    Best Place to buy CUCV Parts

    Saturn Surplus! I think they have the best prices on what they have. I had a flexplate issue too. I replaced it and the tranny is now shifting harder. Got any ideas why this would be guys? I'm still looking for a starter bracket too.

    Is this the right starter for my M1009 CUCV?

    I tried making a couple my self but they cracked in the same spot. I think when you heat up the steal to make the bend it weakens it. I think I would rather get a factory made one. thank you

    Is this the right starter for my M1009 CUCV?

    There is no bracket!!! Man I am glad you mentioned that!!! I bet that is atleast part of the reason the flexplate failed, and the starter teeth are chewed up. Its probebly flexing and moving as I start it!

I bought this thing looking for a cheap diesel, and when I cracked it open I knew I made a good purchace (paid a little too much), but I'm a sucker for finding and troubleshooting a problem and electrical is my background. I think I'll have my hands...

    Newbie! Need some advice.

    Hey people, I just picked up a pretty good m1009 diesel blazer and I want to make it a daily driver. What do I NEED to do to it mechanically, What SHOULD I do, What would be NICE to do? Trying to get some ideas other than what I have been concentrating on. I put FatMat down, the body is...
