    M1009 Runs Cold

    Recently put in a temp gauge and sensor, replacing the idiot light sensor. Found that my truck runs cold. Temp never goes above 140*F. Even after extended periods of driving around the city. Ambient temp is 60-70s so it's not like it's too cold outside. My brother's 1008 runs around 180F. Is...

    14b on a M1009 Issue

    Putting a 4.5" rear lift on my 1009 with a 14b axle. The bolts that hold the u joint strap are contacting the end of the driveshaft and preventing it from turning. We are thinking we need to use shims to make the yoke point up a little to solve this issue. I am wondering if anyone has any...

    14bolt Axle Swap into M1009

    Planning to do a 14b swap into a M1009. Have some questions. 14b came from a '84 suburban. Do i need to move the spring perches? 14b has an open diff with 4.10 gears. I would like to keep the gearing but install a locker. Would this be a compatible locker? I am unsure whether I would also need...

    Coolant Temperature probe and gauge

    Found a few threads on this but still have some questions This is for a second temperature display on the dash in addition to the "idiot light"I think is the overheat light but not sure. I have not seen a part # for a probe into the engine block to read the temperature. I took a guess and...

    M1009 Horn Problems with hack job wiring

    New to me M1009. According to previous owner it used to be a cop car. Previous owner removed most of the extra cop wiring. Horn does not work. Horn was spliced to a 24v source from the fuse box. This 24v wire was probably attached to some kind of relay (had loose ends under the dash)... not...

    M1009 - What is this?

    http://i755.photobucket.com/albums/xx191/Russm1/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_20140718_111205.jpg Attached to the engine side of the firewall. The blue wire is maybe a ground? Looks like some kind of relay? Any ideas?
