You were so on the money with the problem. My brother and I worked on my CUCV all day. I replaced the ignition switch and door locks (GMCPauls Truck Parts - under $50.00 w/ shipping), new light bulbs in the dash assembly, and yes, a new switch for the heater control. I bought the new switch...

Thank you for the reply as well as the repair. Did you get the pigtail from an autoparts store or from a scrapped vehicle?

The heater/blower motor on my M1008 works on occasion. I would like it to work when I need it. This is probably a typical Chevy/GMC problem and not specifically a CUCV issue. The switch feels "Good" (not sloppy or loose), the vent controls (off/defrost/heat) seem to have the right amount of...

Follow this link: www.quartertonparts.com. This is where I got the paint for my M1008.

Thank you for the response. I didn't consider the height factor. I do have an M101A2 that matches matches my CUCV and I really like that trailer. the price on the M1102 was really reasonable but I think I will pass on it.

NSN 2330-01-387-5426. I have an opportunity to purchase an M1102 Trailer that appears to be in very good shape, but I have no idea what the value might be. What do you think a value on this type of trailer might be? The other question I have is would this be a good trailer to tow with my...

Stabilizer Leg Update... For anyone following this thread, I have been working on the stabilizer leg for my M101A2 Trailer. I finally had to mount my stabilizer leg to my backhoe trailer. Once I had it mounted, I was able to use a pipe wrench to unscrew the leg from the housing. It took a...

I hadn't thought about folks driving off with the leg extended. I finally got mine taken apart late last night. The construction was not what I expected. I will try to clean it up tonight and post some pics. As for finding one on ebay, I did search it out and yes, I found one. It wasn't...

I would have never figured that out. I was trying to come up with some Hua Hua High Strength collection of usable words without success. It reminds me of the logistical F-Cubed rule.

IPL is Illustrated Parts List, basically a breakdown of all parts, internal and external. You stated the leg is PITA. What is PITA Thank you for your reply...

Wow.... You guys are GREAT! Your ideas and knowledge seem to be endless. I have the stabilizer leg upside down in my vice and have been applying penetrating fluid to the movable portion of the leg but haven't had any success in getting it to move. Does anyone by chance have an IPL for this...

Hello All.... I recently purchased an M101A2 trailer. I have been actively working on it, trying to remove the rust, repair/replace the tail lights, etc. While working on rust abatement, I noticed that the chassis is an M116 while the trailer is an M101A2. I have read the TM (found on this...

I wish so much that I too had a 2.5 ton. Perhaps when I get my M101A2 done (and my backhoe and my rail buggy) I will get one. I might be too old by then...

Can a person buy the rubber cover that surrounds the 12 pin connector or is it a solid, sealed, part?

I have been retired for quite a while and I don't have much of a memory but I seem to recall that the large trucks have a three position ignition switch - Off (Stop), On (Run), Start. The operator turns the switch RIGHT to the on position, then turns it further to the right which engages the...

They did reuse most of the components. They had to replace the window regulator as the original one was bent (according to the body shop). I did notice that I will have to fix the window crank handle as it twisting eccentrically.

Thank you...

It is AWESOME....! Great Find. What will you do with the water tank? I don't know what I would do with one, but I bet the folks here will have a thousand and one possible uses...

Is that a siren on the passenger side just above the hood?

Home from the Hospital Today I was able to retrieve my M1008 from the body shop! A Red Ford Ranger rolled away from its parking space, rolled past my truck, and folded my door back against the fender. It jacked the door, hinges, fender, and cab post. The total repair bill was just under...
