Here is the start of my over lander. It is not a military vehicle but works well. I lived and worked in this for 8 months while working storms in Iowa and Louisiana. It is a big foot 9,6 (short bed camper) on my 2018 GMC 3500 long bed. There is a 90 gallon diesel tank between the camper and...

I have been reading the HMMWV tm's about the alternators. I am looking to increase the electrical output on my cucv. I am considering a HMMWV 200 amp alternator but it appears they do not put out much power at low rpms. A lot of my wheeling is done at low rpms and apparently if you are only...

I am putting this out there for any one to shoot holes in the idea. looking at the HMMWV parts, the crank and water pump pully are both 4 belt. The power steering is a three belt and alt a 2 belt. I am planning to upgrade my 12volt alt on my cucv to a 200 amp. To do this I need second belt to...

I am planning to install 3 antenna on my cucv roof rack. A cb radio using a 3ft fiberglass whip. A 1 ft am/fm radio and a scanner radio. I do not have the scanner yet but I believe the antenna will be small. Is there a required spacing for these antenna. I am building a post and a mount for...

having the advertising in the thread really makes it hard to read. every thread i open has an add in the first post and the post is shrunk to a very thin column. Can this be removed, it makes the thread hard to read and I think the add banner can be placed where all the others are. This...

any one here have any suggestions on how to get the hood open when the cable is not working. I can hear the cable flopping around when I push and pull the lever in the cab. my first though is to pull the drivers side fender well out and maybe I can reach it with a hood. not sure I can pick it...

just looking at ideas for more electrical power, I was checking on alternators and have found replacements for the 27si that can go to 200 amps or more. They don't have isolated grounds so it does not help to get more 24v power but could provide more 12v power without sacraficing any of the 24v...

I am looking at the possability of a roof top hvac unit for my 1009 to be powered by a 24v to 120v inverter. I like this inverter https://www.sigineer.com/product/3000-watt-24-volt-to-120-240vac-dual-phase-pure-sine-inverter-charger/. It has built in ATS and 24V battery charging when using...

I am trying to diagnose my wiper problem. I have a new intermittant module (ac delco) and my switch is new (LMC) I have plugged in two different motors and both act the same. They appear to work on low only (when the switch is on high) and do not park. Any other switch location does nothing...

I purchased this high flow thermostat from ss diesel supply, http://www.ssdieselsupply.com/p14_super_high_flow_180_df_thermostat_wgkt_92_96.html was wondering if anyone has used it and if it worked for them. The stem is long and does not fit in the standard cucv housing but with the paradox...

I am trying to connect hoses to my oil cooler in the radiator. I have a new radiator that came with some small brass flare heads with o rings on back. From what I can tell these work with an inverted flare fitting like this: https://www.summitracing.com/oh/parts/sum-220667b/overview/ Am I...

the search function did not help me any, nor did google. Does anyone know the paint code for the inner fenders and frame on the cucv. I want to paint my inner fenders and like the gloss paint vs. the flat that is on them now. The flat is harder to clean. just trying to get the same paint...

just putting this out there for its own review. Not sure this is the right section recommended on the older engines, engine oils now are more formulated for newer engines and no longer have the good stuff for the old ones. 1 bottle each oil change recommended. I would like to get the expert...

Any one have any tips on removing the timing gear from the crank shaft. I am trying to install a gear drive and the gear pullers from autoparts stores won't fit. feet are to big to grab the groove some say (on internet) to use two jaw puller and heat it. open for any advice. cant find any on...

I have my motor out and front clip removed. My truck has been repainted except the fire wall and underside. While I wait for my motor I was considering pulling the body off the frame so I can refinish the underside and also change my body mount rubber out. can you get the 1009 body off and...

I am purchasing a 6.5 optimizer long block and I am trying to determine if I want to keep the cucv system of try to convert to a hummer serpentine belt system. I like the cucv set up in the fact there are no additional tensioners or idler's to fail, each device has ins own belt. It is easy to...

I am seeing a lot of vendors put adds for parts in the classifieds without prices. I thought a price was mandatory. I don't want to have to pm everyone when I want price, has this rule changed or is it just not being enforced, Thanks, just trying to bring notice to the issue, you can't post...
