I too have the Badlands 12000lb winch, on my 86 M1009. It didn't miss a beat high in the Rockies outside Rifle, Colorado on our annual Elk hunting trip in early November. It is slow but.. it pulled my fully loaded truck pulling a M101A3 trailer with my old Yamaha Grizzly 600 ATV in it. Straight...

can these be rebuilt?? If not, does it make sense to buy a used one, or will I have this problem again in the near future. The 1009 is primarily only used for hunting once a year, and occasional joy riding and 4 wheeling.

Ok, I guess that answers why I couldn't find info on this alteration. Thank you, any thoughts on where to buy a new or refurbished mech vac pump?

Hmmmm. didn't think about that. So should I just abandon it in place? Or just buck-up and buy a new mech pump?

Great idea except, I just paid a whole bunch for the rebuilt TH400 and new torque converter. Right or wrong, it is done. Thanks tho

Has anyone ever tried to replace the mechanical vacuum pump with a 12 volt electric vac pump. I am told that early eighties GM 4 cylinder cars used such a pump to run the HVAC controls. My mech pump is toast so, the trans is very erratic. I was thinking there must be some gain in removing the...

Hey Gunfreak, where would a guy find a HMMWV (6.5?) intake manifold? Also, how can I tell if my injector pump has been "turned up"? My truck had been worked on quite a bit by the previous owner. My diesel mechanic buddy says, I should turn the screw on the injector pump. Not sure??

Ok, Ok, I'll stop hitting the thank button on the posts. But seriously thanks! Keep 'em coming.

Can anyone tell me what temps.(trans., exhaust, and engine?) would call for a pull over and cool off?? Also, should I monitor engine oil temp. or water temp.?? Having a gauge is one thing, but...knowing what to do with those readings is another. I'm sorry but, I'm new at all of this CUCV /...

Thanks guys! I knew the SS family would help. Ok so, I will be installing a trans cooler, trans. temp. gauge, pyrometer and leave the tarp in the truck until we go off road. I will also take US 6 to Idaho Springs. Sharecropper... Yes we have been hunting the Flat-Tops area of White River NF for...

Planning a November Rocky Mountain Elk hunting trip. My route will take me from Denver to Rifle Colorado up I-70, over two rather daunting passes! Then a 20 mile off-road trek at low speed. I want to use my m1009 to pull an M101A3 trailer with an '01 Yamaha Grizzly 600 4x4 ATV on the trailer...
