    No Lights At All...Tried usual fixes.

    Went out to run the M1009 last night, I hit the lights and nothing. No headlights brakes turns or horn. It is like the black out switch is thrown. The problem is that previous owner removed the black out switches and lights but it looks like the harness is still there. I have checked fuses...

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately? - Part 1

    Did the 12 volt conversion on my glow plugs. Added the headlight relay harness and Sylvania Silver Stars 100% better. Replaced the rear end yoke which took care of my vibration at 25-35mph. Discovered that I am 95% sure that my glow plug card is causing them to constantly cycle on/off while...

    Upgrade complete

    Search question. The old search had a option to show the results threads or posts with the search items in it. The new just shows threads. Is there a way to see the individual posts with your search terms in them instead of digging through the threads, like on the old site? Thanks Guys.

    MEP-002A Won't Crank

    I just got done adjusting my governor. Closed up the cover and when I tried to start set for a test run it tried to turn over for a split second to turn over then nothing no DC at all. No pumps no panel lights. Let it set for a few minutes turn it to prime the pumps would run on both settings...

    deuce swift water crossing stats.

    As a swift water rescue tech and SWR boat operator I would not recommend driving into moving flood waters or any water you can't see the bottom. There are many hidden hazards plus the force of water on the truck. From what I have found on-line the military doesn't rate for swift current...

    power connections

    Search Northern Tool for portable power box it might give you some ideas for boxes. I don't know I used that post to hook mine up. Speddmon is also a good resource, plus he has those spin on oil filter adapters.
