Okay guys, here's one more piece to add to the puzzle. The guy who owned this truck before me had converted it to a 12 volt starting system, so i don't know if that changes anything. It's dark here, but i'll go check tomorrow and see if it has one or both alternators still attatched.

Ever heard of the ford SORP-special off road package truck? kind of the same thing as the EMP truck GM makes. It's like a off road ready F-350 too bad it's only availible to the gov and approved businesses.

my wipers don't squirt fluid. I looked under the hood and there is no tank! I guess i'm just gonna install one after i fix my other problems (alternater, and i broke the handle off my rear door)

Thanks for the help, well, to do this i just hooked it up to the other car's battery, then hooked the cables to the terminals on my front battery. Another note, it didn't start up today again. I'm going to test the alternator soon and I will post what happens to help any others who might end...

Ok, so today I started my truck up for a quick trip to super target. Started fine in the 35 degree weather. But when I tried to start it for the return trip, it wouldn't start. I got a jump and it started right up. The werid thing is that when I got home, I turned it off then tried to start...

would that by any chance be the one that had an entire website (cucv.net i think) dedicated to it's build? It's a neat truck, would be nice to have the extra row of seating

RE: super-thanks for the help LMC truck has ones for the civvy models, but that should fit your truck fine. They don't have the original color, however.

There's an m1010 up on ebay right now, seems to be in pretty good condition, and is right by you. I would check it out. http://cgi.ebay.com/1985-Chevrolet-CUCV-1-ton-6-2L-Diesel-M1010-military_W0QQitemZ300056829376QQihZ020QQcategoryZ80765QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

RE: Re: RE: cucv 6.2 TH400 swap to 350 it should fit in to the engine, but you may need to fabricate some mounts or something

good luck, just got to be 10 degrees here, so the planned air horn project is put on hold till next summer

RE: Price of M1009 in the UK just for us crazy americans, how many dollars is a pound, cause $10000 seems a little high for me

you can probably cut the back right off, but no idea about the axles

seems like a good idea to me, what with the price of diesel now, and as such an easy drop in it should give you a sufficient amount of power

RE: Re: RE: ANY know what this is? no idea, my 1009 doesn't have anything like it

same engine, same radiatior

Hey guys, Just wanted to tell of some pictures of a heavily modified M1010 rock crawler someone is selling on ebay. He put up some pictures of his truck crushing some old cutlass. At least I thought it was pretty neat...

Hey just a quick question, my rear window crank seizes up every turn, do i just need a new crank, or should i replace the entire tailgate. I know someone who is selling one for $50.

wow, i dont really know why i decided to look at such old posts, but you probably don't need a skid plate under the tranny because it is such strong metal. Also, these trucks weren't made for extreeme off roading, and so they don't have all the stuff you would like to be crawling around on rocks.

RE: Gun Rack for M1009 I would just wait for one to come up on ebay, or maybe find someone selling a cucv for parts or just a cheap junker. At least that way you would be able to sell off some of the other stuff or use it in your truck.

From what i've heard about aberdeen, i thank god that I found my truck with a for sale sign in the window on the side of the road.
