The pintle on a m1009 is good for nothing but looks! If your going to haul anything get a class 4 hitch installed. Those pintles will rip right off the truck. Do a search on here and you will see.
Starts ok in 40 degree weather! If there 24 volt like you said then im only getting 12 volts to them they cant be working to full potential! I will switch them to ac60's im going to half to switch every connector though. I wonder why they used a hummer harness on the motor instead of the m1009...
I figured it might be a humvee motor, i was told they put gas in the old one and cooked it! They must have thrown a humvee motor in. So i should switch the glow plugs and connectors?
I have a m1009 with a depot replaced motor, and the glow plugs ends are not a blade type but a post or stud??? This is like my 10th 6.2 diesel and ive never seen that before. Any thoughts there all working great right now.
I ended up buying a m1008 of a member on here! Im going to throw a overdrive trans in it. I looked for a decent m880 but they were almost the same price as the m1008 i bought! Maybe i will get one in the future. Thanks for all the input though.
We have helpers because its all down town chicago high rise work! So your working with big stuff. Plus you have to park a mile away and its easier to have a kid run to the truck and get something so i dont have to stop what im doing! But there not with me every day they wont pay 2 guys to change...
What scares me is how **** dumb some of these kids are now. Boss hires me a helper to help on the Plumbing van! Well were on guy # 4 in 2 years. Its tough stuff go to van get what i tell them to get, Clean up and put tools away, show up to work on time, dont use drugs, be respectful towards me...
As i have said before we have stupid adults now because kids dont get to play with bb guns, m80's, fireworks, go carts, etc all those activities would thin the herd of stupid kids thus we would have less stupid adults!!!!

Picked up this m1009 from Ft Hood 4,000 miles on the clock looks to be correct, I completely repainted inside and out, Installed a power tailgate,all new weatherstrip and ryno lined the interior. Here's some pics of her. I like to see pic's of other members rides so i thought i would put these...
