    Spin on fuel filter mod

    My stock fuel filter housing is dumping out massive amounts of fuel so it's time to upgrade to a spin on filter. I've already pulled out the pressure sensor, tapped it, and pipe doped a screw to go in it but it turns out it's leaking from the back. I've already made a plan to use the NAPA 4770...

    M1009 alternator issues

    Alright, new batteries installed and a new gauge cluster. Since then now my GEN 2 light will not turn off and my GEN 1 light is very lightly flashing but not flasing in any kind of pattern. Also my lights to light up my cluster at night don't work but I think that's because of the LEDs I bought...

    M1009 roll bar fabrication

    I'm just wondering if anyone on here has gone as far as to build a roll bar for the back portion of thier M1009. I've been toying with the idea but with searching online and finding no results, it leads me to believe there may be an issue with it. I'm wanting it to be able to put on a bikini top...

    M1009, plenty of moving air but no heat.

    So the heater in my 09 isn;t working at all. The blower is blowing hard and the linkage is working correctly to open and close the flap to let in the warm air (or os I think). What could be my issues? I looked in the TM's but couldn't find any steps to diagnose my problem. I'm not losing coolant...

    Fuel system oddity, can;t seem to get help from TM

    I know I may be blowing up the forum today but this has been bugging me for some time now but since she was running fine after hard starts I haven't been too concerned about it. My M1009 is missing a connector to some part of the fuel system that I just can't seem to find in the TM diagrams...

    Civi 2WD axle in the back of my M1009, I need to match up my ratios

    Alright, here's my problem. I bought this M1009 a little over a year ago and after driving it for about a month my trans went out and I had roller bearings pouring out of my transfer case. Luckily the man I bought it from was nice enough to give me a TC out of another 09 and I found the trans...

Anyone have any idea if this will...

    M1009 tire size question

    I have an M1009 with 31/10.5/15 tires on it at the moment and am wondering if I can upgrade to a 33" tire without needing to put a lift in. If anyone else has done this I am wondering if theres any rub issues off road or when turning. I really don't want to spend the $ for 33"s then end up...

    M1009, missing mechanical fuel pump

    Well I bought this M1009 about 7 months ago and have been working out a lot of rather large bugs but seem to have it running correctly now(for the most part at least). The guy I bought it from said he bought it with the mechanical fuel pump not working but instead of replacing it he put in a...
