This is kinda like asking what color should my (fill in the blank) be?

Yes this project is still going on. Long story but started doing a few more things to the truck. Working on the top and put the blinker switch and exhaust heat shield on.

Yes no fording. Owning maybe 50 military vehicles since 1997 I have used this function a total of 0.00 times. Your mileage may vary

It’s easy especially if I did it. Glad to be of help

I think a lobe on the camshaft operates the pump. If it’s worn you have to replace the shaft or possibly build it back up with more material by welding and grinding

100% not a factory built unit

Glad you got her going. Owning a foreign made odd vehicle can be dufficult. I have a british fv432. It has been a great vehicle but I often feel like I’m one small problem away from owning a 15 ton paper weight. glsd you found your issue.

I’m wanting to do the same thing. I received a set of “free” CUCVs a 1008 and 1009 from a good friend. both need drive trains . The 1009 has no engine or trans. It may be easier to just put in a small block or maybe a 454 I would never sell them so I’ve got to do something with them.

after having the wheels for 6 years and the tires for nearly 2 I finally got around to putting them on the truck. Hopefully no leaks

Has anyone ever seen an MWO for the conversion? I have been to.d it exist but have never actually seen it. would have helped when I converted my 53 Studebaker

Save money until you can buy one made from real parts or at least metal. Best place to purchase is a large mv rally like Aberdeen or MVPA National . Resin guns are cheap and you get what you pay for. That’s my 2 cents

Not much at all. Mine drove like any other 5 ton. Other than it being over width.

I do use the floetrol

And as far as scratching goes yes it will scratch but much like CARC they sort of rub out. Now do I think this is the perfect substitute for real automotive paint no it is not. Wouldn’t paint a classic car with Behr but is more than fine for a restored military vehicle that never had a...

I Think the thinning is the root of your problem. Real CARC paint has a texture to it. It is not smooth. I have never thinned the paint and have had no issues. Also have never used Satin. Have heard it does not work as well. So I can say with flat not thinned I have had no issues...
