I will just park this here. Imagine I cut them up and put them out for trash or in the trunks of cars going into the crusher.

This will get you an assortment of clips. I have a window to work on in the next few days. Of course I will post pictures. They will be in my CUCVRUS repair projects thread. Take care. Look in behind the inside...
He's been gone since 2019. And that post is 11 years old. That is the cover roof bows folded up front of the seats. Good Luck finding a complete set and the bows.
That will work. But being that the poster ask 6 years ago I doubt he even has the vehicle anymore. Thanks for your recommendation. If it helps 1 person it was a great post. Thank you.
First off I would remove the sash from the window and clean it up with a wire wheel, straighten it and paint it. I would polish the ends that travel in the side guides and get it smooth. That sash is in great shape compared to others I have fixed and replaced.
Reattaching the glass in the sash...
QU30234U Used Right Steering Knuckle for 1979-1991 Chevy and GMC (torqueking.com)
WOW is all I going to say. I will be watching this. i have lots of these parts.
I decided I would salvage a few more parts from the scrap 6.2 engines. I wasn't going to but they might be needed by someone and they are hard to find original parts. I tried beating the harmonic balancer loose and pried on the outer ring it didn't budge. I saved 2 of the 3 balancers the one I...
Either way will give you a decent reading. And the holes in the front of the head are the same size as the back. The heads can be switched side to side. There is not right and left head when they are setting on the floor and not attached to the engine. Maybe the back side will give a more...
If you have to grind your welds to make them look good, you are a good grinder and should let the welds to someone else. I agree that it will be fine but it looks like he was ashamed of his finish weld so he ground it off. All will be well.
As a rule I replace the axle drum hub seals every time I have to remove the hub and drum. That brake lining is more expensive then the seals and it assures you have a great new seal. But I do see hubs that have a groove worn into the axle stub. They make a seal saver for the 14 GM cooperate...
I used 2 3/4" wrenches and zip tied them in place in the C channel of the frame on top of the bolts. I used an impact to tighten the nuts from the bottom side and then cut the zip ties and removed the wrenches with a magnet and a wire I had attached to the wrenches. Sometimes you got to think...
Why I LOVE overhead welding on dirty, greasy, rusty material. Especially when it is covered in rust, snow and ice and dripping mass amounts of water into my ear canals. It's an experience you will never know until you have been there. You will never forget the sound of boiling water in your ear...
Terminus M1009 | Page 17 | SteelSoldiers
This was a custom built crossmember I built for my M1009 when I went wheeling. It was uncrushable. The round pieces on the ends were my design to prevent things from getting hung up on the edges. I never could bend that crossmember.

And all this time you were a good mechanic and never had any trust in yourself. Great Job. We don't need any auto shops. Do it yourself and do it right the first time. Very happy for you.
I swapped out the old blackened fuel sock for new one. I cleaned up the donor sending unit. Original GM and not available anymore. I polished the ground and used grease on all the connections. I put all the parts back together and replenished the fuel tank. I spilled some fuel taking the tank...
I feel somewhat shamed. I spent 10 hours getting a fuel tank out of an M1009. I removed the class 3 hitch, fuel tank skid plate, fuel tank, fuel tank sending unit and cleaned and installed a used one from the M1009 I had in my field for 20 years. I knew it worked when I parked it there and...
I was out looking for some other parts and came across a stash of oil cooler lines and related parts. I also took a few pictures of the oil cooler lines on Little Red M1009. These are how the stock lines were run and secured. At the front fan shroud. On the left rear exhaust manifold. I hope...
