I took a look at your CUCV this morning and your drive shaft looks fine. The seat looks brand new. Looks like it is a runner and moves under its own power.
Are you waiting for your EUC?
When I got my CUCV from Hill I couldn't go over 25 mph until I had the crive shaft re-tubed at Six States. It was picked up at least 3 times judging from the drive shaft.
I will be up there tomorrow morning picking up a trailer and I always look at what is over on the west side of the lot.

I paid $1,900 for my M1008 and then spent just a little bit more just for the lift :cookoo:
Overall I have to say I am very happy with my truck. There are not too many trucks comming through Hill AFB.
This rack was made by Conn Ferr, who have since been sold to Off Road Unlimited. The new racks are 4" tall where mine is 6".
I found mine on an old Suburban in a local pick-n-pull and got it for $30. Sand blasted it and found some suitable wood at a reasonable price (read cheap) and painted it...
Re: RE: Re: RE: CUCV New Paint, what do ya think??
I found an Hi-Lift mount for a Conn Ferr rack on ebay and the jack is up out of the way now.

The tires are 37X12.5X16.5 Goodyear MT's I bought them from a guy in Surprise AZ. I paid $500 for five tires shipped to my door. Could not say enough good things about these tires. They are used HMVEE tires but have a lot of life left in them.
I...
Well I won the truck in December of last year. Waited 60 some odd days for the privilege to give my money over and gain possession. Now another almost 70 days and still no title, but I am able to work on the trunk and Utah DMV is understanding with their 30 day temporary tags.
Well this is the...
I have read posts about setting up surge brakes on a M105. My CUCV has 4" of lift and 37" HUMVEE tires so the height of the M105 lines up better then a M101.
Has anyone had success with using a CUCV to tow a M105. I do understand the weight issue and will be using the trailer for camping gear...
After waiting for three weeks my local Sherman Williams came through with some olive drab CARC. Being new to painting (read rattle can experience only) I asked the ratio to thin the paint. He told me with my HVLP gun to run it straight. Everything I have read here tells me to reduce the paint...
I am still smarting from the 65 days I waited for the EUC. Now I am almost two months into the SF97.
Good for You!!! I am glad to see a happy surprise.
I clicked on the link today and the first question was how many people are employeed at my company. Clicked over 100 and the survey was over. Guess they didn't want to hear from me...
