I decided to install in the dash where the military radio mounting bracket was. The dash was already all hacked up here for the brackets and I didn't feel comfortable resizing the black plastic instrument cluster face plate -- it seems that all that plastic is old and brittle. Also, as...

Intriguing... I'm going to need to tear more stuff apart and check out that spot...

Well, I've been avoiding this for some time now but I'm finally fed up with driving around without tunes. I picked up a standard sized Clarion AM/FM/CD/MP3/USB head unit on amazon for about $50. I hate to hack up my truck to install this thing in the conventional location, but that's about the...

Crawl over the back seat with a phillips screwdriver. There are about 15 screws holding a cover in place on the center ~2/3 of the tailgate. You'll have to take that off and do some exploring to figure out if you've got a broken clutch or not.

I also run 33x12.5R15 BFG A/T on stock wheels and I LOVE THEM. They fit fine with no modifications.

I would replace the fusible links with fusible links. These are designed to blow out and protect the rest of your electrical system -- which is a good thing. All the parts are about $20-25 at NAPA. You'll just need some 12GA fusible link wire, 12-to-8GA step down butt connectors, and some...

Nice looking rig!

What about water? Is there any concern with there being some condensation or other water in the oil? I'm thinking about a setup like this to filter WMO for belnding in the tank on my CUCV.

Your symptoms suggest that the problem is in the cirucit(s) that energize the glow plugs. Following the diagnostic procedures in the TM would have had you check the resistance on each glow plug to determine if they were the fault or not, potentially saving you the cost and time of replacing...

Also a set of brass punches are on my list for the next trip to Northern Tool.

I was thinking a slide hammer might be handy for getting that inner seal off... any reason not to use that? It will make a nice addition to my tool collection 8) Good advice on that spring - I definitely don't want that getting into my bearings!

I like the videos!

Personally, I would scuff them up with a scotchbrite pad and hit them with flat black Rustoleum spray paint. But that's just me :) I recently did this with my stock M1009 wheels (except with wire cup/wheel brushs instead) and it turned out to be a lot more work than I expected, but I was...

And honking three times.

Please pardon my mechanical ignorance here... but are there any tricks to removing the seal that holds in the inner wheel bearing? According to the TM, I need to remove the inner seal (18) but I'm not sure exactly how to do that. In my picture I assume that #2 is the seal but #1 needs to come...

I picked one up at O'Reilly. The brand is Performance Tool and it's model/PN W1270. It's the six-tooth model for a 1984 M1009.

Welcome! Nice looking rig! Gotta love that u-haul trailer :-)

Better than photography...

Excellent find! Obviously you've got better searching skills than me. I spent quite a bit of time searching the forums but must have gone past that thread based on its title. NAPA SER 2770 LISLE 27400
