    60 Amp Regulator Help

    Does anyone know why there are 4 spade type connectors on the regulator but only 3 wires to plug in? I disconnected the 3 wires and am now unsure of the locations to plug back in. I know one connection was unused….just didn’t pay close enough attention while disassembling. Any help would be...

    700R4 transmission in a HMMWV

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    Been AWOL for a while....as far as my fleet was concerned. Finally got the badly leaking heater core replaced in my 3 color 1009. Didn’t drive it for months but did keep starting it weekly and batteries charged. No leak, all is forgiven, all components functioning as designed....knock on wood.

    German CUCV owner needs information

    What do you mean doesn’t lock in the seating position? Like it falls back, or just folds forward? If it just folds forward I’m not sure it’s broken. Both of my trucks drivers seats fold forward by simply applying forward pressure on the seat back...Nothing holds or releases it.

    Wheel color question

    Not sure if there is a correct....most I’ve seen back in the day “on post” had black wheels even the 3 color trucks. When we started masking vehicles off and sending them for the change over to Tan CARC the wheels were Tan. That’s my story...

    Smoky start up

    Could be the outside temps are lower than before the pump was installed, harder to start now, causing smoke. Maybe check glow plugs for “fun”.... just my thoughts. Good luck

    You should for sure put the stock wheels and tires back on that truck. I’ll trade you mine for yours straight up. :D:D
