M1008 square nut. I cannot remove this tight 4 sided nut and I am out of ideas. A crecent wrench, deep socket (because of the non removable rod) and a punch have failed to do it. I need an idea so I can get it off and place the mount on the new boost. Thanks

So while swapping belts today, I noticed a round sensor mounted in the block with no wire attached. The sensor looks like it has one blade just like a glow plug (unless the other blade broke off). It is between the power steering pump and the front glow plug. In my glow plug/AC wires, I found...

Does anyone know if the military addressed the cracked frame issue caused by the over stressed steering box? I think I read somewhere (maybe a tb) how there was a retrofit kit offered for the military pickup (if so, how would I tell if my truck has it installed). Cant find anything on it in...

I am looking for some other CUCV owners in California that would want to invade the Miller jeep trail in Gorman Ca. for either a day/overnight trip. It would be awesome to have 3-4 CUCVS convoy and show the jeepers what they are missing. If you're in the SOCAL area and interested, let me know.
