    LD, LDT, LDS Horsepower and Torque

    I did the same thing, but got 6. Some dealer must have bought at least 40 of them. Now I have to figure out pickup and shipping to Oregon. I have 2 lds engines and was hoping they could be used as spares for my friends and my own deuces. I'm happy to hear they work with the LDT. Thanks

    1009 on WMO

    I forgot to add mileage was bad and power was down to 70% or less of normal but it would get up to freeway speeds. I haven't gone back to it because I didn't think adding diesel to my concoction would payoff enough to make it worthwhile in the work involved and if the MPH still suffered and your...

    1009 on WMO

    I ran mine about 2k miles on waste atf and old varnished gas from a wrecking yard. 2k was the limit. It carboned up and began to lose power bad. Boy did that concoction stink. It would take a jogger to her knees in the blue cloud. It was by far the worst smelling stuff I ever witnessed coming...

    LD, LDT, LDS Horsepower and Torque

    Are the LDT and LDS injection pumps the same? Basically are they swappable? I see the turbo's c&d don't seem to have any difference in HP and the difference in HP between LDT trucks probably is due to how the IP is set. One last question, is the turbo the same on the LDS & LDT? Thanks

    CUCV 1009 daily driver?

    You can take the top off for the summer. I did that one summer. I didn't need ac until the temp rose over 98.6.

    speedometer died

    My speedo bounces around too. Seems to be a common problem. I had a spare out of my parts rig. Put it in and that one bounced even more. Put the original back in and on one cold morning a couple of months ago it started making a huge racket when it got near freeway speed. Sounded like the gears...

    CUCV 1009 daily driver?

    I use mine as a daily driver. Mine is in drive as soon as the idle smooths out... about 5 seconds. I don't give it a heavy throttle for the 1st mile and my drive to work is short. I see people warm up their gas engines for 5 minutes or more too, so each his own.

    M1009 trailer: M416 OR M101XX

    I say get the M101a2. The hitch on my M1009 has pulled a car trailer with a m1008 on board. The problem wasn't with the hitch but the towing ability of the blazer especially the brakes. I think you can overload a M101 but if its a a2 with the surge brakes working well you should be fine. Stay...

    m101a3 convert to dually wheels

    Heres what I have a3 axle under a a2 box. The HMMWV tires stick out past the fenders and so do the CUCV wheels (M1008) and tires but not as much. I'm wondering if 16.5" dually wheels will fit over the drum. I have tried 16 in dually wheels and they don't fit over the drum. The dually wheel would...

    Possible Deuce Purchase

    I just sold a deuce, the guy that I sold it to didn't even open the hood. Just gave me the money and drove it about 200 miles home at night. It was a good runner, but the sale went so fast that I didn't think about tire changing tools or advise him about bringing his own. Having a flat in the...

    Surge brake damper

    Please help, I have searched and could not find the correct part number for the surge brake damper on a M101a2. Any manufacturer and the associated part number and I believe I could then cross reference it. Thanks, Greg

    trailer id

    My dog hates anything to do with explosives as marked on the trailer. The 4th of July is a nightmare for him. Even a bubble gum pop makes him leave the room. Lighting a burning torch will cause him to head for the hills. He went missing 17 days last 4th.

    trailer id

    I got this trailer awhile back because the sides drop as well as the tailgate. It was pointed out to me that it would be a good candidate for a dump trailer. Curious if anyone has ever seen another like it. It had explosive markings on every side.

    M416 and M101 trailer lunettes the same??

    I have a trailer where they cut the lunette and made a swivel, welded the ball mount on one end and the lunette ring on the other. I should take a picture of it. It it the only one I have ever seen. Not that I like it that way, I wish I had a whole lunette for it too. I heard they make...

    20 inch wheels

    Ok, I talked at length with a wheel tire expert and the 1100rx20 michelin will not fit a passenger tire /pickup rim. There is nowhere for the bead which is in excess of 1" to go inside the wheel. They can't be mounted. They are designed for a split ring wheel only. Marsh racing and stockton...
