    CUCV vs K20 Electrical

    I'm getting closer to actually pulling the 6.2 out of the CUCV for installation in my K20. (I have a picked over CUCV that I'm swapping the motor into my K20.) I stumbled into this (link below) great article about the CUCV Charging system, and I'm really torn. I'd like to keep the jumper plug...

    CUCV vs K20

    So, I have a 1987 K20... and a CUCV. The K20 needs an engine, and the CUCV is gutted- no instrument panel, the steering column is damaged and on the floor, the trans/T-case is gone, and the 1ton axles have been swapped with 3/4 tons. (Also, the front/rear bumpers have been removed and are in...

    Stryker Horn

    Longshot... does anyone have the part number for the Stryker horn? I know they are civilian off the shelf units (you can see the chrome if the CARC flakes off!) but along the way, I misplaced the part number...

    Can 5-ton winch adapt to an M35A2?

    Is it possible to use the winch off of an M39 or M808? I've heard that it is, but the PTO is on the opposite side... has anyone done this? Got pics? How to?

    M332 landing gear/kick stand

    First off, I suppose I should have dug up the TM... (is there one for the M332??!) My landing gear seems tweaked.. it swings and locks down, but it can't turn, or lock in the "full up" position. Is there a solution besides replacing? Is the frame itself FUBAR'd?? (Do you need more/better...

    Charlie Model bed (Bows question)

    So... the M35A2 and M35A2C. The only difference is, the drop bed, right? I was digging around in the TM, and noticed that the bows are different for the A2C. Great... I have 5 sets of A2 bows. Does anyone know the specific differences? Can you use a tarp and bow set from an A2 on a Charlie...

    Paint a Tarp top??

    I found what seems to be a good deal on a full tarp'n bow set. Just under $500 for it all, but it's white... While that might be nice in the Texas heat, it will be a pain to keep clean and presentable. Would it be possible to paint/stain/dye it at all?

    Decal prep

    I'm about to put some decals and markings on my M35A2C. It is a 1988 vintage, probably original paint. Will just a good wash and wipe with isopropyl alcohol be good enough for making sure the decals stick and hold, or should I use something else?

    M54 Fording kit on the M35A2C?

    I did a search, and I dont THINK I'm double posting, if I am, I'm sure someone will point it out! :grin: I've been looking for a fording kit for my M35A2C... and haven't had much luck. Eastern Surplus claims their M54 kit will work with "some modification" Does anyone know what those...

    M35A2 "Big Iron 1-7" (my first Duce)

    I just bought my first Duce from FuzzyToaster! 1988 M35A2C with a M332 Ammo trailer. Long run home from Dallas to Houston, but we made it! I had to leave the M332 behind, the light plug was not going into the Duce's socket, and I wasn't going to run dark (or risk running dark since the plug...

    M101A2 Axle Bearing and brake questions

    Howdy! I've got a 1983 M101A2 that has a bearing that gets uncomfortably warm after a few miles. Where would I begin to look at finding a new set of bearings? Anyone have the tech pubs on how to perform the change? Also, I've heard tell that the M101A2 has surge brakes, but as best as I can...
