It seems I was misinformed by a mechanic at work (go figure), here is what Doghead said on another thread:

I believe you will have to change out the glow plugs too as part of your conversion to 12V.

wOw Billett that's just crazy. That thing stopped being a cucv a long time ago...that is if any part of it ever was a CUCV? The front body portion of the cab/body looks more like a M880 than a CUCV, but maybe it looks different due to all the other mods. Anyway I need to get a beach...

Does this help?

Thanks, Most of it was there already. It said " For Official Use Only" All I did was take the "For" off and I matched the "U and N" font by hand with electrical tape and a razor blade.
