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

    An electric pump can be had for less than $30 and plumbed inline below the passenger side door, and it doesn't have to be 'on' until you need it.... Comes in real handy if you need to prime it (for whatever reason).

    I finally started working on my M934 interior..

    A couple reasons. 1. They won't freeze. 2. They can't be eaten. 3. They can't be drained and/or stolen, or otherwise tampered with. 4. They can't be punctured. My biggest concern is temp. I don't want 100* water on a hot day, or no water (frozen) on a cold day.... Secondary is...

    I finally started working on my M934 interior..

    I've been bouncing back and forth between plastic 55gal water drums, and a custom water tank. I think 100 gallons is the minimum I'd want to carry. Drums are cheap. I plan on using the overhang and building out slightly to fit a queen size bed. That'll leave about 2ft overhang. I have 3...

    I finally started working on my M934 interior..

    Mine are in good condition. The front hatch/vent might be a good idea to put one in, it just might work on the side vents too. Thanks for the heads up!

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

    It has an accy position. All of my CUCVs had it, but I had to convince it to go into accy, as I doubt it ever got used...Once it went into accy., I cycled a couple times and worked fine after that..... I made the same complaint on the very first CUCV I had and IIRC it was doghead that said...

    285/75 can go on a 6.5" rim..... But they'd be more at home on an 8".... I get it.. I've had them on my M1031 and they were fine. Had 33/12.5/15 on my M1009 Tons of people run 285/75/16.... without issue. (J.Z.'s M1008 stock rims)

    30+ year old shocks replaced on my mom's M1010....completely shot obviously... Only the rear, due to $$$.. But got an amazing deal on KYB Monomax shocks, were are a hair below the Bilsteins..... They normally cost ~$100 a piece but I picked them up for ~$60 a piece... New tires for her coming...

    I finally started working on my M934 interior..

    Here is a view of the ceiling with vents removed and wood removed. You can see cross beams of metal, and beam bolted to the cross member....along with wood that appears to be add'l support for the ducting. You can also see the insulation.

    I finally started working on my M934 interior..

    So.. I'm gonna be using some galvanized flashing, 4", to close the gap, along with self tapping/sealing screws designed for flashing/roofs... I'm also gonna get a ton of sealant, and seal the edges of the flashing, so water can't get in.. In perusing the TMs, I found quite a few things that...
