I went with the 29h-vhd instead. These are the batteries that were in my M1008 when I bought it from the military and work fine. They only have 660 cca but they work great in the truck. They were only $89.00 each. I was told these batteries were designed for vehicles that vibrate alot.
Thanks Tony. I found a listing for them on ebay.

Much cheaper than the $300.00 that NAPA wants, which is 30% of what I paid for the whole truck!
Thanks. I see these in alot of the trucks at auction. I have always had good service from the local Interstate store as well. Here, they sell for $120.00 which I didn't think was too bad.
I will check them out. New to the MV thing and wasn't sure if I needed something special. Not sure what the problem is yet, but I am going to start with the batteries. It was running when it came through the lane, but wouldn't start after.
Picked up 2 M1009s at the auction yesterday.

Need new batteries. Is anyone using this battery? Will it work?

Thanks Tony. Sounds great.
I am assumng their service was good and they sent the correct part. I am so afraid of buying something on-line and getting the wrong part. And don't really want to spend $250.00 at NAPA. Your help is appreciated!

Can someone tell me if this is the correct starter for my M1009?

Even with a title you have to be careful. I know someone who bought a car only to find out it had a mechanics lien on it and it could not be re-titled. Of course the seller already had their money and and basically said too bad.
It is here! took it for a spin around the block. Everyone wanted a ride! The guy that delivered it was a veteran, and thought this truck was really nice. Starts right up and purrrrrs like a kitten. I actually did pretty well on my first trip out. Right hand turns are kinda tough. The only...
We will have to meet up sometime and you can take it for a spin. It is really a nice truck. Hopefully I will figure out how to drive it when it gets here wednesday. If not, I may be calling you drive it sooner than later.
Here is a pic of the truck I really wanted. Instead, though, I ended up...
Just purchased my first and second MVs. Purchased an M1008 yesterday, and a Deuce today. The Deuce I haven't even seen in person yet. I have seen pictures, though. It is coming from San Clemente. Should be here wednesday. I will post up some pics of the M1008. The Deuce are in PDF format an I...
