Someting that helps the mud to not stick is a light coating of WD40 I wish I had time to go play!!

Not sure if these were mentioned, electric wire and a switch jumper cables The ones that fit the military hook up are the best, I have a pair with civ clamps on one end but carry a military adapter that the clamps hook to. Mostly used to help some one else assorted straps and winch...

Really nice seats!! I started work today on rebuilding the rear bumper and winch mount.

I agree their are many variables that come into play. I use it as a visual reminder and have a mark on the face at the point my truck feels iffy. The inner ear can play tricks on you especially when you are on the down ward slope of an sharp angle. Mine is very accurate and is easily adjusted by...

I'll watch how much TMI I post. Thanks every one the compliments. I'm partial to the rat block my self!! What I said is true and if I had not been in the process of shutting down, but a full head on hit at that speed I think their would have been damage. I expected some. My trucks frame...

Tmi Took a couple of minutes off to post. Thanks again for the compliments! Mad Max is close to the truth around here. Between the crazy drivers who have never heard of a drivers manual or license, the wild life also doesn't know the rules of the road :cookoo:, speaking of that. I was...

Some of the mod's I have to agree about the ground, my wife pounded that into my head for years till it reached what gray matter I have custom stuff: well the whole truck is now! Front 12 volt 9,000 lb military Tulsa winch and the rear has a Warn 24 volt 12,000 Hmmwv winch. 24...

Thanks! and for the compliments too!! I've never been accused of being a troll or a tease before. I have to work some time or the other and I'm not used to this forum type so its taking me a wee bit to upload my images. My truck is alot of old tech stuff, well most of it any way. ummmm...

This forum is not one I'm used to. I'll be back shortly with more images and info then you can stand!, I'll have you crying from boredom in no time!! :whistle:

Hi, I'm a long time lurker that decided to post and I'm not sure if my highly modified 85 m1009 goes in this forum or not. Duncan

I'm a long time lurker and I wanted to say thanks for all the info your web site has helped me with over the years.

out of the question .... riggghhhht!

I have had collapsed hoses for no other reason then age, but, that doesn't cause a front hub to get hot to the touch. Usually thats bearings, grease, or over tight hub nuts.

Seen a few Canadian M1009's and M1008's, not normal mod's for them or any one else I'm aware of, thinking its TV. .

Many expedient fixes date way back to the earliest vehicles and most are workable today, just a few I've used: A stiff clothes hanger wired to the windshield wiper when the motor goes bad .. push-pull, Womens hose as a V belt, Don't ask :-? Large piece of wood between the frame rail and...

On my M 101 its 3 3/16's and on my M 416 its a bit smaller by a 1/8. Depends on which company manufactured them and what year but as a rule of thumb their all about the same. Just a FYI and probably something you all ready know, the 101 is different then a 416's in how its made and shouldn't...

Hope no one was hurt. I'll pay for a drivers door ID plate. PM me if your sell it.

I bought a great air tool with multiple heads for installing nutserts on ebay. Well worth the $150, but I use it alot too. IMHO, stay away from the manual type install tools. They don't seem to tighten down enough and the nutsert will work lose in a short amount of time. The military nutserts I...
