Here are some post related to this question that should help, does not matter the model of CUCV. You would check everything the same for anything that is 25+ years old.

First of all it is a 1984 M1009, not 1983 as that model year CUCV does not exist. Date of manufacture is not always the year, all CUCV model years are 1984-1987 where the 1984 model year was manufactured starting in the fall of 1983 as a 1984 model year.
