Paint
I would guess that you didn't wait long enough to topcoat. That would be more than 4hrs less than 24hrs. Yes, if you want to topcoat AFTER 24 hrs (without sanding) you will need to have added a hardener to the primer or there is a chance the paint will lift. Two things to do to...
m1009
KerryAnn, the green truck is CRUSTY!! JUNK. There is no reason to buy this truck! Most dealers just buy them and power wash then flip....the same holds true for Motorsource. I have bought to trucks from them and they go over them very lightly clean them up and sell them...that's what they...
I've exhausted my knowledge and looked over the wire diagram and TM's so time to ask for help.
Problem: No Gen 1 light with key in the "on" position on start up
What I know:
no power at the 2 plug brown exciter wire on the Gen 1 with key "on"

Urban M1009 Progress

I kinda like the look of the non-camo grill and bumpers in the 383 green. I think the next NATO camo truck I do will sport this paint scheme. the trucks also looks good with blacked out grill and bumpers. But I never did that with the 383 green NATO scheme. The last trucks were urban camo with...
Tires
Yep, they are nice. I have wanted to see a set on an M1009 in a 32/11.50/15 and that's what they look like. Taller & wider than a 31/10.50/15. I have found that the 33/12.50./15 look a little "balloonish" and the 33's tend to rub lock to lock and kiss the fenders lower corner. I would...
