Aloha My Peeps and CUCV Crew Members!!! I hope all is well with you all. I am planning a trip to Florida in June, to see daughter, and I am simply putting it out there that I am interested in buying another M1008 (A2), etc... I was hoping someone may know of any good leads in their neck of the...

Aloha, I am doing an interior harness replacement. I have attached pics. I am stuck as I have connected the engine harness to the 'New' stock harness, from Hillbilly Wizard. It is an original harness from another CUCV of the 1984-1986 years. I have replace the ignition switch with an AC Delco...

Aloha ALL, It has been quite some time since I have visited SS. I hope all is well and you are having a great Thanksgiving weekend, amid all the diversity, mayhem, and health matters. Nonetheless, I have a situation. I have had a good running M1008 for a good stretch, but it is now time to...

I have wondered if the grinding sound below my floor shifter, 4wheel drive, was related to my wobbly balancer. I have thought that my crank may be shot. There is no oil spilling whatsoever. I put a new flywheel about 4 thousand miles ago. New balancer about 3 thousand miles ago. Could the...

Happy Father's Day to tall the Father's out there. I hope all is well with the rest of the community as well. I am reaching out to you all in hopes for my M1008. I am questioning whether to pass on this motor and plug in a new one, go grab a used one, or keep moving forward with this one. It...

Aloha All... Makahiki Hou!!! (HAPPY NEW YEAR) I was looking for a thread on fuel tank caps... couldn't find one. Was surprised. I am looking for a locking fuel tank cap for my M1008 1986. I bought one at O'Reilly's and it was too small. I then went to NAPA and took the cap in and they looked...

Aloha All, I have to ask what anybody might think about the Air Cleaner Components. Are they necessary? I am a true believer in engineered parts being important and having a purpose. Why do mostly all CUCV pics and so forth have it removed? I purchased my CUCV without and haven't had a...

Aloha, I was wondering who might be able to jump in on this one. - 1986 M1008 6.2. - It has started fine for awhile. I want it to start like others I have seen and heard via videos or in person. My truck has new glow plugs, new/rebuild Stanadyne (IP), strong voltage, electric fuel pump, new fuel...

Wow... !!! Fun... !!! First and foremost.. Aloha All. It's been a while and I wanted to post a thread to my latest venture. I needed to replace the harmonic balancer. 1st time I did a balancer on the 6.2 diesel M1008 1986. It wasn't that difficult at all. Of course I cheated and looked at this...

So... I am about to get my new/rebuilt Injection Pump back on Monday. I thought over this waiting period of 9 days so far, that I would clean the motor and parts. Did a little painting and replaced old stuff. Gaskets and rubber stuff along with a little electrical clean-up. Super happy I did...

Aloha MY PEEPS!!! Been awhile... a lot has happened. Don't know where to begin. Well, I was working at an industrial park today and noticed a C-10 1985 Silverado scheduled to get smashed and recycled. So I jumped all over it. I needed the hood. After I was done dismantling that, I peeked...

Aloha My "PEEPS"!!! I was wondering if anyone has any experience or knowledge with Bio-Diesel. I recently pulled up to a fuel station to purchase diesel. I was one the phone and filled up my M1008 6.2 DETROIT with fuel. Then drove away, (It had a quarter tank of fuel prior to this.) I drove...

Aloha All, I recently had a post, "th400 not Upshifting/Late Shifting". I was able to receive a lot of good input and advise. So... I am starting a new post/thread to "Diagnose" this predicament that I have more precisely. I have a VRV on order. Should be here today or tomorrow. I will follow...

Aloha, My Truck is not shifting up until 35+ for 2nd and 50+ for 3rd. Not good for Tranny. I have opened up and checked shift relay/down shift switch. I have checked governor. Both good. took them to a few shops. Replaced Modulator. 4 times, due to the fact that I don't care for aftermarket...
