The plates inside the convertor are seperating

Good afternoon everyone. I am tired of replacing the torque convertor in my 1009 every few years, and I am wondering if there is a upgraded version that can be used on a 6.2 Thanks in advance for the help

Thanks Warthog

I have read the previous threads on manual glow plug switch hook ups. But I have two questions before I hook it up the wrong way and fry my truck. One: does the light blue wire stay connected to the glow plug relay, or does it just get disconnected. Two: does the other wire coming from the...

At the beach with my 1009

skyjacker makes a pretty good spring for 80's model chevy trucks, and there soft ride springs are little easier on the bumps than most springs.

Years ago I mounted a allison 545 in a suburban and backed it up with a divorced np205. There were a few things that need to be addressed as far as the tranny is concerned. One is vibration: when you install the tranny you will need to fab a new cross member which will require new rubber...

Thanks Warthog I will roger that

Has anyone had to install a new vacuum pump on a 1009, and are they timed with the the injector pump or do you just slide it into gear?

I've done plenty of lifts and never did much drive shaft work. If anything I would drop the tcase down a bit. To do that all you have to do is take the big barrel style washers that are mounted on top of the frame where the tcase is bolted, and put them underneath. That will give you plenty...

To chevyCUCV, fyi they came out of a single cab ford. When I went to the junk yard, I sat in the seats while they were still in the truck and it had good leg room, not quite as much as in my 1009, enough. OH YEAH, the driver seat also has adjustable lumbar support.

I'm 6'3" the adjustment on these seats are great. Plenty of leg room. I'm also about 300lbs., so if I can fit in them comfortably, anybody can lol

OH Yeah, you will have to get the seat belts out of what ever truck you decide to go with

Sorry about the delay in response time. The seats mounted in with a few holes drilled right into the floor board. I had a buddy weld some extra metal on the bottom of the floor board where the new holes were drilled for support. As far as them being ultra reclined, they do adjust pretty far...

I went to local junk yard, and found some seats out of a f350 super duty for a 150 bucks, and installed them myself. I think they look pretty good.

Thanks.

By the way camogriz, that does look pretty good

Does any know where to get carc paint?

hi everyone, I just joined this month, and have already benefitted from the site. I did the doghead starter relay modification, which works great, and have learned more about my m1009. I want to install a a/c, and I see that there is alot of options. I waas looking closely at the underdash...
