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

    When I replaced my power steering pump, it took a couple days for steering to be 'normal'... hard lock left to right and back again a couple times...drive it a bit... top it off...repeat... I had zero assist at idle until the fluid worked its way through.

    coilover / spring assist shocks for M1031?

    Not concerned about added payload capacity..... Just always ran them... seem to have been better than conventional shocks.

    coilover / spring assist shocks for M1031?

    That's indicating OK for 2WD (C30) but not 4wd (K30). I'll take your word for it though, if you're using them. :D

    coilover / spring assist shocks for M1031?

    I've run coil over / spring assist shocks in every one of my vehicles, even passenger cars.. I find it maintains ride height when loaded and maintains a smoother ride... Now, it seems that Gabriel discontinued most of their spring assist shocks, and those that are available seem to indicate...

    What kind of life can you get out of a 923 with a NHC250?

    I tracked my mileage for a cross country trip from Bragg to Lewis, with an M934(A0), NHC250... Those saying 3mpg from the 250 can eat it...

    PNW Info Thread!

    I have a 5 ton if you need help moving it.... My tow bar is in the 5 ton... of course, 70 mile round trip @ 5mpg + toll is not optimal but it's an option of last resort if you need help. The tow bar itself isn't an issue, I can run that up in my CUCV... Are you recovering it from JBLM tomorrow?
