    snapped bolt head on coolant crossover - m1009

    I was changing the gaskets on the coolant crossover today. I had 3 loosened up and when I tried to loosen the 4th, the head snapped right off. Now I have the pleasure of trying to extract it using easy outs/bolt extractors etc. Does anyone know the part numbers for these bolts? I looked in the...

    Crossover Pipe Gasket Part no.

    Hi Everyone, I did a search looking for the coolant crossover pipe gasket part numbers, but couldn't find much. I looked in the TM's as well, but could only find the steps for replacement but not part no's. Does anyone know what these are? I have a coolant leak on my m1009 and want to change...

    Why are CUCV prices so much higher that Civi Chevs

    i looked long and hard up here in chicago for a civi diesel blazer. they're almost impossible to find, and when I did find them they were swiss cheese. the m1009's typically have less rust and overall they're simpler.

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    i got everything from rock auto - the window scrapers are easy. However, the seals and felt are in the window track which is tougher. Its an upside down U-shape and you have to pull the vent windows out to get one side of it in. Pulling the vent window is a real SOB.

    Hello from Chicago - m1009

    glad to hear you think so...i sure do love driving it, but the previous owner has done some stuff that drives me crazy. i know i couldve spent another 4-5 grand and got a really nice one, but then i guess i wouldnt get to turn wrenches as much either.

    Aftermarket Voltmeter

    If anyone was interested, I put that ISSPRO gauge in last night and did the Doghead mod. It's plug and play. Although the original voltmeter light only has 1 wire running to it so I'll have to find another way to light the gauge up. Anyways, here is the video. Seems to be working correctly...

    Aftermarket Voltmeter

    bought this one that i found in another thread. Pricy, but it should be a good replacement that reads the correct voltage. http://www.issprogauges.com/Classic-20-32-Volt-DC-Voltmeter-Gauge-p/iss-r8661.htm

    Aftermarket Voltmeter

    Hi Guys, I did a search on this but wasn't able to find much. The P.O. of my M1009 put in an aftermarket voltmeter (see attached photo). Everytime I plug it in it pops the 28v fuze. I hooked it directly up to 12v and it pins the meter as well, so I'm sure its set up for 12v not the 24v charging...
