Yesterday i was driving my M1009 it was running great no problems what so ever then all of a sudden the truck just shut off. So i costed to the side of the road. I tried to start it for a few minutes and it wouldn't start. So after sitting there scratching my head for a few minutes and looking...
Right now I'm debating on what style of auxiliary light's I should put on my m1009. I don't have a roof rack so Im going to put them on the bumper/brush guard. Wanted to know your guys opinion of what style (square, round, or led bar) look best on these truck? If you have any pictures those...
I know this is a slightly old thread, but I just want to make sure that i'm looking at the right sensor and if its what could be causing my fast idle solenoid not to engage. I'm new to a lot of this so please be patient. The first pic is the pic of the sensor that i think goes to the fast idle...
The lights behind the dash are 194 bulbs and the one for the voltmeter is a 1895 or at least thats how i ordered them. So i just got some on amazon and they have worked great and are really bright. Here are the links to the bulbs i ordered.

I was able to locate a plastic one that is identical to the one that was previously in my M1009 from Summit. Here's the link and a few pictures.

So today i was taking apart the dash in the M1009 trying to fix all of the lights that stopped working and replace them with red led's. While doing so i was going to fix the light to the voltmeter and the wire has completely pulled out of the light bulb holder that goes into the back of the...
I know this is an old thread, but i was wondering how any of the dashes you guys have purchased have held up? Any fading or cracking? I am currently looking into a new dash pad and wanted to know how they each companies have held up before i drop almost $300 on a dash.
Thanks
I would say i use the four wheel a few times a month so it definitely hasn't just been sitting there. But i never thought about the axle moving back due to the a broken leaf spring center pin or the wrong spring size. I will definitely have to look at that tomorrow after work.
So a couple years back when i got my M1009 i managed to crack the transfer case clean in half. The mechanic said that it cracked because the front drive shaft seized up. Jump to a week ago and when i started leaking trans fluid really bad so i took it in to the same shop. So today i just got my...
I've been looking for a new dash but those go for around three hundred dollars. Thank you for posting this i can't believe i didn't think of this sooner. I have a question though for the great stuff did you use the regular stuff or the window and door stuff so it doesn't push out as much?
Got her going just yesterday since it was a little warmer. What i am assuming what happened was when i went into the snow bank snow got in the engine, so when i got home. All the melted snow froze in the starter and locked it up. I was able to warm it up enough with a heat gun and finally got...
Yes thank you for the change and the explanation. That would make sense about the snow melting and turning to ice because it did almost everywhere else on the truck. Which way would i need to turn the nut to turn the engine over and about what size would the socket need to be?
Thank you
No, we were able to get it out after about an hour yesterday. I got home fine after that pluged it in and then it wouldn't start this morning. The reason i said that about it getting stuck in the snow bank was because it got a lot of snow in the underbody and a lot of it turned to ice this...
The last couple of days here in Michigan have been extremely cold. With wind chill factors up to -40 and the temperature being around -10 at points. When i started my M1009 yesterday totally fine then on the way home she got stuck in a deep snow bank in probably 3 feet of snow. Then this morning...
