Hi Folks,
The exhaust system on my M1009 is rotten and I've been exploring options.
I see Summit do what looks like a good kit [WLK-89005], thinking to pair with a couple of Dynomax Super Turbo Mufflers [WLK-17731].
Anyone fitted an 89005 kit? How good a match for the headers/collectors?
I...
Hey Murph,
Can we get a couple more photos of the rear rails and tent mountings please?
Were there any additional braces/weight spreaders added to the fibre roof?
Cheers,
Alec.
Hi Folks,
Well I've gone for a similar one to the BM one, but from Summit instead.
I'll fire up a few photos once I'm done.

Can't find the info in 20, 34/P, GM52D etc.
Going to pull a couple of injectors to check them (running on 7cyl at idle), I'd like to have a few washers spare.....
Alec.
Hi Guys,
Thanks for the responses.
I saw the $40 cooler kits with push-on connectors and i'm not impressed with the look of them! It has to be barb fittings and worm drive/O-Clips as a minimum!
The BM Racing one looks fine, good recommendation.
Money-wise, up to $150-200 max I'd say.
I see...
Hi Folks,
I run a mildly civilianised '84 M1009 (6.2 Diesel, 12v Converted, 700R4, 10-Bolt 6-Lugs).
I do a bit of towing (up to 3500kg trailer + load) around Northern Scotland (hilly in parts) and would like to give the trans a bit more protection. I don't thrash it and let it do it's own...
