Hi All,
I searched the forum and didn't find anything about this. My question is if you have to pull someone out from being stuck is there any difference if you pull them where you are going forward or pull them where you are going in reverse? I have a stock 1986 M1009.
Just wondered which way...
I actually had something exactly like this happen to me once. I drove mine and then turned it off for maybe 2 minutes. Tried to start it and nothing just click click click. Left it there and came back about 8 hours later and it started just fine. My lesson was don't stop it and start it up...
Hi All,
I'm thinking about adding a cargo rack to my M1009. I'm looking on Amazon at a CURT 18115 Roof Mounted Cargo Rack. Then probably adding the CURT 18117 Roof Mounted Cargo Rack Extension on it. I plan on adding some reinforcement to the back mount since it's going into fiberglass. Just...
Glad to see this. I will be replacing both of mine this spring. Have already bought the passenger side from Amazon. (Jegs) Funny thing is they don't have the drivers side on Amazon. Will be buying it directly from them i na day or two.
I found this and bought one on Amazon to see how it works. I'll let you know. Thanks for all the reply's.

My M1009 has pretty much stock everything I think. I try to keep it around 65 MPH but I have noticed I've crept up to 75 MPH on the highway. In all my other vehicles and motorcycle I have radar detector in them so I do have a little heavy foot sometimes. LOL
I just spent 15 minutes trying to get the diesel out of a yellow plastic can. Those stupid nozzles are about useless. What have others used to replace that stupid nozzle? I need to buy one that actually works.
Thanks
Hi if there were a HEMP would these internal parts be fried? I was told this is the only electronic part on the M1009 and would be good to have a spare in a Faraday cage?
Sorry newbie here. I'm going to be changing my oil in my M1009 soon. Is this the oil everyone is talking about?
Rotella 550019913 T Triple Protection CJ-4 15W-40 Motor Oil
and this filter?
Bosch D3510 Distance Plus High Performance Oil Filter
Well I just had to replace all 3 belts on my M1009. One busted and figured I might as well get them all replaced at the same time. Since I've just had shoulder replacement surgery I was not able to do it myself. $180 for belts and labor. :(
I agree. Mine was installed when I bought it and I have started it without it being plugged in in the mid 20's but now after trying the heater I'll be plugging mine in if it's below 30 I think.
