    Glad you got it working! Sometimes it's the simpliest of things that cause the most problems.

    MRAP Seats

    Yeah, those green ones look like Mastercraft or Beard seats. Tons of them in the offroad world. Typically not green in color but Mastercraft even has suspension seats (that is what style these are known as) that recline. The Baja RS seat.

    I want to do this with my gauges...

    Just as an FYI to anyone looking to do a surface mount setup like in the first picture, off the truck they look great but once you mount them, you will see the downfall of this method. The factory dash face is angled downward so with the gauges flush mounted like this, you are not looking...

    Ford CUCV

    I don't know about Ford but it looks that if Dodge made a version of a CUCV. It looks like the main box is the same as a M1010 but they have the front part which I assume made it more aerodynamic.

    8$ airl filter

    Yeah, I have read many reports about K&N filters and for street driven vehicle, I might buy another one (this is coming from someone who has them on my hot rod trucks and used them for years) but for anything that goes off pavement, never again. They do not filter enough of the fine dust. I have...

    My trans is driving me crazy!

    Great, you at least found a major problem so hopefully fixing that, all will be good. As for rebuilding, I don't know but I do remember when I was searching, I could buy just the vacuum can pod part and not the whole assembly. Seemed to cut the price down about $100 over a whole assembly...

    HELP! New starter problem

    Actually I have a question, you changed over to a gear reduction starter. Did they make those in 24 volt version? Are you sure you got the right voltage? I don't recall when I was looking for replacement GR starters online, finding a 24 volt version (not that I needed one as I was going to 12...

    My trans is driving me crazy!

    Problem with that is the vacuum pump is pulling about 20" of vacuum and the modulator should only be seeing about 8". It is very possible you could have damaged the modulator going direct. Also, the vacuum switch regulates a variable signal to the modulator. Directly from the pump, there is no...

    HELP! New starter problem

    When I did my DD starter to GR starter (and moved to 12v), I had to trim off the tab on the red wire that connects to the starter. It is in the wrong location and would be very close to the soleniod before I even got it tightened down. My guess is this tab is hitting the soleniod power and...

    My trans is driving me crazy!

    I agree with Warthog, if you don't have a vacuum gauge to verify what you are getting at the trans modulator, you will be chasing your tail. Test gauges are cheap, buy one and check. Mine was a combo of bad vacuum lines and modulator. After replacing the lines and it not working, I checked...

    M1010 Won't shut off

    Hi and welcome to the M1010 club! :beer: Interesting problem. I am wondering if something is bleeding power back into the system via the DUVAC or TWINPUT. There could be a capacitor that is staying energized until it bleeds off its charge and then shuts down the power. There is a wire that...

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately? - Part 1

    Opps, I was talking about the transfer shift bezal, since I referenced that needing a light. I'll look for those screws again. Must have missed them the first time. Mine is broken off on the upper pass. side corner so I'll be hitting the junk yards.
