Thanks for the reply. My problem is not fixing the broken clutch but getting access to it in order to fix it. The window is down so when I take the cover off of the tailgate, there is a piece of glass between me and crank assembly. I do not know how to get the window up.
I have the panel off of the tailgate. I'm fairly certain my crank handle clutch needs replaced but before I can do that I have to figure out how to get the window back up.
The window was rolled down when whatever part it was that failed, failed. I cannot find a way inside the tailgate to...
I am replacing the exhaust on my 1009. The link posted by idM1028 was helpful however I have a question I couldn't find the answer to. When you are looking at civilian parts, which Chevy vehicle matches the military equivalent closest (which one should I be ordering parts under)? Is the K5...
McMaster has EPDM and Poly cord but I am unsure of the difference. In another thread someone suggested search for EPDM cord.
Can anyone tell me if I need the more expensive Poly cord or I can get away with EPDM? Thank you.
I got the switch M16TY, thank you. Everything is hooked back up and working fine. Thanks for the advice Cranetruck, I did remove the teflon tape and use the goop instead.
Yeah that seems to be the one. There is a spring and a washer that go between 13 and 7. That's what I'm missing.
I'll take your advice on the teflon tape. The only reason I used it this time was because I couldn't find my paste.
I had a leaking air hose under the dash. I was able to find and replace the hose (part # 8741776) that goes to the air control valve that engages the 6x6 (part # 16B1582726). In trying to find the leak I had the whole assembly apart to tape all of the threads. Also in doing so I had the...
I have towed several trailers home without tags. One didn't have lights at all. So far, knock on wood, I haven't been hassled.
I would suggest just 'going for it', and towing it home. Behind a 1008, it looks official enough that you shouldn't have any problems. If you really want to...
I have an M35, M1009, and a few trailers. I am interested depending on what the cost ends up being. Please keep me in mind when you get the order ready.
I'm following close in your footsteps. I put some filters in today. Waiting on the 51r's to be restocked at WalMart. I have two of these that I'm trying to get going.
8 weeks! 8 weeks it took for my first EUC to go through!!
I had 2 others pending behind that one and they all went through at the same time.
Words cannot express the excitement. Now I have to pick up 2 trailer mounted gensets, 3 m101's and an M35. It's going to be a busy week.
Did anyone else out there get any of the trailer mounted sets that just ended at Ft. Meade? I squeaked away with 2 (I wanted a third for my brother) and I'm pretty happy with the ending price. I was trying for one with the ASK but the price went way higher (still less than 1k) than I was...
Where are these people? I'd be happy to let my 1009 go for that much. I can pick up a new one with less miles, put new tires on it and buy a brand spanking new starter for way less and still have money left. Jeez Louise, please come to PA.
Similar to your first post, I've used mine as a cupholder numerous times. It works quite well. In fact I've had times where I forgot about my cup in the "cupholder" and drove around like that.
It's alive!!
I re-bled the lines, added more fuel cleaned that return fitting.
I don't know. I think this truck is a test of my patience. I'm taking it to a bonfire/shoot out today, we'll see how it works.
My truck is an '84. Right now it's at a friends house (I got lucky and he lived near where it broke down). I'm going to swing by tomorrow and pull the hose and the return fitting. I'll try cleaing that out with carb cleaner and see where that gets me.
I did have the fitting off and I was...
My truck has once again left me on the side of the road. I hadn't had it running in a couple of weeks but it started up without hesitation. A short drive to school ended short when the engine started to slow. I pressed the pedal down more and more to the point that it was floored. The truck...
