If you want to replace those resistors, I have the ones from my CUCV that I pulled out when I changed the starter. I can send em to ya.

Howdy Greg! Welcome to the site. We've got a good bunch here. On the lower right of your instrument panel, below your heater controls is where the radios mount in the civilian models. Our military ones have a block off plate that you can take off if you remove the panel. Mine has the two...

I got my new set of glow plugs from Saturn Surplus. They're on the CUCV page, 5 or 6 down, if I remember right. Part number 6A843G070 NSN 2920-01-151-3627 Set of 8 Popped the old ones out and popped the new ones in. No muss no fuss.

Right on, I have the one that came off of mine when I "adjusted" the brackets so it would stop eating belts. It's in the glovebox waiting to go back to it's home.

Well the starter went out in my 1008 last weekend. My boss just surprised me today with a 12v starter(lifetime warranty), battery cables and stuff from O'Reilly's. I'd been planning to do the 24 to 12v conversion anyway, but since the passenger side alternator is the one I'll have to keep...

Couldn't have said it better myself. Nice atmosphere and great folks. It's like sittin around the woodburning stove in the shop with all the guys. That's got my vote!

Aye that's the difference. 14v comes out of the lead alternator, goes to charge the first battery, and to the ground on the second alternator(there's where the need for isolated grounds comes in). Since the second alternator has 14v coming in, it basically adds its own 14v to that making 28v to...

It was awesome!! I'm still grinnin like a jackass eating briars. It was great to get to meet everyone and just hang out shootin the breeze. Today definitely beat out the afternoon a friend and I pulled the engine out of a car with a cutting torch and a Bobcat. We'll be shootin for Toccoa...

Us two too! Looks like Susan and I will be able to make it! YAY!! Chuck, I'll call you tomorrow afternoon when I get home. It'd be my pleasure to convoy up there with ya, or ride with ya and chip in on fuel, if there's room. Not sure if you'd wanna drive slow enough so I could keep up.

Maybe lining the inside of the inside drum with filter material? Aside from the fact that you're trying to avoid buying filter media. :) That would put the clean oil in the outside drum, and able to be pumped out like the water is normally. Spin it up, dump in the oil and voila! Although it...

Can't make it. *sigh* Well after 2 weeks of requesting OH days and trying to get people to shift change with her, the wife has to work, so we're not gonna make it. Hope y'all have a good time, hoist a cold one for me. :beer: Oh yeah, get lotsa pictures! :)

It's lookin like the wife might have to work, if that's the case I won't be able to make it. :cry: We'll know tomorrow or Monday for sure, she's been asking for a week for someone to switch shifts and noone has spoken up yet. If that turns out to be a wash we'll check into some alternate...

Just got off the phone with A&M Diesel here in town. I've done business with em before and never had any problems so we'll see how it goes. He said figure around $500, which is a little higher than I would've liked but they're right down the street and can have it done lickety split. Stanadyne...

Any word yet? Mine is needing to be r&r'd, leakin at the throttle shaft. I'm calling one of the diesel places here in town tomorrow but if they're anything like any of the other mechanic shops around, this'd be a LOT cheaper. I'm also going to be checking around for a rebuild kit, so I can...

Sounds great, Chuck! I'll do some reaodn in the Assoc. and we'll have to get together sometime. I'm down in Warner Robins/Kathleen a LOT working on friends' vehicles, or towing them. :D

Didja call Kenny? I'd be surprised if he couldn't get ya something in the size ya want. He's closed now, though, and won't be open again till Monday. :? I'm not a member either, I plan on goin to the Rally though. I'll do some reading and maybe be a member by the time we get there.

I got my 1008 near the end of March, drove it to the shop from the guy I bought it from, and haven't had to put wrench on it, except for some small non engine related stuff (leaking coolant sensor, and glow plug relay, now glow plugs 'cause i burned em up jumping the relay to start it in the...

Mine were 285/75 R16 Yokohama Geolandars. They were used, but still plenty of tread and he hooked me up mount n balance and 4 tires for 150 bucks.

Heyas J! Give Kenny at Southern Commercial Tire a call. He's the one set me up with the tires on my truck when the old ones went south. He's got used/new and can order anything. He's right off I-475 at the Bolingbroke exit. Turn off the exit towards Forsyth and you'll see his place on the...

I'll try to get up there. Looks to be about a 2 hour drive, if that. I can hit 74 a few miles from the house here and make it a nice scenic ride. Just hope too many folks don't laugh at the white truck. Hopefully will have my 12v conversion done by then too.
