I have an M-1009 that, as the title implies, has been having some issues. Last Saturday, I was up in Anchorage when I started having a grinding noise when I would fire up my Blazer. A very good friend and technical consultant told me to investigate the starter and sure enough I had a broken...

I have a M-1009 and I am missing a bushing in my shift linkage. In TM 9-2320-289-34 on page 363-364 (5-3 & 5-4) it shows the linkage leading into the transmission. In that diagram I am missing the part numbered 15 but in the parts listings there isn't part number for it and NAPA here is of no...

I was looking at buying this but I think that I need to exercise discretion...unfortunately. So if anyone is interested check it out it is can be found by searching for Fairbanks auto auctions.

My issues with my computer and camera appear to be over so my post begins. Some of you may have seen my post titled, "should I?" and I can now change that too, I am on the way...slowly...very slowly. My old girl "M-1009" has been towing a 6x12 trailer towards the west coast from...

I am planning on dropping my transmission pan and changing the fluid before I drive out to Alaska. The thought of another controlled spill of the transmission fluid, while fun and exciting ;-), is making me think of getting a replacement pan with a drain plug and maybe a temp sender. The pro's...

I have been doing a fair amount of research lately in preparation for my move and one question that I keep hearing is about transmission coolers. As I understand the TM's, all of the CUCV's have them, but I hear a lot of people (some of them have recommended coolers for my journey...2500 miles...

Here are some pictures of my center console project for my M-1009. I still need to mount it but it feels comfortable with it just sitting in there. The height seems about perfect but it does crowd the 4wd shifter a little, enough to make it a little awkward to shift it but not unusable. I...

I have an M-1009 and I just got orders to Valdez Alaska. The government isn't going to ship a vehicle and let me drive the other one and they won't ship firearms so driving there seems like it makes the most sense for me. I am trying to decide if my blazer will make it (I think it will, runs...

I just got and installed a take out speedometer to replace the one I had broken. The one I had just put in is about 15 mph faster than what I am actually going. I still have the original tires so gearing shouldn't be the issue and I searched the tech manual but I didn't find any answers in...

I learned that it is a bad idea to take the gauge cluster apart in my M-1009. I was trying to get to the bulbs and the face plate of the speedometer fell off leaving a tral of wire to the needle and looked like a broken tape measurer. Of course after this happened i went and read the tech...
