This is excellent, Thank You Sir

Personal experiance, Clean and check the engine ground connection, clean and check the battery cable connections, make sure your starter has it's heat shield and above all carry-out the Doghead relay modification. If you can unplug the starter relay it is not the Doghead mod. Also, a bad...

I purchased an M1009 from Motorsource Inc. this last April. Very happy with the service, Jeff was a straight-shooter and they personally own and use CUCVs. They state that all the CUCVs they sell are from Southern Nevada, Kalifornia and Arizona. The M1009 I purchased from them was/is super...

Congrats, a great looking truck. Welcome to SS. Steve

QuickSilver, thanks for the heads-up on the AC 60G glow-plugs. idM1028, I just replaced all the glow plugs in my M1009 (no different than a spark plug change), I did think about a Turbo when doing this, but not anytime soon! LOL Steve

Cool! I like the waterpump glove.......... Steve

Albersondh, I e-mailed the Dealership this morning for the transport contact information. As soon as they get back with me I will forward it on to you. Steve

3 months ago I had an M1009 delivered from the Northern Chicago area to the Cadillac Michigan area, cost was $400 total! I'm just saying. Steve

Hey epitts, that looks great. Good job and congrats on trying something you have never done before (painting a vehicle). Steve

If you purchased and are using the relay specified in the "Doghead Relay Mod." the relay is most likely fine if it's brand new......(just my $.02). I have had similar starter issues since I purchased my M1009 two months ago. I have done the Doghead relay mod. As well as replaced my headlight...

Congrats on the fine M1009 and welcome aboard.

Contracts, I'm in the same boat........work, work, work, no time

Good question Gunwriter. I have a WARN 9000 lb. winch a friend gave me that I also was wondering the best way to wire up. From the research I have done I figure I will just wire it to the #1 battery and keep an eye on it's charge as compared to the #2 battery. Steve

Thanks for the socket size and part numbers Ranchhopper. Steve :-D

Son and I My son and I have been spending time together working on our new 1985 M1009 (39,000 miles on the odometer). This vehicle is from Souther Arizona and came to me with an extra 50 lbs. of very fine dust! Anyway, in the course of installing all new switches in the steering column (kind of...

Great documentation. Thank you Steve

Volt Charging Meter Resistor Repair UPDATE: This repair technique isn't reliable. Yes I did get to to work, but the repair is not robust. Now to find a replacement resistor! Steve In the course of going through all of my M1009's wiring I found the 330 Ohm resistor across the back of the...
