Thank you...forgive my ignorance...what is the bus? What do I put the leads of the voltmeter on. (Both batts show 12v)

I have been having a hard time working on my CUCV....(pickup, not blazer.... m1028?) won't start, barely flickering lights going to dash. replaced GP relay and starter relay...doghead style...no difference...i've been through a lot of the forums.....and i don't have time to mess with anything...

I'm considering buying a m101a1 with no wiring..., although it includes everything I need to rewire it. Anyone got a link to a thread on this? Or some basi advice...my Cucv has the circular wiring hookup next to the hitch. What do I need to buy and where can I buy it to plug in to that. And...

Thank you so much everyone! This is why I love forums. People don't mind if you ask simple questions. Really appreciate it.

Ok thanks for googling that for me. I understand now what it is now. My next question is, is this common on 4x4s, or is it special/expensive/awful...what does it mean for me? Is there anything you can tell me about it that google can't?

So I live in Tennessee...drive a Cucv pickup every day as my daily driver. Just wondering HOW they test offroa farm use diesel..? Is it really possible to get around the test with a quart of used motor oil? And what's the fine if you're caught running farm use?

Just a simple question...what is a Detroit locker?

Nv4500 is looking good to me. Any links to existing replacement forums someone's been kind enough to share? What are the advantages/disadvantage of overdrive? How is it better/worse than a transmission replacement? I don't understand overdrive. Thanks!

This is all really helpful! Thanks! So is it about a day, a weekend, or a week job switching out gears? How big a job is an overdrive? --- I am here: http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=36.126482,-86.805388

I'm near Hillsboro village... Got the truck about a month ago. Youlive in Nashville? 1.)Ok where do I get gears? 2.) Which one will give me max top speed and 3.)what will the drawbacks be. 4.) Is this an easy swap? --- I am here: http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=36.126482,-86.805388

Hi My automatic 3spd transmission is shifting so beautifully perfect...but it's SO aggravating only being able to go 50 mph without revving the engine so high. Here are my questions: 1.) the thong will go 65 or 70 but isn't that high revving hard on a diesel? 2.) what are my options, do it...

Hello everyone, A friend saw my m1028 and now wants one. He's found an '86 Cucv pickup on craigslist for $3500 and we're gonna go look at it. I know some basic questions to ask and things to look for, but really want help. So -what questions should we ask? -what should we look for that...

Hey everyone you said report back...so it was a super cheap and easy fix... The big and short (probably 3 in) vacuum hose that connects just under the air filter housing close to firewall (is this what's called air cleaner?) was VERY rotted and I cut it off with a knife and replaced it for about...
