    CUCV suburban?, or converted. PICS

    Well, it's either got a 10 bolt front or a Dana 44. Those are not Dana 60 hubs. The heaviest 3/4 ton 4x4s in the 80's did have a FF rear. Not seen too many of these. Also, unless it was converted to gas, it's not Jim Newtons as I mentioned earlier.

    Newton's clone started out blue.

    Problem getting a title

    No real way around this. Sorry for your luck. We've seen this all to often.

    CUCV suburban?, or converted. PICS

    It would be fun to track down the origins of it. Frankly, it looks like the one Jim "Ike" Newton built about 10 years back.

    Wrecker Bed (A Good Laugh.)

    Yes you did. I would eat microwaved steaks to get a piece of that pecan pie.

    1985 1009 cucv rear end

    You are correct. A little shopping about and you will find quite a few sources for new rears. The trick is finding one close.

    Thanks to all who support my lunacy. Boiled steaks are on me this year.

    LSSV Owners, post info and pictures of your truck.

    I think James (M1075) is the only one left.

    M295A1/ M447C trailer brake parts

    Yeah, I'll grab it and delete it.

    M295A1/ M447C trailer brake parts

    I will correct the title on this thread, no need to start a new one. I'm pretty certain that the parts interchange with the M105. Since it's your trailer, why not invest some time and get the part numbers (NSNs) out of the TM and start a google search? That's how I got brake parts for my...

    Abandoned deuces in Baltimore

    All cities and governments have towing contractors either on rotation or by contract. It costs the city nothing to have them removed from the proerty. The tow company is obligated to try to contact the owners if known. If they are not known, they are required to run an ad in the paper for a...

    Rear Axle Seal

    It's explained in detail right here. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/upload/CUCV/TM9-2320-289-34.pdf Review section 6-14. It explains it in great specificity and even has diagrams.

    Tapa.what?

    I bought it, I've tried it and frankly, find it's uses limited at best. If I have an editing issue that I need to deal with, I'll use it but other than that, not impressed. I think it's on par with ebay mobile.

    Adding An Auxiliary Fuel Tank - M1028

    Does the gauge get wired through the switch? Looks excellent and that extra 20 gallons pushes you past kidney capacity.

    Auction Rating

    Those ratings aren't worth the keystroke it requires to put them there.

    Jerry cans

    The screw in spouts block the vent hole. Also, that vent hole tube gets blocked over time internally. I ream mine out with tie wire. If the vent is clear, I can dump a 5 gallon can of diesel through a military spout in a minute.
