    Ste-ice ?

    My neighbor recently purchased a m1009 that has been converted to all 12 volt. He askedme what the com port under the dash was for and I told him. Then then question was posed: Will the ste-ice work on his now 12 volt truck? I would guess not due to himonly having (1) alt., (1) battery or am I...

    Seat swapping in M1009 question answered...

    I found a really good drivers seat at the bone yard; I used the old seat base and everything else fell into place. The seat was out of a 85' s-10 pick-up. The only bad side is that the seat does not fold forward. The plus is that I do have a reclining seat. And its cloth instead of vynal, a...

    1009 Rear Window Fix Updates?

    Try a front power window motor instead of the suburban motor. It will fit with some work and imagination. A buddy of mine did his civi blazer and it works fine. If you can find a civi motor from an old blazer at a junk yard it will be cheaper or........there's always _bay!

    Non "Made In China" parts list.

    Amazing how the U.S. says it won WWII.......Who really won in the long run...Japan! They own a heck of alot here. I'm a firm believer that all Americans have to support ourselves first and feel that companies like GE should have major tariffs placed on their products that have moved from the USA...

    Interesting article on HMMWV recapitalization

    Well, the military is currently getting rid of all the 6.2L hmmwv's and replacing them with the 6.5L engines/duramax if my source has told me correctly. If you ever happen to drive by or into a few of the DRMO lots, just look at all the hmmwv's they have sitting there. Granted most will be...

    Exterior Latex/Acrylic House Paints

    Just got done rolling the Home Depot carc substitute in the back of the M1009. I'm happy with it. I put (3) coats on and it looks real good. I also did a test spot using the brown carc substitute from page #1, I'm impressed, it is soo close to a perfect match for the money. Now I have to go...

    Draining rear battery

    Just made them up. I went to a local shop and they crimped the ends for me since they had a "big" crimp tool. Really it's easy, I just took the old cables off and took them with me to NAPA and got the same length. They didn't have the right crimp tool.

    Exterior Latex/Acrylic House Paints

    I think it looks alright. I just rolled the back end of my m1009 and used a small roller, I know looks arent important back there. I waiting to spray the rest of the truck due to rain as well.
