My OEM filter and base have never given me a problem, so until it/they do, I'll stick with the factory stuff. So I'll certainly purchase a couple rebuild kits if available. Count me in.

Guys, the easiest thing to do is simply to install a diverter valve in the floor between the tanks to select which tank the fuel pump sucks from. I've already done this and wouldn't have it any other way. There are three outlets on the tank - the largest (3/8") on one side is the suction, the...

Here - see if this helps. Now let me go back to sleep.

I would like to suggest a couple things: GM removed the rear brake proportional valve in 1988. See GM Bulletin 88-320-5. 88-320-5 Chevrolet Technical Service Bulletin (tsbsearch.com) Secondly, your oil fill cap needs to be vented in order for the crankcase vent to work properly. Just my...

Thanks for posting. It seems I may be an idiot too. With all the time, energy, and money I have been pouring into my P400 / 765R4 / NP241 drivetrain build, I haven't even considered the size and quality of the coolant overflow system. I even purchased a new high-dollar radiator and new poly...

Yeah it's my daughter's inheritance, but I still need mama's blessing :p ! I just now ordered the ammo boom box with Bluetooth and USB charging port. I will post photos and a review here when it arrives.

OK I have been asked where this military boom box would be located in my M1028. I would lay it on it's back on the transmission tunnel. And before you ask, I did away with the TC shift lever in favor of a cable shifter located beside the driver's seat. As soon as mama gives me the OK, I'm...

Thanks for your reply. I think I have found it - .50 CAL A-BOX™ The Original Ammo Can Boombox New 2023 | Thodio

Instead of installing a radio in my M1028, my wife wants to get me a military-themed bluetooth boom box for Christmas. Anybody ever heard of such a crazy thing? After thinking about it, it makes sense, because all my old country songs are on my phone. Beam me up Scotty. And because of all...

Rick I may be interested in your M1009 stuff. I'll reach out to you via phone soon to discuss.

Funny you say that. I've been looking for a low-or-no rust M1009 for my next project. When I install the P400 / 765R4 / NP241 into my M1028, I will have an extra complete, original, clean, 15,000-mile OEM drivetrain with no home. There have been several guys wanting it, but they are wanting...

Just sent you a PM.

Just wanted to let everyone know that I just listed a brand-new Bowtie Level 2 k-case 700R4 transmission in the classifieds. https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/brand-new-bowtie-level-2-700r4.209342/post-2472769

Hi. I've been silently following your thread. In my humble opinion you are making very good decisions. Regarding an engine - I'm not sure of your financial situation, but have you considered simply purchasing a 6.5 crate motor and adding all the CUCV accessories to it? Not a turbo, mind you...

Ditto what Patracy said about the bracket. If you don't know already, there are two (2) different brackets; one for the original OEM direct-drive starter, and then a different bracket for the newer gear-reduction starters. They are not interchangeable. You will need to know which starter you...

Great write-up. Thanks for posting.

Yeah the NP208 takes a Speedi Sleeve #99187 from National. NAPA should have this, or can get it. It comes with a driving cup to install the sleeve onto the yoke shaft. When you go to install the sleeve on the shaft, make sure you don't drive it too far on the yoke that the rubber flange of...

@Sharecropper , This is FANTASTIC and Thank You for already having the answer! That's why I make the big bucks. :p

No problem! https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/leaky-front-transfer-case-seal-maybe-not.195119/

If I were you I would leave the Gimmy as-is and use it. Then find and rebuild a 6.2 or 6.5 engine for the CUCV. Just my 2 cents..............
