Somewhere along the line I ended up with a cracked frame on my M1102 trailer. Not sure how I am going to fix it or if I want to. It must have been like that for a while. I hauled a lot of firewood in that trailer. This is the first one I ever seen broken. Like my Dad used to say I could break...

Sezzo I think that this is the answer we were looking for. Let me know how to proceed.
I dove right in after church and took the entire column apart and cleaned it. I also spent an hour scrubbing the steering wheel. I want it to look as OEM as possible and I installed the key sensor back in the column. I think the column looks great. I am not going to paint the column. I will be...
I have done my research and by disassembling another CUCV steering column and studying the contacts in question on my current column I can affirm that it is a key in ignition sensor and would not have worked on a CUCV because it does not have door jam switches to complete the ground to active...
I think that thing that I have on the towel is for the key in ignition buzzer. I never seen that on a CUCV. I am wondering if being this was built 8/83 as a first-year production M1009 if that was eliminated. Same as this having chrome wing vent handles on the front doors. I had it 25 years +...

I googled steering column rebuilders.
This is the piece that I am unknowing of. I still can’t get the lock cylinder out. No screw and I watched a dozen you tube videos. First CUCV I seen without a stew holding the lock cylinder in.
I really struggled getting the snap ring off the lock plate. I am done for today. I may contact the rebuilder again or try and figure out how this little contact goes in place.
Well rebuilding the column has become more of a challenge then I anticipated. The lock cylinder on this M1009 is not held in with a retaining bolt and I can’t get the lock cylinder out. I have a conundrum with a gadget that provides the ground for the horn. I was going to send this column out to...
Let d begin by removing the horn pad.
Next the 3 torx 20 screws holding the horn ground contact adapter in place.
Then using a snap ring pliers remove the center safety lock. now I must go to the barn and get the steering wheel puller. Well puller set for anything. A few pictures for memory...
The work bench in the basement has been cleaned and prepped for surgery.
The Saginaw steering column is what I will be operating on. Just a go thru clean, and lube everything.
First things first and then onto the procedure.
I have an email into a drive line company. I am going out and getting driveshaft out of my barn and dissecting it for measurements. Not today but maybe Monday.
Does anyone know if this is the correct slip joint for the M1009. Chevy GMC Ford and Dodge 4X4 1310 Series Transfer Case Slip yoke for New Process 205, 208, 241, 243, 246, 261, 263 with 32 spline output (dennysdriveshaft.com)
