Nice work I was thinking about cleaning up the wiring also, but sometimes I think maybe a future owner will want to go back to stock. I think it would be a bad idea but you never know. In the end I will probably do the same one day and just save all the wiring along with the box just in case.

i looked closer at the label on the second one, its CF3BR Halon.

Does anyone know what's inside the fire extinguishers that were used in the CUCV trucks? Are they safe to still have in the truck? I have 2 that were in my M1010. Both appeared to be filled with a liquid and seem full, there's no gauge. Curious if they could have become hazardous over time...

I got them at Home Depot. about $30 a sheet 4x8

started to renovate the rear camper on the M1010 this week. I converted it to a camper a few years ago but never changed the inside walls. Last summer I changed the ceiling and this week I removed the aluminum wall panels and 1" of fiberglass insulation. I added 1-1/2" ridged foam and fiberglass...

yes steering columns are a pain. I just removed the entire dash and column from an old Scout to paint the metal dash and it was a pain to put everything back together.

I have had this M1010 for a number of years. When I first got the truck I was having problems keeping the batteries charged. I did make the conversion posted under M1010's to remove the blue box and one 24 volt alternator. I replaced it with a heavy truck 12 volt version of the same make that...

thanks I was thinking a previous owner added it instead of replacing the key switch that had a problem.

Quick question about my M1010. I am currently having a starting problem and before I get to deep into it I want to see if anyone has the same starter setup as my truck. It has a standard key ignition switch but you only turn this to the on position. once the glow plug light goes out, there is a...

still working for me also. nice and simple

I took my M1010 on a weekend trip to the beach 2 weeks ago. this was the first trip with the new alternator set up. everything worked great. charged both batteries and had good 12 volt supply for my camper items. I would recommend this for others. the only modification I needed to do was some...

thanks for the info. I made the plan B swap this weekend and it worked great. I get 13.7 volts. I think I would get the 14.2 volt that is listed for the new unit but both of my belts are a little loose. When I got the truck a few years ago the belts were shredded. The best fit from my parts...

I got my M1010 around 4 years ago. it was last used as a service truck so some of the ambulance parts in the back were replaced with tool storage. I converted the back to a camper. propane stove, heater and a sink. added a bed and folding table and a small window in each side. I use it surf...

I think I am ready to try the alternator swap. I have thetypical M1010 charging problems. I just cleaned all the connections to both alternatorsand the DUVAC and that did not help. I did find a broken “jumper wire” betweentwo terminals on the DUVAC. It had a tag on it stating it was a...
