    Heater blower motor resistor question

    I don't think you are missing a wire, mine is the same way and electrical diagram F-20 has 4 wires going there, so you should be good there. Have you tried cleaning your blower switch?

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

    You sure are right. Makes it easy or at least levels the playing field. Mr. Google told me about it, I can not give credit to the original source, :oops:.

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

    Tired of water seeping through the side window seals on my hard topper, I followed this recommendation and removed the lacing or lock striping in the middle of the seal, popped the window out, removed the seal, cleaned the window rubber and fiberglass top, applied black RTV sealer in the groove...

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

    Outsourced some work on my '09 for the first time, had to accept that straightening a bent front propeller shaft is currently above my skill level. It's installed and doing it's thing. :cool: I removed my engine wiring harness with the objective of doing some preventive maintenance...

    Member K9Vic made a neat looking step that attaches to the frame of a CUCV or his clone in this case. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?106784-My-1984-Chevrolet-Suburban-K20-4x4-3-4-ton-CUCV-clone-2-AKA-M1007-or-M1029&p=1360977&viewfull=1#post1360977

    Welcome from across the bay. My unsolicited 2cents, you could probably get more bang for your buck, price seems a bit steep. Try here on SS in the classifieds, CL, Search Tempest, etc. Good luck in your search, thank you for your service.

    Willing to help with a recovery

    Would you pay $17,000.00 for a M1009?

    I think the $100 off for a leaky shock will get folks bidding for sure...:roll: More than one... I count 3 this year, same asking price of $17,000 or more. 1.-The one discussed currently. 2.-The topic of discussion for this thread. 3.-CL Eastern Shore has another beauty for $17,400.

    Hey Osprey, welcome aboard. Nice avatar, me thinks it's a beautiful bird. As you may have already done, a general instrument cluster clean up might help. Great threads have been put together here in the CUCV Helpful Threads, check'em out. I do, if she's not full, it bounces. Welcome to CUCV...

    Is that a praise coming from your Db drag racing back ground? :-D Here's a list of cans and some measurements, agreed they could make nice consoles.

    Are you positive that your gen 2 is isolated ground?

    going back to 24v

    You posted the diagram for the charging circuit and you are talking about the glow plugs. Have seen, looked at, studied the colored electrical diagrams found here in the stickies? I printed them out and take them with me when working on something, sometimes it helps.

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

    Got good U joints? I'd like to share these pic's of a u joint cap and needle bearing dust and debris, from my rear propeller shaft. I thought I was doing preventive maintenance here, not corrective. I drive it quite a bit and had not noticed excessive vibration or grinding. New u joints...

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

    I installed striker bolt bushings, less rattle and easier to close, I'm a happy. Another option is rebuilding yourself. It is not difficult to do, there are detailed instructions in the TM's, helpful threads in the stickies and proven rebuild kits are available through an SS vendor.

    Back up beeper for a larger MVs.

    A previous owner of my truck had the same idea as cucvlover. It was really well hidden, not hooked up then and not on truck anymore. It took me a web search to figure out what it was, before that, I thought I had discovered The Little Black Box I'm being tracked with:tin hat:... LOL.
