    Understood, thanks!

    Vacuum pump "bounce"?

    I understand the vacuum pump should pull down 20-25" Hg at idle. When I tested mine the needle was bouncing too bad to read. It jumped around approx 16-18" Hg with a swing of about 4-6". Is this normal?

    M1009, no vacuum from VRV, no 2-3 shift

    Hi fellas. Couple weeks ago my 2-3 shift went away. Just had a chance to start looking at it, and here's where you tranny guys come in. I had a split vacuum hose, and replaced it, along with the Modulator. Still no vacuum at modulator, so I continued TSing. I have plenty of vacuum at bottom port...

    Transmission problems

    What if you disconnect the tranny hose and it still doesn't shift? What's the next step? I am having the exact same issue. No 2-3 shift...

    Best Lift Kit for m1009?

    I used a Skyjacker Softride 6" lift on mine and had to have the DV extended 2.5". I like the ride quality, and the looks.

    exhaust

    Cherry bombs/glass packs actually sound good? Anybody else? Got a sound clip? I am interested, and my tail pipes are completely rusted out...

    exhaust

    The JCW system doesn't come with mufflers. I heard that GL is having an auction on a lot of 35-40 brand new in box exhaust systems for the 1009. I would love to score one of those, but can't possibly use all 40. Anybody heard about these?

    A visual cheat for your locking hubs

    Mine came straight from the West Virginia Nat Guard. White on Free, and only driven on weekends!

    A visual cheat for your locking hubs

    I like the free idea, but that's where my hubs are most of the time, and you can still tell at a glance what condition they are in, as long as your memory is accurate!
