    What do you mean by "in the WIKI"? I'll be honest when I say I have no idea what you're talking about.

    Another "source" for alternator and p.s. belts for our CUCVS...

    I'm looking for the belts for my M1009, I got the belts for a civi 6.2 diesel but quickly found out they didn't fit at all. I'd lke to use gatorbacks but have no idea what to ask for. Anyone have part numbers?

    M1009 roll bar fabrication

    Thank you for the help, depending on how it goes I may start making them out of my shop on the side. I've made a few roll bars before but nothing for inside a truck with a removable top, only bed bars that were pretty much just looks and mounting off road lights. One of my main concerns at this...

    M1009 roll bar fabrication

    Well I'm not looking for a full cage setup, mainly just the rear section, like a roll bar for a normal pick up. I saw the full cages but I feel that would limit ease of entry and hinder more than it does good for me, I won't be taking her in anything I'll be worried about actually flipping the...

    M1009 roll bar fabrication

    I'm just wondering if anyone on here has gone as far as to build a roll bar for the back portion of thier M1009. I've been toying with the idea but with searching online and finding no results, it leads me to believe there may be an issue with it. I'm wanting it to be able to put on a bikini top...

    M1009 Speedometer System Question

    Where do you think you can find the reducer? I have been driving mine for the past year trying to calculate my speed but at 60 mph my gauge shows 45 mph. I've had no luck finding this reducer, mine didn't have one on it to service when I got the truck.

She drove well with a littlepulling every once in a wile and it got worse. Turned out I pretty much destroyed my...

    86 m1009 build Mississippi Style

    I want to know how you got the knife handle as a shifter. That by far is my favorite mod. functional as well, I could get rid of my dash compass.

    Safe to leave key in on position?

    I would just re-wire. My plan is wire mine through a kill switch. That way I don't have to worry about physically turning off my radio every time I get out of my truck being as I will be flipping the killswitch for the starting system anyway out of habbit.

    mufflers

    All I needed to hear. I've had a few gassers with straight pipes and never had a prolem but with the M1009 already having a pretty non-restrictive exhaust system I was afraid of too little back pressure without a muffler of some sort. I guess I'm on the hunt for the most agressive one I can...

    mufflers

    What are yall's thoughts on runng just straight pipes? I know it'd be loud as all get out but that's what I'm looking for. I just don't want to burn up vavles and this my 1st diesel.
