    Still looking for deuce around greensboro n.c.

    Is Nashville too far away? I have a great running M35A2 Studebaker I need to move. It doesn't look so great, but it runs fine.

    CUCV Wont accelerate Wont rev in neutral until RPMs creep up

    Somemedic, thanks for the detailed instruction. My truck did much the same thing. First it ran fine, but then it started to lose power and eventually had practically no power at all and would barely run. I took off the fuel return hose at the nipple and then removed what I believe to be a...

    crane truck in flood for sale

    It would be iffy. How deep was the water? How long did it sit in it? The trucks are NOT "waterproof" but will keep out water for a short time. If the tranny and transfer case were underwater for any length of time, then they are most likely shot and will need replacement. Open the drain...

    Anyone need a 24V starter minus solenoid?

    P.S. I will trade even for a set of glow plugs, we both pay shipping to the other.

    Anyone need a 24V starter minus solenoid?

    I had to replace the starter because it had a bad solenoid (the freaking solenoid was $175!) so I replaced the starter and converted the truck over to 12v, too, and got a lifetime warranty on the starter. The starter spins fine and I figured that I would rather let someone else reap the...

    How do you remove the solenoid?

    All it needs is a solenoid and $125 is $40 more than the solenoid.

    How do you remove the solenoid?

    Okay, I have a bad solenoid on my starter. I took the starter out and used a set of jumper cables to hook up the starter. When I shorted the Batt terminal to the big starter terminal, the motor spun, but when I shorted a screwdriver across the small starter terminal, it did nothing. Bad...

    Redstone Listing Descriptions

    RE: Re: RE: Redstone Listing Descriptions I just recovered two today. All were listed as "runs". What they forgot to tell me was that one was missing the instrument cluster and a second had no brakes. The pictures were so poor that you could not see the missing instrument cluster. Be VERY...

    Anyone buy in event 3577? - Paid in full invoice arrived!!!

    RE: Re: RE: customer notified (paid in full invoice) 3577 This Aaron fellow handing 3577 is a joke. I had to fax him the original EUC TWICE and the corrections TWICE more. My EUC status STILL says submission pending. :roll:

    What do you want changed about GL?

    In interest of full disclosures, the auctions should remain viewable for 60 days AND the winning bidder should be disclosed. I have proof that one person ran the bid up on AT LEAST 14 trucks, winning several, and then didn't pay for them or take delivery of ANY of them. He ran the bid up on one...

    What do you want changed about GL?

    TWO WEEKS after I sent my EUC until someone FINALLY looked at it. Why do we have to fill out an EUC EVERY TIME we purchase a vehicle? Why do we have to fax it in? Why can we not just fill out an online form and submit it where it then goes directly into a data base that is then routed to...

    What fuel mileage to expect from a 700R4 equipped Blazer?

    Your friend can always experiment with alternative fuels. Half used motor oil and half regular gasoline works great in a diesel engine.

    M1008 lose of speed, have replaced fuel filter, glow plugs

    Sounds like a transmission problem. Check for correct transmission fluid level and check the line to the transmission vacuum modulator and the vacuum modulator itself. I'll bet is one of the three.

    Newbie from TN

    Shout out from Mt Juilet, just east of Nashville. I bought a 1 ton CUCV from GL a couple of months ago and I am hoping to get it shipped soon. Keep a lookout on GL for an M1008A1, that's the military designation for the Chevrolet 1 1/4 ton CUCV.
