No lie there !!! If my 1009 disappeared into the vacuum of space, my wife wouldn't be happier. She really dislikes my truck AND the fact that it is parked outside for all the world to see. She will even ride in it, let alone buy me parts for it. Hell, if I buy parts for it I have to listen...

Below is a picture of the tail of the transfer case in my 1009, driveshaft yoke seal. It is leaking a pretty good amount of fluid and needs to be changed. I have two questions please. First, what is the correct part number of the seal assembly?? Two, can it be removed and the new one...

I have one and I think i got mine at Home Depot, as it is just a simple scraper blade.

It shouldn't. It just kills all the lights when needed (including brake lights). In the regular position, all lights work normally, turned on and off by the headlight switch, activated by the brake pedal, etc. Where in CT are you?

OK, I am looking to get a new exhaust system for my 1009. I am looking for a manifold back complete exhaust system. I have seen a lot on the net, just wanted to see if anyone has a recommendations and experience as to which direction to go in. I am not going stainless, as it is not in my...

Checked the vacuum pump, pretty dry around the base, so that doesn't appear to be the issue. Valley looks a little a wet, but that could be from me fumbling around with the lines and such. Rear of valve cover gasket areas are wet, so I'll see if they need a little wrench twist on them. I will...

OH, don't I know it !!!!!!!!

RGR all Rick. Thanks for the top about the valve covers and vacuum pump. Didn't know about the valley and I will check before I tear anything apart. That said, that oil leak is now fairly significant, as I discovered that it was dripping all the way up the driveway. Got all the stuff to do an...

SHE LIVES !!!!!!!!!! Turned the key, cranked for 2 seconds and she fired right up. First time she went real high on the revs (way high), so I had to shut her down. I was crossing my fingers that she would start right back up, normally, which she did. Went to high idle, but then my foot...

OK, finished cracking the injectors. Got fuel from all. So, tank drained, new fuel in tank, new filters, glow plugs tested, SAT and reinstalled and injectors cracked and all have fuel going to them. Don't know what else it could be. She is buttoned back up and I am waiting for batteries to...

I don't think it is an incorrect pump at all, not what I am saying. I just think it indicates there was a replacement at some point in time. Probably a better pump (upgraded internals to deal with evolving diesel?) than the original.

While poking around this afternoon, I managed to get a peek at my IP model number tag. It is a DB 2829 - 4524. I looked up that model number and I believe it correlates to 86/89 HMMWV. Is this the original IP for my 84 09 ?

OK, So this morning, I warmed up the garage to about 65 degrees, Had a 250W work light under the oil pan all night long and ran a heat gun down the intake for about 20 minutes or more. Then had the wife try to start her while I kept the heat gun on the intake. She turned over great, but no...

I didn't see the second round of pictures until after I posted. Looks pretty strong.

That is one beefy bumper. I am not an engineer (didn't even sleep at a Holiday Inn last night), but are you planing to add any gussets to the two main vertical bumper attachment plates and the side extensions? Is 1/4" going to be enough to take a load (sideways or even directly in front) if...

Ok, finished syphoning the fuel tank until I got nothing but air. Disconnected the line at the point where the rubber line connected to the hard line coming from the tank. Went and got 10 gallons of fresh diesel. Put 5 gallons in and did some additional syphoning to bring the fuel up to the...

LOL!! I know it stops the inch, but will it stop the leak?

It does, thank you !

The flushing thing is a good tip, thanks Rick.
