Thanks, but using that number and a search online all I can get is the rebuilt alts, I want the parts for the rebuild. I know the voltage regulator is what's bad in mine, but I figured while I had it open I should check on what else "usually" gets replaced when they rebuild them. And I've yet to...
I'm gonna start this back up because it's hinted at but not said. What are the part numbers to be able to do the rebuild? I've got the TM out and want to do the alt rebuild, but don't know what alt to tell the parts store guy's I need a rebuild for...
I looked in the TM and it doesn't realy help with my problem. The other day I used the parking brake and ever since the rear drum on the drivers side seems to be "sticking." I tore it down and shrank the adjuster so they wouldn't be touching the drum itself. Now I can tell that every time I hook...
I plan on doin that come summer again, with the top off of my 1009.
But today I used mine for pulling stumps... in the process i bent the hitch :mad:so it points a little bit higher in the air than it did this morning...

Even if it is still 24 volts the front battery will still give you 12 volts, but your best bet will be to get it from the keyed plugs on the fuse panel, that way the radio won't kill your battery when you get out of your truck.

Make sure you get the shocks for the 1 ton trucks, they have a different sleve where the shock mounts on the top. Somebody before me changed the ones on the front of my M1009 and now they're worn out and need replaced.
I'd get the white Blazer. I have an 86 M1009 and just drove it 180 miles on the highway and went between 55 and 70 the entire trip and got 19.5 MPG just have to let it slow down a bit goin up the mountains...and it did great, I love the way it drives...and the top comes off soo easily...
How well do they do in the snow? I have a feeling I will be needing a new set of sneakers for my M1009 in the near future and the tread pattern on these looks like they should do well.
