Get a really, really good rust prevent and do the whole under carriage ASAP.
Do you have the fuel can and bracket for the left rear of the Blazer inside
the door? The radiator is something else that usually goes.

Subject: [MV] M1009 spares and tools

Greetings List,

As an M1009 seems to have followed me home recently, I was wondering
if you CUCV experts out there might be able to suggest some
appropriate spares I might start stocking up on to keep my new toy up
and running. (In addition to a new fuel pressure switch of course...
right Stu?)

Also, aside from the niceties of the swollen glow plug removal tool,
or a glow plug socket, are there any other specialized tools worth
considering that make life easier (besides a good basic mech tool kit
and shop stuff, volt meter, and the 4wd hub socket)?

I have collected most of Julian's fine articles and advice on the care
and feeding of the CUCV so I think with all that info and a list of
spares to start looking for (once my bank account fills back up again)
I should be in good shape.

Thanks in advance!
