    939a0 designation debate

    Analagy, I can call my dog a unicorn all day long. He may even think he's a unicorn but at the end of the day, he's still a dog.

    Hey, I smell a rat! Is there a glut of steel toe footware coming out shortly?

    New GL policy warning

    Perhaps they should have rentals, like the bowling alley or skating rink.

    939a0 designation debate

    It's your truck and you can call it what you like. As far as the designation being not official, it's just not correct as per MIL-STD-1464A. http://quicksearch.dla.mil/qsDocDetails.aspx?ident_number=36895

    NATO fuel can in a Deuce fuel holder

    What makes the NATO cans rock? I only have 5L cans and they sit perfectly flat. Are the bottoms not flat on the 20L cans? I have a buddy that prefers them too but never and issue with them not fitting.. His are surplus cans, not repops.

    AM General Engine Questions...

    Where does this mystical "A0" come from? I've been around these trucks along time and I can't find any record of it except a few times here. Is there some addendum to the TM's we need to get? Didn't see it in the TM but I'll go back and review.

    Broken Rockwell Axle

    Would be a perfect time to forget spider gears and drop a Detroit NoSpin in the case halves.

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    Dual fuel tank doors too, very nice.

    Tie down your batteries.

    Ratchet straps, paracord, bungee cords, wood shims, garden hoses are but a few of the items I've employed to keep the batteries in the general area where they reside.

    New from Ohio with a question

    They are brutally simple. Just look at the TM to see where the Jesus clips are and don't forget the stops bolted on the bottom of the door glass frames.

    Deuce Tractor with civvy 28' pup trailer?

    The only concern is cornering. The civy trailer will get precariously close to the back of the cab.

    driver side alternator belts

    Eric, I read some of the text from the pics you linked to. Seems that the truck in question had some bambalance pulleys on it. Looks like the issue is resolved now but I will try to get pics tomorrow. This presents a whole new problem though. Now I need ambulance waterpump and cranks pulleys to...

    driver side alternator belts

    Perhaps a pic of your setup so that those that own trucks can see what's going on.

    Help me to help a veteran

    I used a Rubicon Express hand throtle on my crew cab. It really is just a bicycle shift lever and cable. Again, it's not something I read about, it was my DD.

    Bought a CUCV M1010 !

    If you do get one out of a yard, make sure it's off of a 400 turbo or SM465 4 spd. The ones on 700R4 trans have a 27 spline input. Yours has 32.

    Help me to help a veteran

    I once owned a 1988 Chev K30 crew cab (sq body) with a 4 spd. I had a bike lever shifter on the stick and never used the gas pedal. With that said, it had PS. The manual steering is the biggest issue I see here.

    How do I know exactly what model I have?

    That 4th character in the VIN determines the GVW and subsequently the need for the overload spring on the top.
