Have an 84 M1008. Everything works except speedo and a couple of the blackout lights. Anyway, both Gen 1 and Gen 2 lights have always worked as they should. Starter went out and I replaced it with a 24v gear reduction. Quite a task. So now, the Gen 1 light never comes on, even when you first...
I have an 84 M1008. Runs perfect, drives really good, steering is tight, transmission and transfer case work without problems. This truck came auction at Camp Shelby. I have had to do the usual things to get it road worthy and running correct. The issue I have now is while on the road there is...
Hi all, I am a newbie to cucv trucks. Always wanted one, and 2 weeks ago finally got an m100 that came from camp shelby. Thanks to the immense knowledge base here, I was able to get the truck running great. It apparently had been kept up pretty good until decommissioned. Since day 1 when I turn...
Looking at a good M1008 that's local. Runs, drives great, but has a problem. When it sits awhile it loses fuel pressure. The guy installed a new fuel pump but it didn't solve the problem. Any ideas on what's causing this, or how to fix it? Thanks!

Found my dream M1028, now I need help to get her home. Truck is located in Dayton OH area, and needs to be shipped to Tuscaloosa, AL. Please give me quotes, or advice on how to do this. I cannot take off from work to drive her home right now.
OK, looks like I might be getting my truck after all. Can someone give me an estimate on what kind of MPG an M1028 (no shelter) with 1 person would likely get? Trying to calculate fuel expenses, etc. Thanks very much!
I am sure people have done this, but is there a particular brand or type made for the M1008 or M1028 that is at least Class III/IV and fairly easy to install? I looked at the Reese site, but got kinda confused lol.
Ok, I have found my M1028, and will be getting it later this week. Now I am looking for the correct comm shelter for it. Someone told me the ones for a Humvee is bigger and gives you more room. Anyone have one of these for sale? I saw some going for around 3-500 dollars last fall on ebay. Thanks...
I am trying to help my friend diagnose and solve a starting problem he is having with his M1028 (which he wont sell to me lol). When truck is cold, you turn on key and wait for the WAIT light to go out, then it starts instantly. If you run thr truck to operating temp, and turn it off, it wont...
Looking to buy a decent, running, driveable M1028 that has everything in working order. Not looking to buy something that will put me down while driving it home. Thanks.
