The wiring harness only covers the headlights. The factory setup powers the headlights through the light switch. The aftermarket harness allows the switch to power a relay that powers the lights directly from the battery reducing the load on the circuit. As i found the old resistors i tossed...

I had this issue with my M1009. I head out for work at 4am and one morning , half way to work, I had no headlights. I tend to drive my truck pretty regularly so I took the nuclear approach. Order yourself the heavy duty light harness from LMC. I believe i paid something like 25 bucks for it...

I found the part. Asp wholesale Looks like a good source for alternator components too.

I'll have to see if I can find specs on that bolt and then maybe I can find something on McMaster that will work like that.

I don't think that will be secure enough. But thank you for the suggestion.

Hey gang. Just replaced my starter bolts. Typical bolt shear situation. I noticed when replacing the bracket on the front that the stud is sheared off. It has enough starter stud left to just pass thru the bracket. The bracket is up against the starter and all bolts are tight. I should be good...

Im wondering if an insulator is missing or in the wrong place.

When the alternator was rebuilt, did YOU rebuild it, or did you have a shop rebuild it?

Just purchased the Duramax base. I can confirm it has both WIF and fuel heater as well as primer on top. Looking for the pigtail connectors next. I'm OCD about messy wires. 😉

That is a sweet setup.

That's a good looking rig!

Thanks for the info. That will be helpful in finding an appropriate base. I really appreciate it.

I'm really interested in this topic. I have the old square style base on my 1009. I have been looking pretty hard at fuel filter setups since my base started leaking. I was actually looking at some of the setups for the 6.5. I think one of my main questions is, can I find a newer style base and...

My 1009 does the same thing. It shouldn't be an issue.

If the weather cooperates with me I'll poke around some more this weekend and report back.

Both of my alternators are charging. The voltage on the batteries while charging is over 14.5. The gen 1&2 lights operate properly on key on. Gen 1 stays on untill I giver her a little throttle. Then promptly goes out and doesn't come back on. The other day my amp meter died on me so I'm waiting...

Hello all. I'm currently taking my time breathing new life into a 1984 M1009. It has been mostly untouched. No wire nests or hack jobs. That also means it hasn't been maintained. Go figure. I'm tracing a parasitic draw somewhere in the system. Alternators are definitely charging. The...

I would like to make an amendment to this by saying the applicable ORV rules are section 5 policy 18.01 and section 4 policy 126. Both can be looked up on expresslane.org The direct number to Special Plates in BR is 225-925-7031 If you do not specify when submitting paperwork that you want to...

I think you'll be happier putting it on a flat trailer. A friend of mine volunteered his 7.3 turbo diesel rig to tow mine. Keep in mind the trailer weight as well as the truck you'll be loading.

Hi slantflat , I recently did the same thing but used a flat trailer. what condition are the tires in? If the tires look like they are dry and cracking, I would be cautious. What will you be using to tow it?
