    Quick Release Door Hinge Pins

    I don't know how many of you are interested in doing this, but a friend in my local off road club did this to his doors and I couldn't resist a free modification. It only takes about 2 hours to do if you are slow and makes removing the doors 100 times easier. Motor Mayhem » Blog Archive »...

    At that point I consider it a "cucv" not a CUCV.

    Best Lift Kit for m1009?

    I have no complaints about my 4" blocks (other than one being upside down thanks to the previous owner), though I have no experience in the spring vs lift block debate.

    Best Lift Kit for m1009?

    I like my 4" my friends k5 has a 6" and I think it feels to tall for my liking. It really depends on what size tire you want to run and if you want to do some cutting. As for the driveshafts the 4" is really the biggest you can go without changing the u joints to a compound joint or dropping the...

    M1008 pintle hitch

    Sounds like fun!! Just remember those 308 gears aren't very good at heavy loads. Might want to install a tranny temp guage and a pyro.

    Clearence Lights on m1009

    Cool. Sounds like a "fun" job. Anyone got pics of a m1009 with clearance lights? Still trying to decide if I want to do them.

    M1008 pintle hitch

    Thats what mine has and it works great. Mine is all rusted and looks factory. I have towed a 2000lb air compressor with my m1009 and it had no problems with the hitch, just the hills so we had to do about 45.

    Pics of my 1009... to keep or not to keep

    Down here in AZ you can get a 3/4 ton 14 bolt FF rear and a 10 bolt front for around $400. They will bolt right in and the only changes are the rear u-joint and different u bolts. A very easy swap. My buddy in my off-road club did it in a day with the truck on jack stands in the driveway (only...

    What are your coolant temps?

    How can you tell if the radiator needs to be de-crapped other than the look of it? I know mine has lots of build up on the outsides of the tubes, but the temp light has never come on while driving in 95+ temps and running 35"tires with the 308 gears.

    help im stuck in sarasota fl

    Well i cant say for sure, but a little while after I began running a mix of diesel, waste vegetable oil, and transmission fluid, my IP went out with no warning. Just driving down the street and lost power and died within 2 miles. Never had a hard time starting or any symptoms. Now I just run...

    12v or 24v??

    A 24V start uses less amperage draw.

    Best Lift Kit for m1009?

    I think if you lift it at all get the drive shaft checked by a pro. I have a 4" block lift and broke the t-case, tranny case, and adapter when I got the rear end bouncing while off roading. Turns out the stock drive shaft was like 1" short and came out far enough to be out of its bushing and...

    Clearence Lights on m1009

    How would you go about running the wires in the roof as I cant see a way to remove the headliner if there even is one.

    Shift Firmness

    Ok so don't worry about not feeling the 2-3 shift at all. I meant I don't think it slipps at all in 3rd or anything just no feeling to the shift, just the sound of the engine dropping rpms. Do you think it shifts harder in the winter 60-70 degreese out because the coolant is cooler meaning...
