    M1009 Little Red Riding Hood.

    I found the perfect song for a CUCV owner that is filled with troubles after purchasing a CUCV that has been hacked. Since you came into my life It's the same old situation Empty days and lonely nights Filled with bitterness and frustration. Walking lonely in the cold Trying to find the...

    M1009 Little Red Riding Hood.

    Last night was not very productive. I pulled out about a half dozen stock used windshield and rear side glass rubbers. I handpicked them and soaked them in cleaner. The cleaner they got the worse they looked. I am not using any of them. I will send them to the crusher in a wrecked car. I didn't...

    CUCVRUS Repair Projects

    That was a good deal. I paid $400. for a NOS filter going back 7 -8 years ago. It was a complete assembly brand new in the box. A vehicle I sold went to Indiana and the customer loved the truck. He paid the bill and lived happily ever after . The End

    Why Did M1008s Come with NP208 vs NP205s

    I think they wanted to lower the cost and still have a one ton truck that was capable of carrying out the intended duty. The CUCV was never intended to be a combat vehicle. It filled a time when other purpose built vehicles were being developed. HMMWV as an example. They didn’t even include the...

    Front lockout on M1009

    I would swap another lockout into the hub and see if you have the same slop. It could be it was loose for a while and wore into the aluminum hub assembly, but that big PITA snap ring should be in place and tight. I have lots of OEM hub parts if you get in a bind. Be Safe.

    CUCVRUS Repair Projects

    Against my will o was forced to use this fuel filter. Something failed in the original style during snow removal. I told them I have an alternate filter but would NOT install it. I think I made out better. I gave them this filter assembly and they gave me the stock OEM one.

    M1009 Little Red Riding Hood.

    I came home from work and decided I would experiment with my wing vent window. I drilled the rivets out and looked at my chrome vent handles. I have a new GM one and a used black one. I think I am going to put the chrome ones in only because that is what it had from the factory. I must work...

    M1009 Little Red Riding Hood.

    I just made an order with LMC for over $1K I was able to order everything but the side glass seals on the cargo top. I never replaced them and my glass guy that I have been working with for the past 30years begged me to use the old ones. He hates aftermarket glass rubber. I C also ordered a new...

    Glow plug wire terminal fix?

    I used fuel line and slipped it over the entire glow plug. I packed the fuel line with dielectric grease and they lasted for years like that. I done that on CUCV plow trucks that were plowing and salting. Before I did that I I N was replacing connections and glow plugs every other year from...

    Brake Master Cylinder and Brake Booster Help!!!!

    Same deal. Just get a remanufactured power steering pump for a diesel. It has 3 line one output and 2 returns. No worries and warranted for life.

    Brake Master Cylinder and Brake Booster Help!!!!

    I use Power Steering fluid. Only because that is what GM had in them from the factory. I still use power steering fluid in power steering and ATF in Automatic transmissions. I have a Kubota and use Kubota UTD hydraulic oil in the tractor hydraulic system. Some guys just use AW32 hydraulic oil...

    M1009 Little Red Riding Hood.

    I dug around in my stash and found a set of GM wing vent rubber seal. One problem. One is the one piece and the other is the 2 piece. I have to make a huge order to LMC to finish my project. I will probably drill the rivets out of my wing vents just to ease in installation of the seals. I...

    Glow plug wire terminal fix?

    Give the glow plug spade a slight twist. That will make them tighter. I have been using the AC Delco 13 G glow plugs for 27 years with the stock system. Always worked. Have I changed glow plugs? Yes, on occasion. I changed many systems back to stock after I bought and worked on customers hacked...

    Brake Master Cylinder and Brake Booster Help!!!!

    Get the rebuilt booster and master cylinder. That is the quick fix and the easiest. Save the old one till you have the rebuilt one installed, there may be a rod or other part you need. Last one I had apart 20 years ago was corroded and leak again a short time after putting the seals in it. If...
