    Clunk and Bump while in 4WD HI

    I was out with the wife today slow riding on some pretty steep logging and gas well roads in my 09. Twice, on seperate occasions, while going UP a pretty good incline in 4WD HI,, I noted a clunk and felt a slight bump under my feet coming (seemingly) from the front end area. Hubs were locked...

    CUCV Build... Here We Go Again...

    That was an amazing thread and an AMAZING rig!! This is probably a stupid question (knowing now that your could probably fabricate a scale model of the Eiffel Tower with just a couple of pieces of scrap angle iron) but did you have to fabricate brackets for those front seats to mount to your...

    cucv m1009 antenna mounting bracket help.

    Hey I just wanted to say thanks to all the guys who offered insights into this problem, I got em mounted. Took a 5/16 bolt. 2 of the Rivnuts were loose and would rotate and were also had fairly rusted threads, so I spot welded them into place and then re-tapped them without any problems...

    cucv m1009 antenna mounting bracket help.

    I found a set of 2 on ebay for $30, I think I got lucky on that. They are in great condition, and only needed 2 due to having only 2 mounting spots already tapped.

    I apologize in advance if this has been answered in a previous thread, and if this needs to be deleted, mod please do so. Just after searching for several hours, still can't find the info...:confused: I just received 2 of the standard antenna mounting brackets without the mounting bolts, I...

    M1009 roof rack

    I have had several designs for a rack going through my head. I have 2 antennae mounts on the rear panels of my m1009, and my latest thought is to weld mount the rear supports of the rack to these and bolt the front supports of the rack to the roof of the cab, so all mounts would be on metal...

    Howdy from Arkansas

    Thanks, what is the MVPA? and yes I got one of Eugene's 09s. I think he still has 2 left. If you haven't met him, he's a real nice guy. He's got a trailer that I'm considering getting if he hasn't got it sold. As far as the 100 mile convoy, I would be interested in hearing about that, tho...

    Holes at rear of shell above antennae mounts.

    Hi, I searched for this on forums and couldn't find anything so if this is in the wrong place, my apologies. I have a quarter sized hole in the fiberglass roof, just above where the antenna mounts are on both sides of my m1009. I believe this is where the wires from the antennae went into the...

    Thanks for the welcomes! @Porkysplace, thanks for the site info... the seller tried to explain the blackout system to me and I think I did it correctly but you never know. I will check out the manuals and see if I can figure it out. If they still don't work, it should still be a relatively...

    Hello Everyone, I am a newbie to this site and to MVs in general. I picked up a '85 cucv M1009 today, and am already in LUV! It needs some work, ie no lights seem to work, needs some minor cosmetic repairs, have to get bonded title, etc, but it drives great and engine seems in good repair. I...
