    M920 fire extinguisher placement

    Thanks for the info. I'll do a little more research and pick one out shortly. I have a big fear of engine fires after my dad told me a story how a fuel line on one of his muscle cars back in the 60's decided to split open over a nice hot engine. Fortunately, he was at a light next to a gas...

    Oshkosh FMTV

    Glad someone point that out. It seems that most people are unaware in the difference in cargo capacity off-road vs. on-road. Someone should make up a shirt that says "My Deuce Carries 5 Tons, Ask Me How." I'm just nerdy enough to wear it!

    M920 fire extinguisher placement

    I have a U.S. Gov't Property marked one in the bracket. I like the originality. I "borrowed" another original one from my dad, but he now wants it back. From what I've read about halon I'm not sure I'd use that one anyhow. I will be getting a good quality new one shortly, and yes, I will be...

    M920 fire extinguisher placement

    My friend is refitting a F450 with a custom built bed for his tree company. When he saw the extinguisher mounted on the floor of my M1009 he pulled out the DOT checklist and pointed out that it met the requirement. I said "Cool" and never told him it was empty, ha! Oh, and I will be getting a...

    Wife takes the M1009 for a test drive

    I've never had problems with short test drives here either. It's one of the advantages of living in the sticks. Once I got mine fully tagged and insured I put alot of miles on it real quick. It really is hard to turn around and head back home. The only thing I really hate is the price of...

    Vehicle to Trailer Harness M1009

    I've got plug covers and I do have a receptacle, but one with the wrong wires. I've been trying to avoid splicing. I normally have no problem locating what I need. I think my Dad's 1009 might be missing a trailer plug real soon! Or, I might have to check out Eriks. Thanks.

    Vehicle to Trailer Harness M1009

    I have actively been trying to locate a 1009 vehicle side trailer plug receptacle for a while. It doesn't seem like a part that people part out. Pintle hitches, no prob. Plug covers, no prob. Plug with pigtails, problem. If anyone happens to have an extra, PLEASE, let me know! Considering...

    Wife takes the M1009 for a test drive

    Nice truck and pretty wife! You're lucky on both of those! The only female I have been able to ride along on my test drives was my mother. In the end she thought it was fairly pleasant and "nothing like the deuce". (She really didn't like the Mother's Day ride along with the whistler turbo.)...

    ste ice

    I know someone that has a few, had him give me a tutorial once last year. It's kinda an interesting machine, but didn't think it had much modern application. Glad someone is getting some use out of them.

    Need help with 09 window crank install

    I just finished this job myself last month. The TM, I believe, says to only lube the rollers and not the channel itself. When I disassembled it originally, the channel on the bottom of the glass and the short one on the door were gummed up with a heavy grease and lots of grit. In the end I...

    Antenna Ball?

    Looks kinda like a shift knob from a M38, M38A1. The one on my pops M38A1 pulls off soo easy that most of the time he drives it with no knob at all and the knob just rolls around on the floor.

    M1009 GA to FL

    Welcome to the '09 club! You'll enjoy it for sure. As far as sand, I vaccume mine out and have grime and grit appear as soon as it goes out on the road. Also, don't forget to do the Doghead starter relay. Enjoy! :driver:
