    37x 12.50R 17 tire upgrade on CUCV

    I won’t dispute DIYs quality as I own some of his stuff. But I have seen nothing that leads me to believe anything he makes is better than ORD. Plus ORD has done most of the research and design in the realm of “performance” square bodies. Their spec’d leaf springs are the absolute best you can...

    Source for quality replacement floormat

    I may give the LMC a shot if the local upholstery guy tells me to kick bricks. Yep USMC style, and a heavy at that.

    I wish my ACC kit turned out even 1/2 this good.

    Source for quality replacement floormat

    The ACC kit is straight garbage. I spent 2 days fighting to get it right. Never did.

    Electrical issues after jump start.

    My agency still has a M1009 in service. It has always been reliable when used regularly. However it was allowed to sit for over a month with the mobile radio left on and obviously the batteries were drained. I was not present but evidently it was jump started by hooking to the front battery...

    Dash pad help.

    My M1009 came with a near perfect dash pad, no cracks anywhere. However it was quite chopped up around the instrument bezel. Any ideas how I could repair this to tighten everything back up around the cluster? Also you may notice the corners at the speaker vents are turned down quite a bit. Am I...

    6.5 in cucv Questions

    Sharecropper, My concern would be the numerous issues that can come up. Much like the issue Rich had with the valve cover bolt hole. They are awesome well engineered motors, no doubt, but sometimes things get put together wrong. Awesome build you have yourself BTW, I’ve scribbled notes and...

    6.5 in cucv Questions

    Rich, I looked back through your install thread to confirm and must have missed it; but did I understand correctly that even the new P400s are sold essentially “as is”?

    Pioneer tool rack in a M1009?

    I’ve considered mounting a M35/37 style pioneer kit on the back of my ‘09 once I switch to a truck tailgate. I’m also considering a MaxAxe to save weight. Never actually seen a CUCV with one while on active duty.

    M1031 to M1028A1 Overland Build, Offroad Designs NP203/205, 4L80E Conversion

    Man you got a great set up! Two quick questions.... What suspension mods did you do and could you snap some pics of where you mounted your PSC reservoir? I’m getting ready to install my kit and I’m looking for ideas

    Hello from SW Kentucky.

    Just thought I’d say a quick hello. Just bought a near pristine M1009. It’s the third I have owned in my life but the first I’m committed to! Looking to tap the vast resources and knowledge of this awesome place!
