Thank you, just trying to get an idea of how a newish sealed truck would....seal. Looks like a big order to motor city K5 is in the works. I'm gonna do it all. Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

How many here have completely re sealed their M1009's with new weatherstripping and seals? The 09 absolutely choked everyone on the last trail ride with fine dust. I resealed the tailgate and have a new LMC carpet kit front and rear. The dust still seems to pour in the front windows. So if...

I replaced mine with Dorman's years ago. No leaks, but I decided for reliability's sake to ditch the internal trans/engine oil coolers in the radiator and run separate external B&M stacked plate coolers in front of the radiator, complete with new lines like CUCVRUS did. It is definitely not...

Theres been a nice M813 for sale for years in front of a local salvage yard in Yuma Az. Driving home from work a couple days ago I noticed its finally gone. So who dunn it? Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

I like those 5 tons. Theres a few down here for sale, very clean. Hey DaveO. I'm doing grounds keeping and landscaping now for a housing corporation. Love the work, no stress and I get to play with toys all day. Government subsidized so you can just imagine how much everybody cares about the...

I drove my M1009 daily for 2 years and put 15000 miles on it. Longest trip was about 5 hours at 65mph. I also delivered chinese in it locally for 11 months. I put all new bearings, wheels seals, brakes, hoses belts, new radiator, heater core, batteries, electric fuel pump, fuel lines and...

I think your gear/tooth count theory is correct. For giggles, I found the window rolls too far up by about 2 inches past where it should. What if I cut the regulator arms then lengthened them by say, and inch or 1.5 inches? Would that in theory give more down stroke? Wait...I think shortening...

Well I tore into things this morning. There are absolutely no hang ups anywhere, the tracks despite no more felt material slide freely. The issue is pictured, the rollers literally run out of track. They hit the threaded lugs on the removable track pieces that bolt to the window. These are...

I've had it torn apart before. Felts are all gone. But the tailgate itself is off a Civi K5 and is very solid and straight, I welded the top edges about 4 years ago. It works smoothly. The regulator is my suspect right now. But it looks just like the photos on the net, and its supposed to be...

I have no other trucks to compare to. My M1009 rear glass sticks up about 2 or 3 inches when fully down. That doesn't seem right, as it's too easily susceptible to damage when loading, sitting on the tailgate, etc. So something aint right with mine. I deem the regulator non original to the...

I had no idea, thanks for the correction! Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

The driver side alternator belt is often a bear to get on (if it's the proper size anyway). I found this tool. Looks like it would make the job a breeze. Thought i'd pass this on to fellow CUCV owners. I'm not affiliated with Amazon or Lisle...

Zero ish ohms and then zero volts when switched to DC. So I must've hit the battery post while touching the hold down bolt with the hair on my chinny chin chin. Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

What am I checking for? Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

Yes it was by the mounts. No charge issues, lights extinguish normally. Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

Could very well be! Didnt think of that.

Icky dicky, man I've got some catching up to do. You've been occupado. Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

I was just replacing some fuel return lines on the 6.2, passenger side. Wet salty shirt and skin, leaned over enough to get a nice little buzz on my arm and chest when I came in contact with the battery hold down bolts. Not the posts themselves. Curious as to how I could be feeling voltage from...

I did the cut up air cleaner mod some years back. Immediently blew my rear main on the way home from the increased air flow ( I suppose an increase in crankcase pressure from better burning ). It did make a seat of the pants difference but the noise was awful.

Did they install the pushrod that actuates the pump? I've seen those lift pumps bad out of the box. Most are all mexico or China rebuilds. I'd wager lift pump or plugged tank sock. The DB2 Injection pump WILL suck fuel but it doesnt like to unless it's pretty free flowing. It often masks a...
