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

    All linkages in place and in good condition. I was actually hoping to see them apart. The fluid looked clean and smelled good, the usual particles on the pan magnet though but nothing more than I've seen in the past on other trannys. I also edited that post to include more. My brain just isn't...

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

    I've seen some pretty backyard B'S but this is ridiculous. Two nuts used as a spacer between the filter and valve body which doesn't even come close to making up the difference. https://youtu.be/4j2JoWYqpJg Here's a picture added to show the mess they used to take up the space aua Second...

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

    lmao... I don't buy that explanation either. I don't think that particular issue is causing my problems but I will check that out as well. I'll be pulling the pan this week to inspect everything anyway. As well as replace the filter and new fluid it the problem is an easy fix such as...

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

    Nope, T-case isn't the problem. That's one of the first things I checked. Also ruled out by not shifting while going forward. Almost like it only had second gear, first to second shift is almost not noticeable because it needs some adjustment for vacuum. So basically no third gear. Before I...

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

    I tell ya, if it isn't one thing it's another. On the way home from our property tonight I had to hit the brakes pretty hard to stop when someone come around a corner way too fast and the tranny started making noises. Pulled over to the side of the road to look into it and there's a lot of...

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

    I finally jumped on the spin on fuel filter wagon. Yesterday I had a couple slow starts, then no start. Was towing the truck home and tried it again, this time it started. Checked lift pump pressure and it was at 7-8psi, and a new IP so I figured it must be sucking air finally. Was just a bit...

    M1009 Door Adjustment

    I like this PEX idea, I already have some scrap pieces laying around and it's really good stuff. Need to do my door pins and bushings too. They're pretty shot.

    Don't know why I didn't think of it earlier, it's all easy too find info on the web lol. You are correct.

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

    Decided I better fix the hole in the floor to keep my wife happy, was rotted out where the chem detector was located. That whole side of the floor has taken a lot of abuse from something eating away at the metal. Sealed the repair piece in with 3M 5200 and plenty of rivets so it should be fine...

    NP208 front output shaft seal-Can't seem to find one & I'm stumped

    Thanks a bunch, part number saved ;) I've been looking through TH34p and there isn't a rubber seal shown, just the nut and lock washer.

    NP208 front output shaft seal-Can't seem to find one & I'm stumped

    I need to replace my seal as well, t-case came from a civi truck so I'm sure it has quite a few miles on it. Does NAPA stock those sleeves? I should have changed them when I put this case in but needed to get the truck on the road ASAP. Doesn't leak bad but still marks it territory like a Harley.

    HMMWV computer mount

    Thanks guys, those look like a good solid option if I can't dig up the correct pieces to use the Getac I already have. Unless of course I come up with some more extra scratch before hand, in which it would save a lot of time and upgrades to the Getac (i7 motherboard). Currently this B300 doesn't...

    HMMWV computer mount

    Thanks, Dave. What I'm going to need however is the dock itself that the laptop interfaces with. It is a brand/model specific piece. If I decide not to make the mount that the dock attaches to I will revisit your links, and maybe PM you for measurements to be sure they would be tall enough.

    HMMWV computer mount

    Well after looking at the manual some this may become a little more difficult. It says it's not compatible with 1st or 2nd gen B300, only with 3-5gen, and I have no idea which one I have. The serial numbers appear to have never been printed on the sticker on the back. It may be just to do with...

    HMMWV computer mount

    Ooops, sorry that was a typo, I have a B300 and corrected the post. Thanks for the links. I just compared that one to the one on Ebay and it appears to be the same one, which was a display unit. Hopefully one of my LEO friends knows of one that was removed when cars were upgraded.

    HMMWV computer mount

    Ok, so now I'm wondering it the picture I seen was a General Dynamics laptop and I just confused it with a Getac, it looks like they are very similar with the handle and doors covering the input ports. In the picture I seen the monitor was folded down and I couldn't see the top of it. If it were...

    HMMWV computer mount

    Ok, that's cool. I just don't want to keep tapping off one battery to run other stuff. The only thing I have on one battery right now is my Icom ID5100. That's not a bad price for both. Last time I looked the dock itself were around the $300 price I think. I just looked again and there's one...

    HMMWV computer mount

    Last I looked on Ebay I didn't find any of the LEO take outs, only found new and couldn't believe how expensive they were. I knew I would have to get creative to get the dock mounted because of the T-case shifter but it shouldn't be an issue bending some tube steel. My B300 was a LEO take out, a...

    HMMWV computer mount

    First off I gotta say, I hate you HMMWV owners! Just kidding. I want one pretty bad but New Yorkistan isn't very friendly to them. I'm pretty sure I've seen in passing a picture of a HMMWV with a Getac B300 laptop mounted in the cab but for the life of me I can't find it. Anyone here have one...

    I'll load them here then. I forge that they can be directly uploaded to this site, other sites I'm on have to go through a image server. They probably aren't very helpful pictures, but may serve as a reminder of what happens when you don't check fluid levels. And for the joy of looking at...
