The truck is now in the tent. I have washed it and let it air dry. While it was out I put the tarp down on the ground to keep the moisture coming up into the tent. I masked off the areas I would rather not paint and then did a wipe down with paint thinner and then a tack cloth to get it ready...

The fun now begins. I used a DA sander with 180 grit to prep the surface of the truck and take off all the stencils. Some of the spots needed a little courser paper but I finished completely with 180. All the door windows were removed so I could paint the entire door. I also did the door jams...

This is just some of the parts I got for the project. I have spent a lot of time sandblasting and painting. The sandblaster booth was one of the best items I got and has made these projects so much easier. The rear got a nice M13 Decon kit, The antennas are both MX-6707 bases. The stock jack and...

The rear plate was attached using a standard GM full size plate bracket that went over the fuel filler. It allows me to flip the plate up during parades or car shows.

I wanted to go with an MP theme on the truck but didn't want to put a red and blue bar on it. I did settle for an amber rotator bar to fit the period. Since it sits on top of the truck I also decided to put the Solargizer on top to keep it out in the sun as much as possible. The truck came with...

Tony, a friend of mine that has an M1009 supplied a ton of parts for the truck. Again it was in great shape but a 30 year old truck needs little things. This is the EBay radio tray Tony ordered for me before I even made the deal for the truck along with the spare wheel from Kublos and misc other...

I wanted to get a truck to drive while I painted My M109a3 in the spring. I bought this M1009 3 weeks ago from a nice couple in Michigan and started working on it right away. The body of the truck is almost perfect with just a couple little blips here and there. Here is the truck when I bought...

Hi all, I just installed a complete VIC-1 system in my M109a3. I bought the system (Refurbished), all the cables, Speakers, Mics and of course some NOS H-161 Headsets. Everything works great in the truck but the one headset has no mic audio and the other will cut out once in a while. I had...

hey everyone. I have owned my truck for 3 years now and did nothing but normal maintenence. This year I went out on the limb and changed the turbo, spin on filters and tons of other stuff. Now since the last oil change 4 weeks ago I have been having nothing but problems. First the c turbo I...

I'm so digging what you are doing and I'm getting so many ides. This brake light switch you have listed, I love it but the link is a dead link and I would really want my reverse lights running off the tranny instead of a toggle switch. I have searched and can't find any of the parts needed. Any...

Hey guys, I'm getting ready for flipping the hubs for singles, New wheel cylinders, brake shoes, hardware, soft lines and master cylinder and have just one question, What is the torque spec for the 3" axle nut? I'm not very good with the TM's. I'm gonna try the Mrap rims (wanted a3 rims but $$$)...

Looks like I'll be coming (99% positive) down on Thursday afternoon with one guest and camping till Sunday. I'll be bringing my M109 and inverter generator (nice and quiet-ish) plus tons of other camping stuff. May have two other Deuces coming with me from Niagara Falls.

Yes I'm only a couple minutes away from the base.

Thanks for the info.

Hello guys, Just got my first deuce last month. It is an M109a3 and I love it. I've been tinkering around with it since I got her home and now I would like to find some other MV/Deuce owners in the area and see what they do with there trucks and see if they do any other events that are cool. I...

Hi Everyone, I just got my first MV a few days ago and I'm starting to go through everything. I just tried the heater in the box and I can't get it to fire up. It's a Stewart Warner Model 10530A24 and I was just wondering if anyone has a manual, service spec, check list or just any advise...

I just got my first MV 4 days ago, an M109a3, and I need to change all the fluids and filters and it's a bit over whelming so this is a great help especially for a noob. All I need to find is an air filter for the truck. Thank You.
