    Help with horn

    No that is wrong. See pic, you pry off the plastic Jeep logo center (see arrow) then screws are underneath. You may have a green plastic cap over the jeep logo.

    I messed up, fuel filter swap

    Highly unlikely that changing fuel filters would cause the engine to become hydrostatically locked. Are you sure the starter is getting plenty of juice?

    4L80E Fresh Rebuild in Limp Mode w/ codes 73 & 87

    Did you read page 126? Points you right at the TISS and TOSS for 87 ratio error. These two sensors are known to give issues. The code will cause the limp mode you're in. Suggest you focus on these sensors and related wiring.

    CUCV2/CUCV-II Owners, post pics and info of your truck

    I have never seen a CUCV 2 GMT400 lifted in military service. To lift this truck (other than cranking down the torsion bars), you had to install a sub frame on the front end which was not a simple thing.

    CUCV weird engine noise

    Before you tear into the engine, I suggest you remove the belts to eliminate the accessories as a source of the noise, and carefully inspect the harmonic balancer for rubber degradation. Check the torque converter bolts for tightness and flex plate for cracks.

    Lost all my lights...

    All 3 lever light switches have a self resetting circuit breaker inside. Sounds like you have a short to ground in a harness somewhere. Did a critter dine on your wires somewhere up underneath? You will need to trace out the circuits looking for sins.

    MEP 802A What happened here?

    Possibly someone used jumper cables and hooked the negative cable to the chassis rather than the battery, which caused high amps to flow through the light gauge wires.
