CUCV mod and hot rodding.

[ken]

What about a CUCV mod section like the duece one? There are alot of guys that mod these into hard core off road trucks. Then others that are trying to fix something or ask about repairs. It might simplifly things for some.

Can I second that ?

I built my M1028A2 & still doing Mods to up date to present day to my own version M1028A4Cummins6BTA

 

[Ridgerunner]

You CUCV guys should be ashamed of your self, for wanting to do such a thing... eveyone knows that you can only modify and hot rod a Deuce

 

[cjtroutt]

I thought I would Duce Parts To mod my CUCV in to CU DUCE.

 

[davo727]

Um I dont like the idea, we need an occasional mod thread in the cucv section to break up the 40 threads in a row about alternators that dont work

 

[ken]

Oh well it's just a sudjestion.

Hmmm...

How much 'hot-rodding' can you do to a CUCV if you can't get it to crank, or get the generator to gen, or remove the glow plugs without using a cutting torch or C4, or keep the block in one homogeneous piece, or keep the moving parts of a TH400 inside the case & functioning, or keep functioning relays, or bastard 12/24 power setups, or.....

'Tanner'

i dont even know what homogeneous means lol

 

[SouthernSteel]

Here ya go lol this is what the meaning is

adjective Definition: Of Homogeneus 1. of same kind: having the same kind of constituent elements, or being similar in nature

a relatively small, culturally homogeneous community

2. having uniform composition: having a uniform composition or structure

I think we should rename the deuce hot rodding section to the MV hot rodding section. Include all mods there.

I think we should rename the deuce hot rodding section to the MV hot rodding section. Include all mods there.

good idea. I mean my CUCV is far from stock and its only going to get farther away as time goes on.

 

[SouthernSteel]

yeah no doubt i like the dual alts on an m1010 ambulance being able to have ac with 24 volt power lol

Well how about a hot rod'n section in every class breakdown. I have M38a1 and not all my mods are restoration!!!! I don't want to have to climb over twenty "new bob methods" to find how to fit better seats. I'm sure I don't want to see fifty different ways to lift a CUCV. Let alone I'm sure you diesel nuts don't want twenty different forums on how to rebuild a carb. It would also keep the purist out of our hair. I support our troops but I'm not turning a MV into a rolling wall in their honor. Some people here get all offended when you even mention something none OD or original build.

A separate forum for people wanting to update a vehicle is only logical if we talk about restoring them. One hot roding forum would work...Just needs to be accepting of all MV not just the beloved Deuce.

jfrom189,
This is actually a great suggestion. A sub forum under each section called 'modded vehicles' type of thing.

AND it should ONLY BE for mods. Like has been said, climbing over fifty threads to read ONE that interests you is kind of a pain.

 

[jdeoliveira74]

I second
