    Best source for exhaust?

    I've had to replace the exhaust system from the muffler back - including the muffler - on a couple of my CUCV's and I went to a local shop - told them I had three systems to inspect and repair - went with 2 1/4 pipe and a three chamber free flow muffler - not only does it FEEL like more power...

    A rack to make Dolly Jealous

    EXCELLENT CALL I like what was done, but those sharp corners will catch on ALL sorts of things if you are going where the manufacturers of that rack went in their you tube video's. Lots of low hanging branch's can grab at things BUT I LOVE THE OVER ALL LOOK and the design is great And the...

    cucv floormat

    the ORIGINAL pattern is unavailable - I've looked for more than six years the new stuff IS molded, but not the best fit - you WILL have to trim it just to get it to fit and even then it may not lay down correctly AND this should be done on a warm summer day - when you can lay that puppy out...

    Electrical Gremlins

    do the fuel gauge and the voltmeter work at all? If not, check up under the dash on the drivers sidewall. There is a ground that can be bad - broken - etc and it MAY (probably not) be the issue - ain't electrical issues fun??

    Request for GP replacement assistance - Police Involved

    If you want to REALLY piss off the po-po, do just what dstang97 says, except add a mail box to it. ONCE you make it YOUR mailbox, it becomes a FEDERAL CASE if ANYONE messes with it. There was a rich oil man in Abilene who had a twenty foot pumper put on his front lawn so EVERYBODY knew how he...

    Request for GP replacement assistance - Police Involved

    I would PUSH it from one location on your property to another. If they return requesting you to start it, tell them any one can see you've moved it since last time. IF they want to see it run, you are a busy man and you will be happy to schedule some time for them sometime next year, say April...

    M1008 Melting battery cables

    the INSIDES of almost any battery cable WILL rust, break (micro-breaks) and basically become a very poor conductor of electricity over time. If you have NOT replaced your battery cables - all four of them, do your truck a favor and change them. It should make it much easier to start.

    CUCV Dana 60 axles

    That's just NOT TRUE. When I run my M1028A2 at OR BELOW 60 mph, I get 15 mpg. When I run my M1028A2 AT 65 MPH, I get 10 mpg. I did this for three days last year when I drove it from PA to CO... plug in any numbers you want - but with 4.56 gears and 16 tires, you can go 65 mph SAFELY and stay...
