    M1010 charging issues

    The blue box is part of the DUVAC charging system M1010 were outfitted with. Searching the site with that term should yield good reading material. AFAIK, to eliminate the DUVAC system there are two similar mods that have proven to work, Plan B and alternate plan B. I chose the alternate plan B...

    CUCV Alternator Rebuild Question

    Just for giggles, here are the two rebuild kits ASP offers on their website for the 27SI. The respective parts lists show that they have the same items, except that the regulator and diode trio switch PNs for some reason. KIt 7135K 1, 39-101-3 ~ BRUSH HOLDER ASSEMBLY 1, 46-1101 ~ CAPACITOR...

    Skyjacker 4" Lift Kit - differences between offered shock

    TM1008, I may be mistaken but I think that the leaf spring spring rate has more to do with vehicle stability than the stiffness of your shocks. I'm not familiar with Skyjacker products, so I can't comment on comparisons. But I can say I'm very happy with the road manners of my M1010 that has...

    ORD brake hose, m1028, different fittings?

    They work for me. I'd suggest using the new banjo bolt and copper washers they supply and also moving the wheels lock to lock before final torque to make sure there are no pinch points.

    Great products! I spy lift springs, sway bar disconnect, extended bump stops, :jumpin:. How high are you going? Rock shield looks great under the PS fuel tank. Nice! Do they come on in reverse or are they switched?

    Interested in options as well. The OP mentioned possibly using the product bellow. Did you happen to try it out rusty? Member RAYZER had this to say about sealing his M146.

    I remember reading you've adjusted timing, have you increased fuel delivery from the IP at this point? Lovin' it.

    Yes, I believe there should be a spring. The TM-34P shows that piece as a sealed assembly, NSN MS25331-4-313S. Googling calls it an Aircraft Push to Test Indicator Light. Edit: Will add pic. and dimensions of the spring.
