an inverter would be nice. Anyone ever done it and whats the biggest size?

Id be really intrested to hear how this is going and how tuff it is to do. The knowledge base here though is inspiring and were it me I think Id get as far as I could before I called for a tow and a garage. You guys have saved my cucv a time or 2...

I do this with the motor running and listen to the change in rpms? When it idles smooth lock it down?

I think theyre more concerned with a tree falling on the duece and it being stored outside where bad bad men can steel the radio... Im betting thats the ins co's angle and if so... it would take a really big tree to do alot of damage to the truck and there arent any radios in the truck anyway

Advancing the timing...? Do tell!! i wanna know how

I had replaced starter bolts about 5 times in the past year and a half. finally found the little support arm that holds some of the weight on the front and doesnt allow the rear to get torqued... havent had a problem for a little while... No wonder that thing was there! aua

Whats it sound like in the cab?

Kiinda nice that Barstow Dave is being a bit more receptive to folks looking around. If the cat had some grievences with folks doing entire motor swaps but never told anyone thats on him. Now that we know we can go there, do a quick PM pre check and get out of his hair. He stays happy and...

It looks like the refresh rates for the lots listed page was doing a better job with keeping up on the current overal bidding during event 3547. You would buzz thru the multiple listings page and could count on the current price being the same on the individual lot page. Im not sure if this was...

RE: Re: n00b questions... looking to get an M1009 As I understand 70 is ok for these trucks but prolonged speeds at higher RPMs will put you on the market for a main seal. If you cant stay slower than 70 you can put 33's on and that will lower your RPMs. If your in town driving though (around...

When i was about 4-5 my mom and dad took us out there by Wall Drug. Someplace along the way we were driving and there appeared to be a huge fire burning out of control and it was coming towards us or so we thought. The smoke was thick and black and getting closer. As it approached there was a...

RE: M1008 Air is getting into the fuel line system. check all rubber hoses and steel fuel lines for possible leaks, ie rust on the steel lines and dried/cracking rubber. Makes sure your water drain vlave is tightly shut and the filter is seated to the base.

I have a source for m151 dasheswith full guages for 100.00. I had seen M35 dashes for 400.00. Noticed certain dueces in certain auctions are minus the insturment cluster and , for a savings of 300.00, figured I would ask. I forgot about the air guage not being on the mutt cluster. Could use...

Was looking at the pics of dashes on GL and wondered if the insturment cluster from and M1 51 will drop in or are they too small. Im assuming all the guages would bolt in as well. I searched but didnt see the info I was looking for

I prefer to keep petcocks Im somewhat familiar with in my equipment. My momma taught me to stay away from any old random petcocks with strong stems. :mrgreen:

Very nice job. Would like to see someone make those stickers that fit the body panels and use MARPAT for the print. U'd be almost invisible..

I dont have a pintle on my bumper. I started to put one on and remember reading about CUCVs pulling trailers w/ the pintle on the bumper (G503 or Mil Veh magazine?) and having bolts or bumpers shear. The bumper aint much for towing a loaded trailer. Do yourself a fav and get a used hitch...

That oil filler/drive gear bolt tip is def. news you can use. Thanks for that info!

Could be the transfer case was partially in/out of gear. Try moving that?

RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: dangerous truck While Id say a D-9 is heavy and so is a full 900gal poly tank Id say the issue would be the fluid movement of 800 gals of water quickly sloshing from one side to the other. D-9s dont slosh... if chained properly. I believe there was an article in fire...
