I bought a "new" damaged return from Saturn Surplus, it cost me $100 to get it fixed. These are new radiators, returned to Saturn for shipping damage. As far as I know at this time this is the only option, check to see if they still have one.
Well if it's 12v is the starter 12v as well? stuff we need to know, like if it has been converted to 12v.
Here is the factory set up. You should have two large leads and one small one with a Packard connector. #3 large is your ground, lead #12 is the small wire with Packard connector, lead...
Can you post a picture of the back of it? and do you know if it is 24V ? The goat uses a standard 60A 28V alternator but the pulley is special to the goat.
Tip is swollen, several threads on here on removing them. I have a special puller that has always worked. If they are not too bad you can get a vice grip on it and pull as you are unthreading and they will "thread out", some times you may need to pry up on the grips to get it to start threading.
The electrical design is weak and a poor design. It's best to bypass the ammeter and run the main power lead direct, as designed the full load is running through the meter, a cause for many M880 electrical fires. There is a website that gives a tutorial on how to do it, just give a search...

It uses fuel from the return line, a air pump mounted above the starter vaporizes the fuel into the airbox where the spark plug ignites it and warms the intake air to aid in starting.
I had the same experience when I bled my brakes. I strapped them like you did to do the initial bleeding, I wanted to see if anything was leaking before I put the drum on. I then put the drum on, adjusted the brake shoes, then re bled them through the hole in the drum. I used a Craftsman...
The M1009 has a lot of potential rust issues. The design of the body has a lot of places that promote rust and is common to all of them. In my opinion a true "clean" M1009 is worth more than any other CUCV variant as they cruise down the highway without any modification and have very...
I think you will find that the 5 ton arm will have a smaller diameter spline, the goat spline is fairly large, I would confirm that before I spent money on them.
