    Bypassing the blower fuse

    So not an oil painting but very happy I've removed the trouble spot on my very fried fuse board ... I guess at some point if I get my workshop built I'll get to strip the board out and replace it .. I also used these to replace all the fragile pins that were pushed into the fuse sockets...

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    I've been through TM 9-2320-289-20 Page 207 onwards and can't find any reference to some kind of mechanical valve in the exhaust ... sounds like the power valve system in my old RGV and YPVS ... Those were the days :naner:

    After my CraigsList Ad failed to turn up a certified Dwarf electrician ... I tackled the fuse box bypass with an in line fuse and it went well. I will upload some pictures after the chiropractor has finished with me ..:)

    Trailer to haul a M1008

    "Since I have block off plates and an impact, it's a 5 minute job and I don't have to lay under the truck." An old thread I know but i wondered if someone could explain what these are?? (obviously not the impact)
