I am preparing to fab-up an engine/transmission stand so that I can fully-assemble my new engine and 700R4 together prior to installing into my truck. Does anybody know what degree of angle the 6.2 / 6.5 motor mounts are, as referenced from vertical or horizontal? Kinda wanted to have these...

Anybody know where I can get a TM for MEP007B?

I am looking to purchase a 4L80E to replace the TH400 in my M1028. I am not familiar with the timeline when the newer 4L80E units became available which had the Park pawl. I have found a source for a company purporting to have a quantity of HMMWV 4L80E units already rebuilt and ready to ship...

Well, I know a lot of y'all are gonna think I am crazy, and maybe I am, but I am thinking about fabricating a slant-back cover for my M1028 truck. I need a secure steel cover under which to lock stuff up but can't bring myself to installing a POS aluminum truck cap. I priced a couple...

OK folks, I am ready to get rid of my TH400 and install a 700R4. I already have the factory TV bracket, new GM OEM TV cable, correct tall GM 14038663 adapter, and a good used 27-spline input for my NP208 transfer case. In fact, the only thing I don't have is the 700R4 tranny itself. And this...

I am thinking about designing and installing an auxiliary HMMWV gauge panel cluster to be mounted on the transmission hump of my M1028, between the heater outlet and the NP208 gear selector lever. Only problem is, the selector lever is angled so severely forward that there is hardly enough...

Has anyone had any experience using a HMMWV speedometer cable in a CUCV? My stock cable is so short the cluster must be in place first and then I have to snake my hand up behind the dash to connect it to the back of the gauge. A real pain. If the cable was a little longer it could be attached...

Just curious to know the number of revolutions it takes for our CUCV speedometers to register one mile. I'm planning on rebuilding my NP208 and I want to make sure I install the correct speedometer drive gear and driven gear & sleeve so the speedometer will read correctly with my 37.5 tire size...

An inherent problem with this model of GM trucks and blazers has always been the less-than-ideal lighting of the instrument panel. There have been numerous threads on SS and other sites regarding ways to increase the brightness, all with varying levels of success. One method which seems to...

Ok I am almost ready for this 700R4 swap but have a few questions and would sincerely appreciate advice. I have acquired the taller GM 14038663 transmission-to-transfer case adapter, new GM 25515599 TV cable, and infamous TV cable bracket. I plan to purchase a completely rebuilt 700R4 from one...

I've never owned a HMMWV, however I am wanting to install these gauges in my M1028 CUCV. I have no idea if they will work, or if they will, how to wire them up. I purchased them from our favorite auction site and they were listed as new HMMWV gauges, however I haven't a clue. I figured the...

I'm considering changing the bench seat in my M1028 for a pair of bucket seats. I'm looking at high-back HMMWV seats, which really look comfortable, however I am not sure how they would bolt up in a CUCV truck. Question - do the bucket seats in a M1010 bolt in the same way and with the same...

I have restored and rebuilt a low mileage M1028 truck and love it, however after 2 back surgeries and 2 hip replacements the factory bench seat is killing me. I'm considering taking the thing out and replacing it with a pair of HMMWV seats. Has anybody had any experience with this sort of...

My M1028 has been fully restored, including the bench seat. However after 2 back surgeries and 2 hip replacements, the factory seat just ain't comfortable anymore. It seems I am riding too high and too far forward and too close to the steering wheel. Just curious, has anybody retrofit the...

Hello everybody. This is my first post in the HMMWV forum and I need to request assistance. I mounted 12-bolts on my CUCV and am having issues with the wheels losing air. I purchased 6 12-bolt wheels from a reputable SS vendor and media blasted them inside and out. I then primed and...

Does anybody know if the cable linkage is still available for the 700R4 brackets? It seems there are several sources for the bracket only without the cable. If the cable were still available these brackets would be complete and useable. A GM part number would be helpful. Thanks.

I already have cross-over steering, and now plan on installing ORD's high-steer and hydraulic assist unit which draws it's fluid power from the power steering pump. Since my pump is 31 years old, I considered replacing it to handle the extra load, and was wondering if there is a higher volume...

I was scrolling through the HMMWV section of SS and came across these photos which seem to show a TV bracket. Anybody know if this can be retrofitted to a 6.2, and for a 700R4 cable?

Getting ready to install a 700R4 transmission in my M1028. Does anybody have a photo, or better yet, a GM part number for the TV cable bracket on a 6.2? Thanks in advance for your help.

I seem to recall an old thread (which I cannot re-locate) about installing an electric coolant fan and removing the engine-driven fan. In the thread, the Op indicated that the electric fan (or maybe it was two small fans) was mounted to the radiator in a shroud and operated off a thermostat...
