    M1009 cab and cargo box conversion

    I love the looks of it, but I dont think I could give up the backseat in M1009. Simoncrk put a new Softtopper on his M1009, and Im totally sold on it. It looks awesome, and its user friendly. You can roll up the sides and the back but keep the top for shade when you have buddies riding in the...

    M1009 pics

    Thanks. Simoncrk gets all the credit for that.... We taped it all off in bout an hour and then shot three coats of green then added the black and brown... We downloaded the paint scheme that the military uses, needless to say its a little off from what they show but it'll work... I'm happy with it.

    Thanks... Tires dont rub anywhere whatsoever... took it for a test drive tues night, crossed a few creeks and ditches and didnt have any problems. I'm sure they would if I really got rough or put it in a bind... I plan on putting a 4" lift on it in the next week or so to eliminate that...

    Well I finally got my M1009 yesterday.... spent three months looking for one in good shape, fairly close to home...(southern oklahoma)... Bought it in Ft. Riley, KS about a month ago from GL, did the whole EUC hurry and wait game, drove 6 hours one way, hooked up the jumpers, and drove her up...
