I had my rear shaft break once and had to drive over a hundred miles with out it. I used a coors light can and duct tape. I saw that in off road magazine years ago. coors light because its a little thinner then most beer cans. If Americans were not such pigs, throwing trash out car...

Well after almost 4 years my 1009 is running again. The motor was replaced.. I blew the one that was in it while driving across country to give the blazer to my brother. He died in the line of duty, fire fighter, he was at ground 0 for six weeks it finally killed him. When I learned of his...

I have a dodge 3/4 ton and the 1009, 95% of the time I use the blazer!!

I like the lights!! What model number are they? Where did you order them from and how much were they? I was looking for something like these 2 days ago. Keep up the good work with your projects, I love reading about them everyday. Chuck

i stopped in Memphis on a trip from Chicago to Las Vegas, Nv in my 1009. While the truck was parked in the hotel lot someone during the night stole the windshield wipers. Naturally it was raining when I wanted to leave.

Were you required to stop at the weigh stations?

I must be lucky, my gauge is dead on. When I first got the truck I didnt trust it but after many LONG trips I trust it. Knock wood I have never run out of fuel. I do carry 5 gallons spare if I am doing a cross country trip just in case it decides to go south when Im not around fuel stations...

Keep us posted as you go. I like the updates on your other project!!

I want to do a road trip in the worst way.

I had one of the trans lines rub through. I tried to find a new set to put on but had to get a hydraulic line made. I was short of time as the line went when I was getting ready for a Vegas to New Jersey run. Its been no issues at all.

Try Boyce equipment in Utah

Im thinking steering box or the spring pack bolt.

I have traveled cross country with my 09 many times. Never had any major problems but the things that did go wrong I had the spare parts for. The oddest thing was an oil cooler line, big mess, I had just changed them less than 30 days before. Kept the old ones for spares changed it at a rest...

Time for another post. Im finally getting back to the states for a while. The motor I got from Boyce looks really good, the odometer said 39k but it looks like a rebuild or new motor. I couldnt find a tag on it. Belts look new no scratches in the paint, we will never know. Well the truck...
