    What model K5 Blazer is the M1009?

    While it doesn't help with trim levels, the VIN cards can be useful. http://service.gm.com/dealerworld/vincards/ FWIW despite the fact that the M1009 is peddled as a 3/4 ton, decoding the VIN has it as a half ton.

    700R4 and NP205?

    The one possible advantage the 208 has over the 205 is a deeper low range. 2.61 to 1.

    CUCV alternator symptoms, diagnosis and fix.

    In trying to sound so technical, he failed to realize that he showed his ignorance.

    Crap. Found this broken large bolt in driveway, with pic.

    This just serves me as a reminder. Ordered 5 bolts and 3 nose brackets a minute or 5 ago.

    That is certainly a starter bolt, without a doubt.

    See what happens when you don't pack the brakes.

    Radiator Fan Shut off

    Why not use a variable pitch fan. You can flatten it out in the water and adjust the pitch for needed cooling out of the water. If all else fails, recruit a Cuban to set you up.

    22-460 and 22-461. Almost guarantee weak grounds. Turn signals work?

    Front inner axle seal

    The entire metal retainer needs to be pulled. Banshee365 did a nice write up on the front axle.

    This is the express lane. FWIW just bought 3 more plates so I can up the truck count now!

    Posted this first pic before but now the M1010 is a match. I'm out of plates so I can't buy anymore trucks until I get more plates.

    CUCV alternator symptoms, diagnosis and fix.

    Since this is a front page topic, what fails in the alternator (Alt 1) that will cause the gen 1 light to come on? The higher the engine revs, the brighter the light. Batt 1 shows 12.7V while not running and 13.8 while running. Odd.

    Reverse / Backup Camera

    They are great as along as you consider them a supplement to what you have, not a replacement.

    Be safe Phil. Will be interesting to see what that 1 in the pentagon means.
