It's 220 PM have you checked your head gaskets lately?

You talk like someone who has never experienced good tunable and properly tuned suspension. When its tuned it is loaded to the max and drives like a dream. When in tuned it has been driven hard and put away wet. I drove a CUCV both ways and never mattered if it had...

best shock I've ever had on a production vehicle. Excuse me. May I ask is there a NON Production vehicle? Had to ask. Be a little hard to get shock absorbers for a vehicle that was never produced. Or producing shocks for something that don't exist. Oh WTH I am all confused. I build vehicles and...

Now that looks like a 14K truck. I like it better like that. Minus the lettering. I have a few plow trucks that look like that. A few door magnets and I would be in business. Good deal.

Good Luck. I never do any resistor bypass. been working fine for me for over 22 years. Many vehicles used long and hard. Replace worn parts as they fail and keep the batteries up to full power and most of the electrical problems never appear. That has been my experience with most equipment also...

High pressure fuel delivery line leaking/cracked???? 35 year old 1/4" rubber hose cracked/split. Many possibilities. Remove the air clear housing and fire it up. Carefully search with a mirror and a flash light. Old vehicle lots of wear items that need serviced. Most are just standard off the...

Brian good to hear that the Dude is still up and running. It was a long tough life for the Dude M1028A1 but it always came thru. It was driven east coast to west coast 2 times and I drove it about 20 time to Fort Polk and tow barred CUCV's home. When I bought that truck it had less then 2000...

Then BUY IT. By all means. If that's what you want buy it. What it is worth is between you and the seller. I buy and sell things all the time. Some people think crazy others come with cash in hand. I just sold Terminus M1009 for $2500.. Why because I could and some one wanted it. It ran it was...

Oh yea. I did take it for a run with the hubs locked in. That was when I was checking it out in final QA and filling the fuel tank. I like to find annoying vibrations. You should have no vibrations with the hubs locked or unlocked. I am glad it satisfies you. I was happy with the results and...

It's a CUCV not a Cadillac. It's supposed to ride rough. Now if you were to put a Cadillac grille and some fancy trim on it. You could call it an Escalade. Worked for GM the past 20 years. HA. I have been putting new stock height springs on CUCV's makes for a firmer rattle free ride but nothing...

That wire runs over to the 12 V power point by the master cylinder. The cables are new also. Not sure how they have it wired.

:shrugs:How would anyone know that? Definite Hot Rodding and Modification of a different type. What is this vehicle? And what does it have to do with a CUCV? I had a guy mount a Cadillac on an M1009 frame. I ran from him when he ask me to work on it. It was double framed and all. Last I seen it...

Jack up the truck and let it hang from the springs. Support the frame let the axles and suspension hang to the ground and you will see what it looks like. First hand and right up front. Measure the distance on the axle bump stops tp axle and begin jacking till you add 4 inches to the original...

The passenger side floorboard gets water when coming from the footwell vent (?) when it is driven in the rain, so I need to take off those interior panels and see how that can be fixed. My guess from afar is the windshield is leaking in the lower pinch weld. I would remove the windshield and...

I know. I know. The engine cooling system rapidly looses coolant and the engine will over heat and possibly cause a catastrophic engine/transmission failure all in the time it takes to replace the coolant level sensor and maintain the stock system. Please grade me on my answer. Have a great day...

turn key, GP light comes on, push manual GP button, No reply cause I never had to turn the key and push a button. The TM's will not help if you have to push a button. Would help if I could but it is hard to tell from afar what kind of cobbling has gone on to the wiring harness. 1 wire changed...

Busy weekend I had to beat the rain. I received this load of logs from a lot they were clearing at the truck plant. I cut some in to fire wood length and had some hauled in any length that was there. I needed the trailer to run up I 78 and get some top soil for Free from a warehouse construction...

https://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?137671-CUCV-head-gasket-head-or-change-engine-survey/page18 Here you go check this out. I can side with you on the head gasket. I think if you still have the stock head gaskets at this point in time you are pushing it. It has been my experience to...

This is all good accurate information. The High Temp light (RED) should illuminate during the start cycle. While twisting the ignition switch. As I have been told twice now. The sail boat in the RED Sea is lit. What does that mean. In my case the switch is worn and the light can be activated by...

I know I sold my Mule M1009 to a Gentleman and it has a DCP Memphis pump on it. All my plow trucks have the same DCP Memphis pumps and the Easter Find M1008 has one also. I have nothing bad to say. I ran contaminated fuel thru a few and had less then favorable results but in the end they...
