I really like the seat covers. Where did you get them from? My Smittybilt GEAR covers are held together with velcro. I LIKE YOURS A LOT BETTER. They look like they will stay where you put them with NO problems. How did the lift go? Or should I just go over to 'T's garage' and see for...

I've got to tell you guys that work platform Gary came up with is EXCELLENT. I told him he should make them for other CUCV owners. Parts would not be that big a deal, as he has a plasma cutter. They are heavy, but that's just a shipping charge. And THESE THINGS held both Gary and I at the...

I do remember that Red Burb. But like you, I figured it was a gasser. MY 1991 GMC V1500 HAD the 700R4, not the 4L80E. I still need to talk to your buddy up in Pilot Point that restores CUCV's for that drivers side door. I also need to talk to you about selling my M1009. Call me when you...

Finally found that 4X4 6.2L Burb. EXCELLENT! I will await the time that you are satisfied with the results and drop by and show me. Patience IS a virtue. And you have waited quite a while for one like this. Ain't Texas a great place to find 'Cowboy Cadillacs'? Especially 6.2L ones with...

I've pulled my M1009 with my M1028A2 for well over 500 miles one time and over 850 miles another time. Then finally 300+ miles. ALL WITHOUT REMOVING ANYTHING. Put the transfer case in NEUTRAL (leave transmission in PARK), turn the ignition on to release the steering wheel lock (disconnect the...

I roll painted my M1028A2 and it came out pretty good. Pix and everything here: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?95664-M1028A2-dually-paint-job&highlight=

Here is the Behr paint code - I buy mine at Home Depot (if you just copy this picture and print it and take it with you, they can make this up while you wait). You should be aware that each gallon will be slightly different in shade. So either keep a little extra of the gallon for touch up OR...

He did say : I'm sorry I do not currently have time to upload picture or do any of my own research. And I don't know about the rest of you guys, but I REMEMBER THOSE DAYS. Going to school full time, two full time jobs AND HELPING MY DAD when he calls about a strange part laying under his...

We had a GREAT TIME. Only one member got stuck and it took just a few minutes to resolve that issue. Bryan in his M35 deuce My M1009 K9Vics M1031 did I mention that ONE of us got stuck - the M1031 pulled it free fairly quickly - it was high centered Here is the crew that went...

I have two other CUCV owners, who after they replaced/had rebuilt their IP, they also said the truck 'ran like new'... seems like a good way to fix this trucks poor running issues... hopefully it will

Well, unfortunately the 'rebuilt' IP we had was bad. So, we are having the IP we pulled out of the M1009 and having a Stanadyne shop rebuild that. Once we get it back, it will go back in. I MUST ADMIT, I've learned SO MUCH by helping Gary. He's flat got this down cold. Hopefully in the next...

More pictures throttle cable new IP with injection lines attached if you look close under the radiator pipe, you will see where the IP attaches this is an original intake filter cover that I had never seen before - just thought I would share it Even though Gary did get the new IP...

6.2 IP swap with a few pictures Well, one of our members IP needed rebuilding. Another of our members (K9Vic) had a rebuilt IP. So, CUCV workday part II commenced yesterday. see the specks in the fuel - that's the diaphragm falling apart new IP old IP with the intake off

I didn't know S was a limey, or are you talking about J?

As far as repainting your M1009 - consider Behr house paint. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?95436-My-1990-GMC-Suburban-CUCV-clone-AKA-M1007-or-M1029 second post in that thread you will see the codes needed and his truck came out really nice. SO did my M1028A2 -...

It's basically a 27+ year old 4x4 diesel powered truck. I'm hoping it's not your first vehicle, because YOU will probably need to be mechanically inclined to keep it ON the road. As long as the body is ok (rust issues as stated above), having one that will run AND stop are important. As you...

welcome to the green iron disease. stay safe and come home to enjoy your new ride.

J, You've been busy and I must say that it looks great. Glad it went back together as easy as it did. So, will the new cab help get better MPG's? You need a CUCV for 'non heavy' type chores for you and H. I've been near this beast several times last year. She was great looking BEFORE...

Bman, I gotta tell ya, it does my heart good to see your son doing this work. I just wish the 'younger set' had a more inquisitive nature when it comes to automobiles, because most of them just want to play video games. Hey, maybe somebody could come up with a VIDEO GAME on how to rebuild an MV?
