I have a bunch of stuff I would like to get rid of. I will try and get picture and get things organized over the next few days.

Reverse light controls for regular trucks are part of the shift linkage on the truck. Not the transmission. That means to me that there is a switch with a bracket out there for you that will bolt up.

You gonna let people water ski behind them? Brent Mullins has one in his Museum of the American GI in Bryan, TX. Very intimidating vehicle.

I'm confused. You want all AN fittings? yet, the pictures show the push in fittings. Like I wrote, I'm confused on what you need. I did AN fittings and hoses on my Cowdog truck with the stock CUCV radiator. Let me go look for what sizes I ended up using to make it all fit. That was a year...

Excellent!

This is going to be an opinion mostly thread. So, here is mine. I put 33x12.50 BFG all terrain KO2's on the M1009 my son drives 2 years ago next month. 28,000 mile later of almost all highway with only off road needed to do mountain bike racing and camping. They have not shown any wear at...

There are several of us with Gassers that have made build threads with pictures over the years. However, we really haven't been very good about getting pictures and especially video of our trucks playing. Maybe you can change that for us.

I’m just sorry I couldn’t make it Sunday as well Rory.

If all the parts mentioned above check out ok. It could just be as simple as your idle speed. My first M1009 had a terrible harmonic that made everything shake and buzz after I had driven at highway speeds for more than 20 miles. I figured out a way to check idle speed and just a 50 rpm...

The GEP engine was sold according to the tag on the can as an "overheat" engine. I pulled the heads, did new head gaskets and new heads. I also pulled the oil pan to check the bearings. The rear main seal and the front main seal were not replaced. There was no evidence of oil leakage at...

Check the bolts that hold the cast iron bracket holding the drivers side alternator to the engine. Then look under the #1 cylinder exhaust behind the power steering pump at the block. There should be an extension of the power steering pump mount bolted to the side of the block with a single...

You can mount the switch inside the truck anywhere you want. The stock automatic switch is on the passenger side head, all the way back near the firewall. Below and to the rear of the #8 fuel injector. You can maybe get to it from the wheel well. The exhaust down pipe is in the way to get...

Unfortunately, I have had bad results getting paint to stick to the military CARC. Especially if other paint has been put over the CARC by the forest service. I have seen other trucks with newly applied paint not staying very well also. When Colton did RED 5 years ago. He used a D/A everywhere...

Getting the reproduction might be your better bet in the long run. Plastic doesn’t age well. Any OEM ones out there, no matter how well cared for, will have to be treated with extreme care. Even then, one small mis handling and you probably won’t be thinking nice thoughts. I have several good...

Ok. 130° is a good number to know. Thanks.

It is my understanding that after market parts sellers such as LMC to name one. Do not have the rights to sell them with the emblem. The OEM’s are aggressively protective of their trademark and have really cracked down on that kind of thing. It really all started when Daimler bought Chrysler...

I have never been able to get a direct drive Delco starter to fit with the HMMWV manifolds. I don't know the starter you are talking about. Do you have the starter support bracket installed? If you change styles of starters, you have to change the support bracket. Nobody makes the direct...

What about the other way? What is the minimum fluid temperature an automatic transmission should be used at beyond just idling along? I ask because besides just being curious. I have a 4L80E in my Cowdog truck and the TCM tells me the fluid temperature. That is an internal sensor so it would...

Thank you. This morning was 30°. I drove a M1009 to go workout and then the Cowdog to work. If I didn't know the Cowdog was 12 volt, I would not notice the difference in cranking speed. It is now that slight. I am finally gaining confidence in going anywhere with it. I actually cancelled...

Chinese parts and I'm an idiot. I replaced the redux starter with a "new" O'Reilly's redux back in November. It spun very fast compared to the old worn out one. But, it still wasn't as fast as a 24 volt direct drive starter. About 2 weeks after installing it, it just clicked when I left a...
