    Problem Starting my M1009

    Well I found out the brand new junk chinese starter cable already took a dump. It still won't start surely there must be more fuses then the ones in the fuse block under the dash? I checked all those and they were all good

    Problem Starting my M1009

    $3500 M1008s??

    The axles alone are worth $1500 so $3500 for a whole truck is a good deal I bought the M1009 because I wanted interior space. I will be swapping to the dana 60 and 14 bolt later on

Like you could run into a gas station come out and it would not do anything or crank super slow. but other time...

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately? - Part 1

    Old rusted exhaust broke off so I put two cherry bombs on until I decide what I want to do go single or add a turbo. I replaced the broken cable going to the starter. I also got a door lock unlock handle and a new window crank so it doesn't keep falling off when I shut the door

    Why the fuss?

    I bought my M1009 because it was the cheapest K5 I could find that wasn't totally thrashed I refuse to own anything carburated so it was either a 6.2 or TBI 350 the 350 is much better on power but the 6.2's low end torque makes it great for off roading which is all I use mine for. Also the...
