Hello XanRa I was wondering about the Bulldog 4spd trans. Im not familiar with that trans. Is it a manual or auto and is it a 4spd granny or is it an overdrive? Also is the Banks turbo bad or is it just not hooked up to the motor? A Banks turbo with good bearings costs about as much as that...

Are you looking into putting a 4911 IP on it that is built and tuned for a turbo? Also if you are able or willing to install them I've heard of a timing gear set you can upgrade to as well that will eliminate the problem with slack in the stock timing chain. Along with the hopped up IP and...

I agree. Off Road Design is one of the only places you can call with questions about doing a lift on a cucv and not have them ask you....What is a cucv???

Hey Kevin-m1008 one thing you might not be expecting when you go to de-tune your injection pump is that the allen screw in there will be pretty hard to turn. Almost to the point that it feels like something is wrong with it but don't worry it is supposed to be hard to turn. LOL and for a couple...

I was just wondering....How high do your EGT's get at 1/4 of a turn without a load if you sustain 50 or 55 mph and is the EGT probe threaded into the exhaust manifold?

Here this might help you out a little. It's how I figured out how to really do that.

When the symptoms you are describing begin to occur it is almost always the fuel filter base. According to The GM 6.2 Liter Diesel Engine manuel GM actually made a seal repair kit for the model 80 fuel filter base part #s 10471933 and 10471064 because the model 80 base was defective from the...

Just to start from the begening with mine. I started out with a pretty bad leak in my fuel filter base which is probly not your problem if the truck starts without excessive cranking. I converted it to a racor spin on and that fixed that. later on mine started doing the sputtering with a dead...

Hey neighbor. I had a problem like that not too long ago that turned out to be a leaking fuel line. Hopefully it is not the check ball in the return line like stated above.

Unfortunately it does. It's not as bad as if you put a small block gas motor in it or anything but I does move the fuel gauge slightly more than it used to at 50 or 55mph. At 25 or 35mph I don't think it effects it though. Anyhow If I had it to do over again I would still do it just because it...

Recently I converted my M1028 to a lightweight flat bed that is decked over with wood. I also turned up the fuel delivery screw an 1/8th of a turn with straight through mufflers ect. With about 40psi of air in the 34' super swamper LTB tires I can get mine to do a burn out on the steep part of...

What year truck did it come out of and does it have a serpentine belt. If it is a J-code 6.2L civi motor with a serpentine belt then as far as civi vs military goes the serp belt 6.2 is supposed to be a better motor than the civi or military non serp belt motor. If it is a three belt civi motor...

Yes that is your heater core and rather than buying a new one at the auto parts store I would strongly recomend getting your leaking one rebuilt. The one I got from the parts store is such an incredible POS compared to the mil-spec one. I wish I had just got mine re-built.

A few months back I installed an interior light for a trailer that I got from The Home Depot. That thing is crazy bright but anyhow I didn't have any trouble with drilling through the ceiling and hitting the roof with the bit. At least not hard enough to make any noticable dents. When I went to...

I really like that center console, back seat, and paint. Heck I'd go as far as to say that for a military blazer that thing doesn't just look good....Thats straight up pimped!!!!

Your best bet for trying to tow that with a cucv would be an M1028 with dual rear wheels. Whatever you do DO NOT try to hook something like that to the stock cucv pintle hitch. Im not sure what the exact rating is on the stock pintle hitch but I believe it is in the 5000lb range. Me personally I...

Wow that's the cleanest truck I've seen in a while. Since it's an M1028 I am assuming it has a limited slip front diff. If it starts up and runs as good as it looks I certainly wouldn't let it go for less than 5K. Thats my 2cents

When I replaced the window felt on mine I had both door pannels off the truck and tested duplicolor vinyl paint and krylon black camo paint on the insides of the pannels where you can't see it. I found that the vinyl paint worked the best so I painted the outsides of the pannels, dash, and...

If you were wanting to see that lifted contact maintenance truck just look him up in the members list at the top. He uses his big contact truck for his avatar/profile pic.

There is a member on here that goes by chevkeith that I have exchanged PM's with that has an ENORMOUS contact maintenance body truck. It is truly something to behold. I don't think he's been on here for a good while though.
